Sierra Hull: Instrumental | Jubilee | KET
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2013
- Mandolin prodigy Sierra Hull performs on the 2013 season of Jubilee, recorded live at the 2012 International Bluegrass Music Association Fan Fest in Nashville.
Considered one of the top young mandolin players in bluegrass today, Sierra Hull calls her mandolin performances "playing with a point to prove" and her singing as "doing the songs justice."
When Hull, native of Byrdstown, Tenn., was 11 years old, bluegrass legend Alison Krauss called her with an invitation to perform at the Grand Ole Opry. At the age of 13, Hull was signed to Rounder Records, and she released her debut album, Secrets, just three years later at the age of 16. Over three years, she has been nominated for five IBMA awards, and Berklee College of Music in Boston awarded her its Presidential Scholarship, a first for a bluegrass musician.
This Jubilee episode (which also features Balsam Range) is available to watch at www.KET.org/jubilee. You can catch more 2012 Fan Fest performances in the Jubilee RUclips playlist: • Jubilee

It is a wonderful mix. Their talent and passion makes it look so effortless. But they’ve been at it for so many y e a r s.
She’s a talent beyond this world
Fantastic. I was hoping she'd do an instrumental version of "Dear 23." This, here, is utter control of instruments.
I can't stop coming back and listening to this. Bluegrass, has grown and and changed for new generation. Beautiful.
Bluegrass????? LOL! Not even close. I don't know exactly where you would place this kind of music,but it's not Bluegrass. Some would classify it contemporary BG,but it's not.It's entirely different.I wish they would separate it from BG. It doesn't belong on the same stage.I'm not demeaning the players. They are good, and they also play BG,but this isn't it.
Bassist, Jacob Eller is the quiet, non-flashy foundation. His performance is consistently solid and tasteful. Watch him here, stand center stage and provide the backbone for this fantastic band. A master musician.
I have to wonder about his reaction when she asked whether he had a bow with him -- don't think of that as standard issue for a bluegrass bass player...
Actually, he's not just some hack bassist she ran into. But, he does know his limitations. Sierra asked him for a bassist for some of her songs. He said he couldn't do it and referred her to Jodziewicz who was a recent graduate of Berklee and a very impressive bassist.
This is probably the most astounding performance sierra and her crew have ever done. If you can't see that, you have no soul.
+Quakeboy02 Then I must be a shoe cobbler, cause I too think this is their best piece ever.
Be sure to check out her "Old Dangerfield" with the same crew minus the fiddle. I would like to think that even Bill Monroe would approve of the small woman with the big mandolin playing his tune like that, though I wouldn't expect him to think much of women in bluegrass in general (even though I have no data on his opinions on the subject).
It turns out that this is a combination of "Stranded" and "Nahatlatch" composed by Mark Simos.

Outstanding, absolutely, but MOST astounding? Gee, I don’t know, she has done so many astounding pieces. It’s nice to consider them all, though.
I really wish she would release some more albums. I want to hear more of these other songs, and also some classical music.
+Alexander Lee One coming out in January. Produced by Sierra and Bela Fleck.
Search in RUclips for 'Sierra Hull Bach'. She and Ethan do a really nice Bach. I saw her do it at Frankfort BG festival in 16. I told her I wish she'd do some more. Maybe Vivaldi?!
love that Mandy playin... she is so accurate
To people wondering about tune names: she has put together two tunes, the first is on her "Weighted Mind" album and called "Stranded"; on the album she pairs it with another of her own called "Compass". Here, however, she pairs it with another instrumental tune called Nathatlatch, by a different artist named Mar Simos.

Yep... I was really hoping for an instrumental version of "Dear 23." Or was it 22? lol.
Moving is the more apt term here, oh those chills and tears of joy!
Cant wait to hear them live Feb 28 at the #DCBluegrassFest2015

I wish I could find out what song this is. I emailed her publicist, but she couldn't find out for some reason. This song is so moving it's hard to listen to. My granddaughter calls it winter. The version done at Delfest, she calls summer.
the second tune is "Nahatlatch" by Mark Simos
Hmm, maybe a musical relationship to the original Bombshell, though ;). ...and it is a real treat. Thank you, Sierra, and all your crew. Development happens, doesn't it. A smile on that too...
She's reused the first part again in a performance at Columbia Gorge Bluegrass Festival in Stevenson Washington this year (2015). She performed a duet with Ethan Jodziewicz on the double bass. It's a good piece. Also with Ethan she performs a piece called "E Tune". Catch them both if you. There may be more, I haven't looked yet.
+Quakeboy02 Yes, I've listened to e-tune, one of her best, along with this.
Here's a word no one's used yet...Beautiful. And that I mean in a classical sense. It doesn't seem like bluegrass to me (I LOVE Bluegrass). All the right instruments are there, but it is definitely something else. But it is beautiful! I've watched it about four times in a row and here I go again.
agreed, this is a lot different than most bluegrass, but it's great.
It's a more Celtic flavored instrumental. Sounds like something Chris Thile would record.
Guy Faulkes I reminds me of the stuff released on the Windham Hill label in the late 70' to 80's.
Bluegrass is more than just major pentatonic riffs. And I do hear a lot of Celtic influence in many bluegrass songs from different players.
When I hear this song, I imagine a rippling creek surrounded by blue spruce and curious deer. Bluegrass through and through. :)
9 years later and this is still my favorite Sierra Hull song, and she didn't even compose the core of it.
Although I can't find the correlation with Bombshell as I know it, it was fantastic. Totally loved it! :)
There's another video from this concert of Bombshell, I guess the original title was mixed up with that or something.
I agree. She should change the title to something like 'Dynamite'. She is just a genius.
Hey just so you know, this isn't Bombshell unless there's another version of it that I'm unaware of. Im not sure what it is. It's still awesome and thanks for uploading!
Will this be on the new album? btw, where is the new album? And when will there be a tour through europe?
Looks like they fixed the title, but we still don't know what it's called, just the best thing she's ever done.
The first part is called "Stranded"; she does it on an album, Weighted Mind I think, paired with another tune called "Compass". The second part it seems to me I've heard on Bela Fleck album, but I haven't looked up its name. You can see a RUclips recording of "Stranded/Compass" from a concert she did in Portland, OR, with Ethan Jodiewicz and Justin Moses, from Mark's Memories.
@@rtpjavaman "Stranded" is a very small bit of this composition. The rest is "Nahatlatch".
what's the name of the tune? please!
+Simon Jesus Mora V "Stranded" it was recently released in her new record Weighted Mind. It has lyrics though! ;)
Anyone know who wrote this?
+guitartec I'm pretty sure Sierra Hull, but there was confusion on the name. I heard it once but forget. Hopefully it is on her new album.
This could be a very nice Phish song as well.
Is anyone capable of telling me what cross picking pattern she is using at the beginning?
The acoustic guitar looks to be an old laminated Yamaha FG-150 or 160 guitar from the late 60's or early 70's.
Whatever it is, it was played very well here.
@@randalbladel2817 Agreed! The point, however, is that you NEVER, EVER see an old Yamaha acoustic in Bluegrass, Country or any other type of music, so sticking to the theory that a great guitarist can make anything sound great, the proof is right here! : D
Nope, not "Bombshell" - should change the title as it's misleading. Good tune though.
I excluded the bass player at least he made an attempt by wearing a sports jacket. Well some people have no standards. I wouldn't let them in the back door of my club.
I bet they burp at the table and don't wash there hands either yuk
+SHADOWMAN296 Some people give so much... then the jerks try to tear them down (sigh) Have fun at your club, I think I'll hang with the happy people.
Wouldn't catch me in your boring snobby club. I detect you have a strange and offensive body odor.
No one cares
