It's such a pleasure and joy to watch and listen these guys playing their music. Bluegrass easily keeps up with Gypsy Jazz and Flamenco. What a joy listening to it!
I've listened to and watched this performance many times. The fiddle screaming to the heavens after the end of the bridge, "YEEEE HAWWW!" never gets old. I thought he was going to saw it in half. 😄
Sure Tony is proud of him on this rendition, always listening from above. We send love, with blessings for your career Billy. Mrs. Tony Rice and daughter India.
This young man is without a doubt the best up and coming bluegrass picker and singer I have heard in a very long time. I have been a fan ofbluegrass since back in the 60's....He just makes my old heart sing. Never tire of watching him!
Feel the same, Pat Ryan. I'm 76 and cannot get enough! Sweet that we have RUclips and can watch the evolution of his music... he was a bright light right from the start.
I'll agree Billy is awesome! Watch Will Jones do Freeborn man on RUclips. He's very talented too, I'm A big Jimmy Martin fan and I'm glad these young men are playing the old songs they made big back in the day.
Why did he look so emotional a couple of times? Most talent I have ever seen, heard, and I 've been around a LONG time!! That fiddle player is unworldly! Lol
These young men have made Bluegrass new and fresh. It reminds me of the electric guitar and then Jimi Hendrix changed everything and for the better music is always changing but Bluegrass is the shit!!
Billy has been gathering the masses! When you call a friend to ck. his band out. And she tells you I am trying to book him for a concert! You know the secret is out!
I so love that the younger generation is keeping this music going. Beautiful, I remember back in my day (1970's) at my friend's house in MT. Dancing on these bare floor to this music. No shoes required. Best of times. Sending boomer love to y'all
@@V8trickshot wudn the boomers , son, twas the banks and the realtors. f&cked us all. wanted to move out of our first house, but the interest rate went from 7 5/8 to 12%! Stuck us in that shitty split level for 30 years. n stick to listenin to the music,youngster.
@@z06king I remember my parents buying a house in 1979 and the interest rate was 14%. The boomers and in my case my parents who were older than the boomers had nothing to do with crashing any market. The laws that made it way too easy for under qualified people to get loans ended up screwing a lot of people.
Yet another terrific version of this standard/classic song. Guest musicians Andy Dunnigan and Jake Simpson from the Lil' Smokies really did smoke 🔥 and added some elegant, masterful and tasty seasoning to performance. Well done boys. ✨👍
what is also great with him is that even if he is the undisputed leader of the group everyone is in their place in the group and he lets everyone do their solo it must be pure pleasure to play with him and to have him as a leader. he pulls all the musicians from the top. he is completely inhabited by this music and I even wonder sometimes if he is not an alien.
If you guys weren't born pre-70's, no insult, just sad facts you were not Freeborn. Hope you all maybe few that some how escape todays tyranny and at least get to live ...Freeborn.
@@V8trickshot Well now don't be verify to harsh what I wrote. We got to know and find are true history. Wasn't us. We had to suffer the harder 80's housing crash and the 08' but we knew who really was behind it. Treasure your right elders as they only hand the sacred knowledge of everything to those who seek it and know how to hold it like Billy Strings. You seem to be of the rare breed they tried killing off in many Wars and don't doubt were kind of the same, in this together. Don't hold onto may things they tried indoctrinating you with harder then they tried on us. Music like this was what kept us real ones together. The market crasher's are the same lineage of the ones who caused the 1873' World Economy Panic, The Great depression, created "Public Education" indoctrination system to keep parents from doing like Billy's Dad did in handing down the life skills he needed to learn. Didn't mean you no insult, Truth fears no scrutiny and is Treason in a growing Empire of Lies.Always seek knowledge and avoid pitfalls of blame with anything that will leave you short of finding the whole truth of everything. Billy can bring much back around and impact the same opressor's of all times. They love the real music was dying and they controlled the glitz/Glamour Pop/Country Culture fame of today in knowing they can make masses vote in blind follow. Billy has invites to step on stages of Fame any day he wants but he is an Old Soul not interested in money and Fame. He's going to get it the old fashioned way by earning it and doing things his way not the statist's/conformists ways. You got chance to be part of turning things around in some really trying times of decades. Just try and find who your true enemy is. I doubt they would be any part followers of Billy. Godspeed and may you truly seek my word as not being Freeborn is trying to inform you, you face more opression/uphill battle then most and as I said: If your living any form of it, you got the torch of real liberty/Freedom in your hand. Just never not accept knowledge you need to carry it high as the most needed is hardest to hear and you will find in time, there is no bad knowledge and its all around you and the music was tight part of "The People" that stood against Tyranny all through out time. The roots of Billy's Bluegrass goes way back then I'm pretty sure you would know and held the real ones together. Don't let intentionally planted beliefs to inhibit this New come around that is going to catch "Them " off "guard, when Billy explodes on scene and they find "They" cannot buy him off. You better lose yourself in the music, the moment, You own it, You never let it go, you only get one shot, do not miss your chance to BLOW!!! This opportunity only comes once in a lifetime.

Holy Moly!!!!! That is the most intense guitar/fiddle interchange I've ever seen.
This never gets old ❤!!
Billy Strings is a national treasure
Jake Simpson on fiddle and Billy on guitar are amazing.
It's such a pleasure and joy to watch and listen these guys playing their music.
Bluegrass easily keeps up with Gypsy Jazz and Flamenco.
What a joy listening to it!
Love how Billy shares his stage with all of his band. No ego problems there, absolutely awesome.
Very reminiscent of jamming with Jerry and company. I'm loving it too!
True passionate artist ❤
We are so lucky to have youtube and people who film these amazing gigs
Our pleasure Declan. Glad you enjoyed it!
Okay for a hot second I was literally waiting for an instrument to burst into 🔥 and an arm to fall off 😂
Yeah, the room could have exploded from all that energy and heat.😀
I've listened to and watched this performance many times. The fiddle screaming to the heavens after the end of the bridge, "YEEEE HAWWW!" never gets old. I thought he was going to saw it in half. 😄
Greyfox 2019 got me through the Pandemic...
That makes me happy Jay!
@@LessThanFaceProductions1 Did we have chicken BBQ together by chance at Ossipee? Keep up the great work!
@@Jaysipp I think so Jay! Looking forward to Ossipee 23 already!
I come back to this performance often. Does anyone agree if we put more music in our schools we would have less guns? 😍😍😍😍
Idk if it would solve that problem but it would solve a lot. Music cures a lot
It depends on the music. Bluegrass is the opposite of urban music.
@@tomf429racist alert 🚨
I listen to Billy strings and now enjoy more guns
Influence is crucial.
He is always happy playing on stage. He needs to be there. The excitement he gets from playing live shows is infectious, and makes me happy
@Adrian T underrated reply, even if it’s only a day old 😂
When billy went back and forth with the violinist it sent a shiver down my spine. Sooooo good.
Thats a fiddle son
@@biga2568 Yes you are correct...how stupid of me!
I just sat here and thought to myself "holy fuckin shit"
@raketmeneer Are you kidding!? Nothing will take away that feeling, Billys plucking is too powerful!
I’ve seen Billy at other shows try to do that call and response and most don’t nail it like this fiddler. Impressive
I can give him no higher compliment than this: He puts a smile on my face like Tony Rice does.
Yuuuuuuuup. Just too grease dang mother slipping cool.
I’d say for me, he’s make Ole Jimmy Martin proud. He channeled that tenor of his at the beginning
Sure Tony is proud of him on this rendition, always listening from above.
We send love, with blessings for your career Billy.
Mrs. Tony Rice and daughter India.
@@Quamela I’m honored to have you comment on this. Tony is my all time favorite. May God comfort you and India.
Truth
Keep coming back to watch this....unbelieveable...especially the last 3/4 minutes....how they all communicate musically is amazing
Billy Strings + Lil Smokies is great
The way Billy celebrates his peers is a beautiful thing.
Indeed. 👍
Love watching him interacting with other players and the audience.
Sign in the background "no smoking 🚭 " .....them men just smoked those strings! Whew!
This young man is without a doubt the best up and coming bluegrass picker and singer I have heard in a very long time. I have been a fan ofbluegrass since back in the 60's....He just makes my old heart sing. Never tire of watching him!

I'll agree Billy is awesome!
Watch Will Jones do Freeborn man on RUclips. He's very talented too, I'm A big Jimmy Martin fan and I'm glad these young men are playing the old songs they made big back in the day.
And, he has a great voice. That's rare
You're so right ... we will stay tuned for sure
All talented musicians. Love the solos. Fiddle guy is on fire! Always awestruck hearing you play.
Why did he look so emotional a couple of times? Most talent I have ever seen, heard, and I 've been around a LONG time!! That fiddle player is unworldly! Lol
Billy String's has the best Banjo picker...reminds me of Del's Boy!!! He has that Banjo Picker/Poker Face...
Rick Webb he is a KILLER PLAYER man. Was thinking that too
The mandolin player's brother is Cory Walker. Pull him up on RUclips if you want to hear some sick banjo.
@@curtisbeasley3443 you ain't kidding!!!
Curtis Beasley will chk it out
@@dreambeliever3652 hes got the RBF though
I love how Billy let's the light shine on the others! He is very humble! Billy Bad Ass!
I was worried over the last 20 years or so, but now I can die knowing bluegrass is in good hands. What a relief....
It's been in good hands for a while. You just need to get out a bit more.
It sure is! Also, I'd suggest getting right with God before you die, to make sure you're in good hands!
These young men have made Bluegrass new and fresh. It reminds me of the electric guitar and then Jimi Hendrix changed everything and for the better music is always changing but Bluegrass is the shit!!
I'm absolutely in love
That BANJO PLAYING!!!! Killing it dude! Tasty
I agree, that call & answer made the show 😃🤘👍
I keep coming back to it! I bet Billy would love to have Jake to play with regularly. They are equally uniquely talented.
This guy rejuvenated my guitar picking. Love him and his band...
This guy will come to be the best bluegrass guitarist/performer of all time, imo
He's a phenom, no doubt. An absolute heavy.
But Tony Rice he ain't.....
Just a bunch of great cats 😎
I am constantly amazed how Billy can keep the authenticity true to the nut yet breathe new fire in to the song. Its amazing!
Every cat on that stage is just burn in’ . Love the additional players. Just great.
Absolutely love the violin player!
Fiddle 🎻...😉
Billy has come a long way. Congratulations. Keep it up.
Look at the banjo players face during Billys intro he looks so done 😂😂😂 all jokes aside these guys are the best out there. I love it
Resting Banjo Face - Billy Failing always looks like that onstage. 😂
BFF = Billy Failing Face..... it’s a thing
Lol he was literally yawning some point
Omg Billy and all his guys are so amazing! I am blown away! Hardcore bluegrass! That's what I been calling it!♥️♥️♥️♥️
A talented bunch of younngsters...And great to see them having fun too.
I feel it....never gets old
Amazing ❤️. Many lovely times!!!!
Talented young fellas!
Doesn't get much better than this! Billy Stings is by far the most phenomenal guitarist I've ever heard. Love to see him. Somewhere
I love this kid ❤
Breathtaking musicianship! Love it!
Jesus H. Christ, Billy's good! It just ain't fair. I have strings older than he has. He is gifted. In fact, his entire band is. :-)
A great band. Love bluegrass!!!
when a great musician gives his love
That's a song that my hero Jimmy Martin 'The king of bluegrass' made big. I'm glad to see these young guys carrying it on and putting new stuff to it.
Man I just can't get enough! Grew up in Galax. Bluegrass capital of planet earth and...Billy kills it! Once in lifetime Bluegrass artist.
God. Damn. 🫠
So nice to see the result of obvious hard work and musical ability carrying the bluegrass mantle...
Influence is crucial. You guys are amazing musicians.
As good as it gets!
I grew up with The Ozark Mountain Daredevils and would love to hear them cover Black Sky and Standing on the Rock.
Absolutely AWESOME!!!!
God bless you Billy Strings!, and them fingers your wearing out on that GuitBox I hope I can get there one day!
SOOOOO MUCH FUNNNNNN!!!!
Killer Performance by All !!!
Oh, it was hot and humid that weekend. Thanks for the memories, Face. 🏵️
Everyone here on Fire!🔥
An old musical soul in a young man's body. Fantastic!
..... just a down home funky evening in the Catskills..... State of NY... imagine that......!
Billy has been gathering the masses! When you call a friend to ck. his band out. And she tells you I am trying to book him for a concert! You know the secret is out!
I come back to this video every few days just to hear that that soulful dobro lick at 3:53. God, that's good stuff
It’s sooo good
You miss so much! Start at 3:40!
Can’t get enough!🙌🏼💕
Thank you for keeping Tony Rice alive. Well done! Gorgeous!!
This is crazy! No one should be that good. I have zero talent. Lol! This guy is amazing, as are all these musicians.
I so love that the younger generation is keeping this music going. Beautiful, I remember back in my day (1970's) at my friend's house in MT. Dancing on these bare floor to this music. No shoes required. Best of times. Sending boomer love to y'all

Some serious TASTINESS going on here with ALL these players! BAD!!!
Can't wait to see the Boys and Billy LIVE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tooooooo gooooooood! Freedom ain’t worth nothing, but it’s free!!👍✌️😊🙏🏼🎵🎶🎶🎶🎵🎶🎵
Hell yea love Jimmy Martin 🔥🔥💥💥
One of them rare talents where everyone wonders how they got so damn good. Most people play their whole life and don*t get half this good
He is so good that it cant help me to improve my picking since we are comparing different universes
Damn my phone caught fire with this heat 🔥🔥🔥
Yet another terrific version of this standard/classic song. Guest musicians Andy Dunnigan and Jake Simpson from the Lil' Smokies really did smoke 🔥 and added some elegant, masterful and tasty seasoning to performance. Well done boys. ✨👍
A legend is born the band is fantastic he is so far away when performing it’s amazing 🇬🇧
My face fell off! AWESOME!!!!!!
FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!!
New fan of bluegrass and man, Billy Strings is ridiculously good. Thanks for capturing and sharing!
Check out Tony Rices version of this. Trey Hensley too!

Someone should have pointed out that "No Smoking" sign as these boys are on fire.
Man this just made my Friday night!! What awesome musicians. 🎸🎻

Just great

2 years and a day. How easy life was then........
I found humor in the No Smoking sign in the back while the fiddle player was smoking on the fiddle.
