- Western AF presents Noeline Hofmann
...
Friends and neighbors, Miss Noeline Hofmann. Cowgirl, songwriter, biggest heart on the prairie, has written a song for rancher resilience. Her early years of working in the plains of Alberta as a ranch hand near the Saskatchewan river was such an inspiration to her that she couldn’t keep these beautiful songs locked up. While dealing with the everyday hardships of being a cowhand, Noeline listened to the stories of her co-workers and bosses. Expressing the everyday gambles and trials of working the land. That’s where “Purple Gas,” the anthem or love note to ranching culture, was born. A song that will live in infamy with the hope that it never becomes a lament for the most under-appreciated job in the west.
Thank you to Maggie Geis for helping us produce this piece and being our Canadian production wrangler in a land we barely knew.

Wowza, between her and Colter Wall, the prairies of Western Canada are saving country music
Yeah no kidding!! Colters the best!!
Zach Bryan , Sturgil and myself. Are keeping it down here in the US
Don't forget about Bella White! Criminally underrated.
This version is the best. You can hear the soft, earthy tones that make her voice so unique and relatable.
We couldn't agree more!
The gems on vhs and western af recordings are like that, they pick up the subtleties that the studio filters out or something. Always the best versions of songs, besides unamplified, in person, these guys get it the best.
Soft, earthy tones? This is a woman’s voice not a wine tasting. Calm down.
"Purple Gas" is a love letter to the prairies, a tribute to the unsung heroes who work tirelessly to feed and fuel a nation. It's a song that reminds us of the importance of roots, of the enduring connection between people and place. And in its quiet, unassuming way, it's a song that celebrates the extraordinary beauty of ordinary life.
I can't wait to witness where Noeline takes us next in her creative journey.
"I think Montana is just Southern Alberta"
I already loved the song but that last little quip sold me. I hope this girl goes far
Definitely get the same feeling as when I caught Colter for the first time in 2017. On the verge of generational-legend status haha
Big love for hometown Canadians making a name for themselves in country music ❤️
LETS GO GiRLS
Music like this heals the soul.
Amen
As beautiful as this song is… if you grew up on a farm/ranch, or are still there, this hits you just a tad bit different.
Yep. That’s true.
i mean come on. "iv got plates for purple gas, about the only break i catch. but im not the kind of man the blame the dealer on a losing hand". the first fooking line has more magic than anything iv heard on the radio in 10 years. idk what politics go into who we hear on the radio but i can tell you 100% its not because they are the best. damn Canadians are whoopin our ass out here! lol fantastic song. cheers
Baby girl I have not been home to western canada for 5 years
I forgot what purple gas was
Thank you for reminding me
I love you
So good!!! I would love to hear a duet with Colter, just a couple folks from northern Montana lol
Oh girl, I hope you get all the recognition you deserve.
We saw her play it live for the first time in Montana this summer! Beautiful and haunting.
So good!
She and Colter Wall needs to do a song together ASAP
i approve of this message
@@WesternAF ❤️❤️❤️
Hopefully one day we’ll see that on Western AF!!!
I really hope a version gets put on Spotify that's just her singing it. Zach Bryan's cool and all but this should be her song and her song alone.
Zach Bryan is such basic tier vapid garbage. He gives the impression of being deep and full of substance, but never delivers. The lyrics are incredibly sophmoric at best. I can see why women love his music so much.
@@whiteyfisk9769 Yeah, I'm not the biggest fan. I mean, I'd rather listen to his stuff than shit like Florida Georgia Line and Blake Shelton, but gimme Colter Wall, Colby Acuff, Charley Crockett, and so on.
If you aren't Canadian you just don't understand them meaning of pumping PURPLE GAS
@@pinkkfloydd exactly, i agree with you whole heartedly there. If you like those artists, check out Ian Noe too, especially his first 2 albums. Incredible songwriter, its an honest shame covid killed his momentum.
@@whiteyfisk9769not replying to cause arguing, i respect everyone having opinions and am saying mine, personally i listened to Zach Bryan almost everyday for EVER almost starting end of last year, he personally helped me through some tough times I’ve gone through so naturally I love him lol
This is beautiful. God made a farmer…… 💚💚💚💚
She deserves the same recognition that Zach getting
You missed the point of Zach helping her.
Thank you sweet child of mine for teaching me patience and having faith! Guns Roses Forever and Always
Well, she's taking the same steps so keep supporting and cross your fingers. Or put yourself in a position to give that to her. Otherwise shut up and quit crying.
The note she hits at 1:50 legitimately brings a tear to my eye.
I like when her Canadian accent slips through. Swoon!
what? how...we sound like complete hosers lol
Caught this beautiful lady open for Wyatt Flores last week in Denver. She is incredible and I hope she blows up! She seems incredibly genuine and she is so so talented. Keep crushing lady!
Westeraf recordings are always better that studio recordings. Change my mind
This is my first time hearing this voice, definitely won't be the last 👌🏼There must be something in that Saskatchewan water
Oh definitely, between her and Colter, country music is true country music now.
Her comments on montana being southern alberta feels like a callback to colters cowpoke video.
Yeah it really does!! 🤣
I get big June Carter vibes from her voice wow she’s amazing
Sweetheart, good Lord you can write a song. I would like to hear more.
I've been watching this channel for years and the talent you guys bring on is something else!
Such an honest old soul, molded by the land.. makes me proud and nothing else beats being a prairie kid.
This girl is like magic, her voice and soft guitar playing has me in a trance. Love her style too!
She’s the real deal
"3 chords and the truth." Nothing more. Nothing less.
LOVED her opening performance for Charley Crockett in Montana. Thanks for coming to Great Falls Noeline!
Wow, I'm not a country music fan but I'm a big fan of this young ladies work/music!
Just now finiding my true self. 30 years of age. Never too late to find yourself. What a beautiful women with such a beautiful voice 😍 Stay true to yourself! ❤
Well done! I didn't realize Canada had the same thing we call red dye diesel, or off road diesel here in the US.
Beautiful. I swear I heard "rural brazilians" when she said "resilience". I was already like "who summoned us?" God bless 🇧🇷🇨🇦🇺🇸♥
Saw her live in support of the mighty Charley Crockett in Montreal. Amazing show & artist!
I'm from Australia, and I relate to this song, your music and sound is amazing, thank you😊
Just wondering in RUclips and seeing this..... Her voice is incredible ❤️ oh my I love this. Hits my soul and heart
I like this version of your song. Especially the commentary and take you have on life, work, and the values you acquired from your Folks, Family, and Friends. How I wish more people have your perspective on life and living ! Keep up the superb Country Music making and all my best wishes to you Noeline and the Musician's you create with. From: Steven in America's Dairyland WI.❤

It really is a love letter to the prairies that I too love so much. Just over here crying cuz I just feel it. Every word, every note, perfection.
This Alberta boy can’t stop playing this song in all of its versions. Nolene is just amazing!!
That’s a flawless audio recording and an epic backdrop for listening to this plaintive and beautiful song.
Thanks amigo. Canada got it all
Damn,... speaking Truth in a world of lies young lady. 🎶👍🏻👍🏻
Simple chords, brilliant lyrics and chilling vocals. This song, on repeat, all day.

appreciate that brother, was wondering what purple gas was. Makes sense now
great talent. loving the shimmer in the high notes
I can attest her voice is amazing live. I got to see one of her first solo performances in USA. She had the crowd fully engaged was amazing to see!
I love your giggle at the end Noeline! 💜
ZB isn't my favorite, but he sure has been good for country music. LOVE THIS.

welcome
I hear a little bit of Iris Dement!
What a beautiful girl with a beautiful voice. Not to mention she's a redhead. So many great things about her! =) Thank you Ms. Noeline.
Thank you!!
Similarly in Ireland we have what's called "green" diesel which is died and only for agriculture use, it used to be a fraction of the price of "straight" diesel but I ran my Discovery 2 on it for about 2 years (listening to the Eagles like a living Desperado lol) praying I wouldn't hit a checkpoint or I'd have to Take It Easy a.k.a walking 🤠
I absolutely love the Gibsons tone.
What a talent! Awesome song
This woman needs a ring and a green card. Let's run the ranch together. 🙌🙌🙌
One more beautiful discovery !
Man that's a good one 👍
Awesome ! Gotta find more of your music. Hope you’ll play some of the cowboy gatherings etc. in the states. Yup WAF!
Single now on Apple Music
beautiful! great to get to know her
love.
finally a version with the correct title. thank you
This made me smile and tear up little bit too😅
Great song and I love her sound!
It floored us from the first time we heard it!
Stateside we call it off-road diesel and it's dyed red. Got to say when I heard this on the new Zach album, I thought some purple gas was the only relief you got and the plate was your rolling tray. 😂
keep your head down, it goes one forever...
Beautiful tone.
So good. Keep drivin on.
Yaaaas. Have come to love both versions despite my initial criticism, but she’s back 🤠
When you look at the camera lense. ❤
What an awesome song
Fuck yeah
Fucking A Joe Bob. She’s finer than a frog hair to boot
