I have also noticed this kind of behavior. They cannot control themselves, and clearly for this family/group they do it for the love of music and not the penny. May they find themselves rich in every way possible that makes and keeps them happy.
I can not understand the 2 thumbs down. what is not to like? it is the equivalent of complaining about sunshine and mild temperatures. Mary is one of the most gifted writers and musicians in the world. so thankful that there is RUclips and that I found her music.
Philipo Pruesse : There's going to be a percentage of negative nellies in every video on You Tube, I guess you can't please them all. For me I enjoy folk music, the only thing I can't stand is rap, it's like fingernails on a chalkboard to me.😀😃😄
Hello Mean Mary It's Christmas time again(2021) and The Swallow and the Hawk is a regular Christmas tune around hear since 2014 or so. One of the grandkids says it sound like snow fall. And she says that she bets you aren't so mean. A Merry Christmas to you and yours.
When I listen to you guys, you bring total peace and joy to my spirit I dance all night long and I thank you for the song that makes me dance. I appreciate you guys. Thank you so much beautiful Father’s Day with your music.
@@chrisgray3195 Hmm! You know, One of the patients used to actually strum the guitar to keep their fingers exercised! Wonder if it could work on your end:-) After all, sounds like exercise you'd enjoy:-)
Two instruments tug at my heart and soul everytime I hear them. One is the banjo, the other is the bagpipe. I have no explanation for why, but they have ever since I was a child. So, thank you Mean Mary for making such beautiful music with your banjo.
We are all listening in amazement. Only a child is looking at the sky to realize that even the Gods with astonished faces are looking down from the clouds. (Bruno from Rome)
What a beautiful way to use that banjo! And Frank's arpeggios on the back sounded more full than if you had had the extra players. (I'll bet your frettin fingers hurt like hell playing those runs there Frank!🎶🎶🎶 Y'all have a great day! It's a balmy 72° on California's North Coast and the ocean is flat and fishable. Be well!
What a sound..what a style... think I m watching that for the 101st time. I love it. And listening with closed eyes I see the sparrow and the hawk fighting...
Wow! You guys wrote this! This is so beautiful and how you both interweave with each other! I like too the great chromatics. I've enjoyed your videos and such grand talent! Thanks for sharing!
Just discovered this ultra talented multi-instrumentalist singer and performer tonight... instant fan... and she's a beautiful woman as well...what's not to love about her ? 😍😍😍
As a beginner at the banjo..and a plumker on my old 12 string Fender.......I find this twosome playing wonderful music so sweet and melodic......beautiful ..
i have just today listened to mean mary, sad huh ? i think this song is one of the very best ive ever heard. im 64, a music lover all my life, this blew me away. thank you mary, just thank you. osco williams jr.
Got to say I stumbled across your music by accident yesterday, I'm usually a hard rock/heavy metal/blues lover, but I have always been in awe of bluegrass musicians and the magic they're capable of with their instruments, it's been a long time since I enjoyed anything country, it's too "poppy" for me, I liked the old stuff. I've finally found something new that I like, and Mean Mary does it all without sounding like everyone else, fantastic. 😃
Edward Warner I echo your sentiments...I am a metalhead/rocker/blues lover to a great degree...but as a son of the South, I have a lifelong affinity for some good Bluegrass ... and this woman kills it... instant fan.
Thanks for being born and discovering and sharing your great talent so we all can enjoy some beautiful commune while rotating on this highly divisive planet. God has surely blessed us with you you guys!🥰
So much talent in this woman and her brother James. Mary's virtuoso is well known, but Frank is equally talented on the very difficult to play 12 string. Thanks for the music!
Wendy -- Thank you for the information. I wish more people could hear Mean Mary's music. She and her music deserve to be popular and well known by the entire world :)
Jon, post Mary's videos on your timeline on Facebook. that's what I plan on doing. a group you should also check out is The Dunwells. a friend of mine in the UK knows these young men personally. he's a retired musician. he arranged for me to get free tickets to a small venue concert of theirs. in fact, he talked them into stopping in my state just so I could go to one of their concerts while they were on their 1st American tour! I went with my ex-sister-in-law to the concert, we got to hang out with the band for a good 90 minutes before the concert and talked again to them after. had a blast.
In my seventies but never to late to find new music and artistes, thank you Mean Mary for some fantastic music, heart warming stuff.
I love watching people who love music play music. There is an honesty about them that mere entertainers will never capture!
She and Frank really do love what they're doing.
And considering the instruments of choice, they're definitely innovative in their compositions.
I have also noticed this kind of behavior. They cannot control themselves, and clearly for this family/group they do it for the love of music and not the penny. May they find themselves rich in every way possible that makes and keeps them happy.
Mary and Frank. Lovely. And so nice to see a brother and sister enjoying each other's company in such a wondrous way.
Mean Mary is an incredible musician. Love her music and her style.

Brian trucking Landers agreed
Green Eyed Monsters is all.
Always a joy in an otherwise humdrum life- Mary is so very talented in so many ways
Two thumbs down from two full blown idjits
How have I survived this long without Mean Marry!!
Hello Mean Mary
It's Christmas time again(2021) and The Swallow and the Hawk is a regular Christmas tune around hear since 2014 or so.
One of the grandkids says it sound like snow fall.
And she says that she bets you aren't so mean.
A Merry Christmas to you and yours.
I Love Your Music and Love You Mary
When I listen to you guys, you bring total peace and joy to my spirit I dance all night long and I thank you for the song that makes me dance. I appreciate you guys. Thank you so much beautiful Father’s Day with your music.
Absolutely love this, I can no longer play my banjo but instead, watch great talents like Mary and James. Thank you!!!
Why aren't you able to play anymore?

@@chrisgray3195 Hmm! You know, One of the patients used to actually strum the guitar to keep their fingers exercised! Wonder if it could work on your end:-) After all, sounds like exercise you'd enjoy:-)
I like this performance so much. Lovely 12 string sound and genius banjo playing by Mary. (And I love the hat).
So awesome! Don't know what I'd do if I couldn't get my daily dose of "Mean" Mary James!
Mary's music brings light to you're soul, bless her.
I love listening to them💜. Mesmerising
I am so glad my friend turned me on to Mean Mary's music! I love the variety of style!
Music is fabulous. She's gorgeous!
Mary is the most gifted songwriter in the last 100 years. Simple but elegant
You can See by their movements they are not only playing music, they are in the music.
Like your mom
Just found these two and I am sure glad.
A timeless masterpiece. Thank you!
Two instruments tug at my heart and soul everytime I hear them. One is the banjo, the other is the bagpipe. I have no explanation for why, but they have ever since I was a child. So, thank you Mean Mary for making such beautiful music with your banjo.

Classy, tasteful American art, at its best
Hi Mary, this has a very Tudor feel and would be perfectly in place in the middle of Hampton Court. I love it.
Your music is so moving . Emotion overtakes you sometimes listening to your words and music. Your soul sometime shows. It is beautiful. Thankyou
Seriously, your banjo playing is so incredibly beautiful
What a beautiful way to use that banjo!
And Frank's arpeggios on the back sounded more full than if you had had the extra players.
(I'll bet your frettin fingers hurt like hell playing those runs there Frank!🎶🎶🎶
Y'all have a great day!
It's a balmy 72° on California's North Coast and the ocean is flat and fishable. Be well!
Nothing like a soothing, mellow original by Mary & Frank to put a smile on your face...
What a beautiful blend of different instruments; another keeper!!
Yeah, right, guitar and banjo together! Who would have thought that could work so well!!!
What a sound..what a style... think I m watching that for the 101st time. I love it. And listening with closed eyes I see the sparrow and the hawk fighting...

You have indeed found an excellent musician! Lots more on RUclips. And, look up her bio online.
No matter instrument she touches it sings to us, because she touches it's soul.
There really are no words. Brilliant picking and phenomenal chord progressions! Breathtaking!!!!
WOW, absolutely loved this.
This is pure class......music that caresses the soul ! Thanks Mary....Thanks Frank
Love you being you mean Mary!😊

This music is so elegant, an unusual way to describe music but I cannot think of a better word.
Excellent! Your music has a restrained power that makes a long day a little shorter. Thank you.
