We are traveling across the USA this Christmas! We would love to see you. 🎄Christmas Tour 2024 🎄 Ludington, MI - November 23rd St. Louis, MO - December 4th Dayton, OH - December 7th Charlotte, NC - December 8th Santa Barbara, CA - December 12th Arlington, TX - December 14th petersenband.com/the-petersens-2024-christmas-tour/ Branson, MO - November 5th to January 4th tickets.petersenband.com/
"Stop the Tape!" [as they use to say. . . ] I pause this exceptional concert to congratulate the arranger of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen!" And to give kudos to the young lady with the MOST distinctively beautiful voice for her style of vocal skill on this number. Wow!
God gifts us so many things of beauty: a sunset, a flower, a hummingbird, a rain shower…no less He has gifted us with this group. Enjoy and give thanks.
For first time i found your videos yesterday 10/10/2024 congratulations to all family is the least i can say to you all folks!!Mom Karen you must be proud for your wonderful kids!! Thumbs up 👍👍👍👍👍
The Petersens will be engraved in music history as one of the greatest Bluegrass band ever existed.. I'm sure of that. This concert was so glorious. Thanks for lifting up our spirit! More power to The Petersens.
Darn you RUclips. First I get my notification about 2 hours after this was uploaded. This is The Petersons, how dare you make me so late. Then this thumbing up only once needs to go. This deserves way more than just 1.
OMGOODNESS Katie,what a PHENOMENAL Job on the Cherokee Shuffle, absolutely love it!!! Julianne throwing in the perfect addition with her mandolin, and Emmett, best Dobro player I have ever listened to!Pick that guitar Matt,perfect playing!
So well said! I watch them almost every day and am continually blessed and encouraged by their sweetness and love for one another and for the Lord. So talented and continually getting better, as well!
After seeing this show a few times…. I can say that it is simply fantastic! Everything from start to finish! However, I wanted to point out a particular moment that has impressed me every time I saw and listened to it. And it is when Emmet has just finished singing "I Heard the Bells" (beautiful and poignant song!) and, immediately after the well-deserved applause of the audience, in the perfect silence of the hall, the instruments are silent and Julianne begins to sing, in perfect chord of B minor, "O Come, O Come Emmanuel". Then the harmonies of Katie and Ellen enter and, after that, all the instruments to complete this masterpiece of rare beauty. These are minutes of pure magic, the authentic magic of Christmas. 🎄
@@FrankvdMuijsenberg Thanks Frank. It was always a moment of the show where I would freeze ... watching and listening, forgetting what there was to do. 😉
Our dog, Buddy, loves Julianne's voice! When 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman' comes on, Buddy perks up, stands up, & looks for her in the room!! A high compliment, indeed...
When you watch this concert, it is so wholesome and sounds so good that you can't help but forget about all of the bad in the world for just a little bit. Thank you Petersens for all you do!
@@danblumel I was struggling to remember who's voice Emmet reminded me of - I agree, his voice is very similar to Rickey's for certain. Classic Blue Grass.
From a Kansas-born Kamaaina living in Hawaii for the past 35 years, and raised on all kinds of Western music, including Bluegrass, Matt did a better job on Mele Kalikimaka than I have heard some Hawaiian singers do, and they wrote the song! Truth be told, each member of The Petersens brings 110% to the musical table of excellence. Your vocal harmonies are spot-on for every song I've heard you do. Your layering and overall balance is second to none. Your stage presence and facials are so appropriate. Emmett's palm-tree slide-up in the song ending sounded better than I've heard some Hawaiian bands do. Our musical "experience" is simply awesome whenever you are on stage! I play bass, guitar and trombone but have been inspired by The Petersens to learn violin and mandolin. Katie is an awesome fiddler! Juliann's falsetto is so killer that I'm almost certain it's because of those dimples! Her shyness is the best part of her solos...she's having more fun than we know! (as are ALL of you!) If I have failed to mention any of the members, let me just say that ALL of your vocals are top-notch and unique in so many good ways! I intentionally left out two ladies' names just for variety, but they are such important additions to the band. One of them even has a BEAUTIFUL voice, but then again, all of your voices are super pleasant to listen to. I kinda wish I could hear the upright a little better cuz I know it's top-notch playing. Your instruments are each so well played and perfectly blended. Most importantly, you all have huge hearts full of love. I pray that your family always remains close. God bless each of you richly, and one day I hope to be able to worship our Savior, Jesus Christ, together! Keep looking up, and thank you for all the smiles and joy you have brought through your musical talents that God has given you! I could say ten times as much for each song you play, but there are only so many hours in a day!
Julianne, I do declare, there are just certain songs,that your Angelic voice is the only voice, that is proper for those songs What a beautiful show!!!
My wife and I had the privilege of seeing this show live last year in Branson (our first Petersens show!), and we enjoyed it immensely. We might not be able to make it this year, but it is a blessing to be able to see it again from the comfort of our home. So much joy and beautiful music. Thank you for sharing!
How wonderful of the band to put this Christmas show on you tube. Many of your fans, such as me, will never make it to Branson to see you perform, and to me this just shows how much you appreciate those who support you from all over the world. a very nice gift, from you to all your fans. Thank you so much! Have a very Merry Christmas.
Totally agree. Been a fan for a long time but will never get to see them live unless I win the lottery (UK, 20 years and still hoping!). Love their music xx
OK, the concert is really great -- but I want to call some attention and give some praise to the crew taking care of the details. Audio is impressive for a live recording, and the lighting and video work is really spectacular! (Sounds like Randy Franz is at least part of that team!) Lighting is well done throughout, and the camera got great angles and _really_ crisp, clear shots even with the close-ups. It honestly looks almost 4K, which is especially surprising after going through youtube's compression. *VERY* nicely done! Petersen family, you of course look and sound wonderful! I really need to make the trip to see your concerts firsthand, hopefully including a Christmas concert. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent and skill with the world!
What a smashing family of musicians you are! 😉 I discovered you early last year during the lockdown and have been a big fan ever since. You’re often playing in the background whilst I am fitting out my 57-foot narrowboat shell, here nera Nottingham (Robin Hood City) in the East Midlands, England. Some of the tasks can be mundane, but you certainly help to pass the time and give me that push as I attempt to complete the more arduous jobs, onboard!
I've watched this at least 10 times now and it never gets old! Great talent that needs to be recognized! They play with such joy that it truly shows they all enjoy what they are doing, especially the way they look at each other with such adoration. I don't know anything about playing the dobro but I would venture that Emmet is world class in my book.
@@martahampton1175 Any one of them on any single day has more musical talent in their pinky finger than I have had collectively in my whole life, and that's 70 years! Plus, their love for Jesus makes them even more near and dear to me.
Carolina in the Pines is my absolute favorite by the Petersen’s . What a fantastic show . Thank you for making this available for your many fans unable to see you in person . Shout out to The Petersens !!
The train runs from Shelby, Ky to Kingsport, Tn making 14 stops on its 110 mile route., including 3 in Kentucky, 10 in Virginia and 1 in Tennessee. The train distributes more than 15 tons of gifts, 900 plush toys, 5,600 backpacks, 100 rolls of wrapping paper and 2000 other types of toys.
Is there no end to this group’s talent? They hit the Andrew’s Sisters performance with Bing Crosby on Mele Kalikimaka. Out of the park! This show is just outstanding. I hesitate to say my favorite because I will be saying that about another.
What a moving performance. I had tears most of the time. Remember remembering my sisters bluegrass band back in the 70’s. They played In Nashville many times. (The Bluegrass Express Band) The Hastings Family. God has blessed your family in many ways. “Thanks” to a loving Father and Mother. They started it all. Can see Jesus in your “LIVES” GOD BLESS……. ❤
Even though I have already watched these two concerts (the spring and Christmas concerts) On Crowdcast when you all originally did them. I have gone back and watched them a couple of times since you have put them on RUclips. I have watched your concert from 2014 from Oklahoma a few times as well. I have enjoyed them and loved them each time. I'm looking forward to the day I get to see a live performance. One day hopefully sooner than later. 😉. God Bless you all. And my prayers for you all. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏. Elden. PS And seeing that you got to open for Hank Jr. Awesome 😎👍
I am happy to find you on RUclips. You are a perfect combination of voices and everybody can see that music is your live. Greetings and God bless you from me, a German guy live in Thailand and listen your songs.
I love Julianne's singing. All those little breaks in her voice really make me smile. As she continues to mature and improve she is going to be the best vocalist in the band, and that is saying something. Also love a lot of their arrangements, I especailly liked that bluesy arrangemet of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. This band is a must see for me if I ever make it to Branson.
I've praised Katie on many Petersen threads elsewhere. Both for her musicianship and for the infectious joy she exudes' And so, as an Irish man , I was thrilled by her lovely words about my country. And we in Ireland love you, Katie, and all the members of your sensational family.
I found your family music on you tube during our Covid lockdown. You guys have blessed me. We love blue grass and made a trip to Branson to see you last summer….and have tickets for our whole family of 10 to see the Christmas show in Grapevine on the 19th. Thanks for putting last year’s Christmas show on you tube, a great preview! Thank you for loving Jesus and sharing your talents with the world…Lynda in Farmersville, TX
❤Jetzt kenne ich euch schon so viele Jahre, trotzdem entdecke ich immer wieder neues über euch und eure Musik. 😊 Danke das es euch gibt. Danke Mama Petersens das sie so eine tolle Familie haben. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
A beautiful show! I hope that when the pandemic is over, I will be able to fly to the United States and see your show live. Greetings from Poland and Merry Christmas to all!
Just when you think they can't get any better....This !... Greeting and Merry Xmas from the UK....Love you guys and well, just keep at it. America needs you. XXX
I remember being there live, and the energy that fills the room is one that no man can create on his own. God is with you, and his hand is in your lives and your work. Not only is your music appealing, but your hearts are beautiful and sing for the Lord, and it shows! God bless you!
This is the BEST harmonizing that I’ve ever heard! These amazing kids/band are right up there with the best of the best! They’re not elbow to elbow, with, for example, the Nitty Gritty Band, not because they don’t have the talent or ability to be up there with the rich and famous, but because they’ve chosen a different path in life and music, a path of humbleness, love of what’s important in life, true human and spiritual values, and for the glorifying of God. I think that’s why I’m so incredibly drawn to them; for their talent, their love for family, their wittiness, intelligence, educational achievements, for the ability to get along so well with each other, which I know by experience it’s extremely difficult being true friends with your siblings! Moments brought tears of joy and sadness to my eyes. Thank you immensely for being out there “curing” people’s souls and lives!
I am a "Petersen" from Ontario, Canada ! Our roots are from Copenhagen, Denmark. We are not musically inclined like this family. We have all been professionals in the medical & educational fields. We all have our skills in life, this family is fabulous at entertaining people , they are delightful. My sister played the accordion in a band every weekend while attending teacher's college, once she began her profession and then married and raised a family, she rarely played again.
I will be eternally grateful for the day I came across your music by a complete accident. Have said this before, and will say (probably many more times) again - you guys are absolutely amazing! Can't wait to make those translations for you :)
@@Liz.Newton Oh hi Liz! Are you "the" Liz Newton Ellen cc'd to our last mail? (For clarity, I use two different accounts, so that one from original comment is also me :) ) If so, just wanted to make sure you've gotten that last e-mail and everything was fine with it :) All the best!
I've never been too big on Blue Grass Music... BUT THEN I DISCOVERED THE PETERSENS ! O M G what a family, such great musicians, such great singers !!! I am amazed at how good each of you play your instruments ( INCLUDING MOMMA ) ! I CONFESS THAT kATIE WAS MY FIRST ATTRACTION, but that's because she is so beautiful, and is always smiling ! Your band deserves all the happiness and success because you make ALL YOUR FANS SO HAPPY ! Thank You for sharing all your music on You Tube for us ! ! ! 🥰🥰🥰
Words cannot express this group brings. It brightens up my day. I would love to hear them do some of the of Jim Reeves songs I think they would knock them out of the park.
Thank you LIZ NEWTON for all the information and the time stamps. That is a very big deal and we appreciate what you do for us. Merry Christmas to The Caption Queen!
Great! I love all of the vocals. Amazing. Rejoice, Rejoice! Emmet your dobro is the earthly equivalent of a heavenly angel's harp. Thank you all, God Bless and Merry Christmas.
I am born and raised in the other side of the world with no chance of ever seeing or meeting you guys so I'll just watch your videos and look forward to meet you all in the other side of heaven!
GET IT MOMMA, I to was born in WV in a small sawmill town called Thayer, in Fayette county. it's good to hear such lovely voices . Male & female. i one of our greatst fans. God bless the Pettersons.
We are traveling across the USA this Christmas! We would love to see you.

Every time... literally every time Julianne kicks in with "O come o come Emmanuel" I get the chills.
I've came back to her singing it a half dozen times just watching this show.
Nobody better , The best Family band out there
I Love how Ellen always keeps a huge smile on face!!! 😇
A smile that can light up a city block!
The Petersens will be engraved in music history as one of the greatest Bluegrass band ever existed..
I'm sure of that.
This concert was so glorious.
Thanks for lifting up our spirit!
More power to The Petersens.
They belong among the greats like the Carter family, the Jacksons, the Bachs, etc.
47:00 O come, O come, Emmanuel - Still one of my favorites!!
Real music
Music gets a deeper sense
listening to The Petersens
And thanks to Mama Petersen, you have the right to be proud, a big hug from Italy
At home recovering from open heart surgery. What a blessing y’all are. Merry Christmas
I hope you are healing well. Prayers 🙏
Ellen voice is outstanding , graceful

@@FrankvdMuijsenberg Thanks Frank. It was always a moment of the show where I would freeze ... watching and listening, forgetting what there was to do. 😉
YES! I agree Roberto. I bet all those folks at the show felt that as well. They are wonderful
I went and found that, listening three times to it. Thank you. Easily the greatest version I’d ever heard.
All what you've sayed here Roberto I seconde that All the way!!
Our dog, Buddy, loves Julianne's voice! When 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman' comes on, Buddy perks up, stands up, & looks for her in the room!! A high compliment, indeed...
I really enjoy this band. They are the most entertaining, professional and talented group of bluegrass musicians out there today :)
Love Julianne's singing style and her rendition of Southern Nights and Mom is to be commended for raising a beautiful family!
I absolutely love their God Rest Ye Merry Gents! Vocals incredible. Fiddle rippin'! Love the dobro!!!
was here last year, and came back again for some christmas enjoyment
When you watch this concert, it is so wholesome and sounds so good that you can't help but forget about all of the bad in the world for just a little bit. Thank you Petersens for all you do!
A wonderful show from a wonderful family (+The Franz Reinforcement).
I figure he's probably extended family at this point. Brother form another mother, so to speak.
That Franz boy can play, holy smokes Emmett is good.
@@BenjiMordino I think Emmett's voice sounds like Ricky Skaggs or maybe I'm thinking of Vince Gill. Thoughts ?
@@danblumel I was struggling to remember who's voice Emmet reminded me of - I agree, his voice is very similar to Rickey's for certain. Classic Blue Grass.
You can tell a musician is really good when they make it look easy, and this group is really good.

I never liked Christmas music till I found this group last year and heard them do Christmas songs.
What can I say that hasn’t been said before other than, thank you for all the good times you have given us. Merry Christmas !!!
I seconde that!
@@rogerpr364 I third that :)
Great and amazing!!!!
I appreciate Emmet giving us the backstories on his songs. It adds meaning to the beautiful songs. Love ‘em all.

Emmett: Thank you for the added verses.. they offer context.of history that are painful but now, part of our history... Merry Christmas day, yes..
I still love the song "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentleman"

Mama's bass really cutting though on this recording and its real nice.
Merry Christmas Petersen's & fans.
Please let Mama play the trumpet! She will be heard at last, and she really masters it!
Is there no end to this group’s talent? They hit the Andrew’s Sisters performance with Bing Crosby on Mele Kalikimaka. Out of the park! This show is just outstanding. I hesitate to say my favorite because I will be saying that about another.
They ought to be going places!
I love the way your family praises the King of King's. You all sound awesome God Bless you all.
I am seeing this two years almost,later. Thanks Emmet for the history of the song!
I'm crying so hard listening to "I'll Be Home for Christmas" right now
What a moving performance. I had tears most of the time. Remember remembering my sisters bluegrass band back in the 70’s. They played In Nashville many times. (The Bluegrass Express Band) The Hastings Family. God has blessed your family in many ways. “Thanks” to a loving Father and Mother. They started it all. Can see Jesus in your “LIVES” GOD BLESS……. ❤
Amen!
it's great to see a family like yours that's not ashamed to praise God and his son Jesus.. you guys are such an inspiration . thank you guys..
The best music, the best band, the best family of online.
Even though I have already watched these two concerts (the spring and Christmas concerts)
On Crowdcast when you all originally did them.

Why do I get goosebumps when listening to Julianne's voice? what on earth.. Nice performance! Really nice and festive show!
She’s a good contrast to Ellen and Katie
Petersens embodies what is needed for world peace.
Thanks for the time stamps.... great viewers responses every time I play it ... and closer to Christmas 🎄 ☺ 🔔 🛎 🎊
The Christmas Truce was a moving thing to learn about.
Beautiful people playing and singing beautiful music with beautiful voices. Perfect, thank you. :-)

I really like the details you give about the songs (like you did for "Santa Train" or "I heard the bells"). Really interesting!
Wasn't in the Christmas spirit until this popped up!! Merry Christmas y'all ❣️ ⛄ 🎄 ✨ 🦌 ❄️ 😇
the look on your face, Katie, when playing the bells was pure joy. May you get many opportunities in life to play them :-)
I am going to the Christmas show this year, 2033, in Santa Barbara. Watching bc I wanted to get some idea of what the Christmas show is like
everyone s singing and playing is so special
All set for Christmas day cheer now ! Thanks Y'all ! 😊🎈🎈
Christmas is a difficult time for me for many reasons. You guys are a bright light in the darkest of days. Thank you!
Why isn't there more than 1 like button? Outstanding group!
I've praised Katie on many Petersen threads elsewhere. Both for her musicianship and for the infectious joy she exudes' And so, as an Irish man , I was thrilled by her lovely words about my country. And we in Ireland love you, Katie, and all the members of your sensational family.

It was so awesome to be able to see you guys all the way from Patagonia, southern Chile. We were the missionaries that met you last week. God bless!
Just beautiful. Love and Happy Holidays from Ireland🤍
I love the way Katie plays the fiddle!!! It is truly amazing.
A beautiful show! I hope that when the pandemic is over, I will be able to fly to the United States and see your show live. Greetings from Poland and Merry Christmas to all!
I just love to hear Julianne sing , her voice is a one off ,no one else sounds like her . it is mesmerizing.
Just when you think they can't get any better....This !...
Greeting and Merry Xmas from the UK....Love you guys and well, just keep at it. America needs you. XXX

I think that’s why I’m so incredibly drawn to them; for their talent, their love for family, their wittiness, intelligence, educational achievements, for the ability to get along so well with each other, which I know by experience it’s extremely difficult being true friends with your siblings! Moments brought tears of joy and sadness to my eyes. Thank you immensely for being out there “curing” people’s souls and lives!
I am a "Petersen" from Ontario, Canada ! Our roots are from Copenhagen, Denmark. We are not musically inclined like this family. We have all been professionals in the medical & educational fields. We all have our skills in life, this family is fabulous at entertaining people , they are delightful. My sister played the accordion in a band every weekend while attending teacher's college, once she began her profession and then married and raised a family, she rarely played again.
I will be eternally grateful for the day I came across your music by a complete accident. Have said this before, and will say (probably many more times) again - you guys are absolutely amazing! Can't wait to make those translations for you :)
Can't wait to have you aboard!
@@Liz.Newton Oh hi Liz! Are you "the" Liz Newton Ellen cc'd to our last mail? (For clarity, I use two different accounts, so that one from original comment is also me :) ) If so, just wanted to make sure you've gotten that last e-mail and everything was fine with it :) All the best!
