Alison Krauss doesn't need a boost from anyone. The song has been around for over 100 years abd coverd by nearly everyone that is someone and then a few more. Hell, even Bob Dylan did it
Well you may not have heard their music but Allison Krauss has won 27 Grammies, 13 Country Music Awards, 14 IMBA awards and 106 Nominations for all of them. She has more than ANYONE even Quincy Jones. So a few of us knew about their music.
While I agree with you, I find it strange that you try to disassociate Alison and the band. Here's some history on _Union Station_ "Union Station is an American bluegrass and country band associated with singer Alison Krauss. The act established in 1987 as a backup band for Krauss is usually referred to as Alison Krauss and Union Station and was initially composed of Krauss, Jeff White, Mike Harman and John Pennell. " Krauss and the 'band' are one and the same.
Alison playing in Urbana, IL bar, she was so incredible knew we couldn't keep her with us. She needed to find the next level. Union Station was answer to our prayers for her. She is even better than we could imagine!
Having met these players a couple of times, I can tell you that they are as genuine as can be. Miss Alison is about the sweetest person I have ever met. When she sings it's as if the words just come out so effortlessly, like she is just talking to someone normally. That's the true mark of a professional. Can't wait to see them again.
Jerry Douglas, on the dobro is not only the best dobro player in the world, he's one of the greatest musicians of all time! I can't get enough of Union Station. "I'm a Dapper Dan man"
You don't really have to just hold the lyrics up for your nose and then turn around backwards in your bathroom mirror baby it make sense have fun and be cool
What a great group of musicians that is. The groove is so good, and without a drummer. Impressive playing and singing. Krauss's solo is worth the price of admission by itself. Good to her just playing fiddle once in while.
true bluegrass never has a drummer! it destroys the whole genre of the music. if you use drums in bluegrass, weather you like it or not, you just became country!
Their rhythm is so super TIGHT. And yes, they shouldn't have a drummer, but what's so impressive is how steady and locked together they are without one. I've seen them a few times live, and seen plenty of really good rock bands in my life. AKUS is the best-playing live band I have ever seen, regardless of genre.
Bluegrass usually has the bass keeping time along with another instrument mandolin/Dobro/violin. The bass plucks a note and the other instrument follows with a 'chop'. You get a 'boom-chick-boom-chick' rhythm that is similar to a bass drum with snare drum or hi-hat in music that has a drum set
Seeing these Comments gives me some Comfort knowing that i am not alone in this World... I have always stood out about the Music i loved... The Band being my Favorite of all... God Bless u all...
@0:25 Alison doesn't smile much when she performs, but she's grinning ear-to-ear at Dan's funny start to this song, perhaps some kind of inside joke. What joy these people experience performing together. Glad we get to join them!
i got to meet Jerry Douglas when my mother was dating his brother Blaine. Both of them were such good dudes, now nearly 15 years later i can say they influenced my perceptions and appreciation for music and life itself. They'll probably never read this, but I just wanted to say thanks
I love this,when I was a kid living down near Lake Cumberland, everyone carried their instruments in their car! All my Family Played guitars or Banjo's and fiddles! People would stop by, always had music in my life!
Uh sir, I'm Jordan Rivers, and these here are the Soggy Bottom Boys outta Cottonouille, Mississippi. Songs of salvation to salve the soul. Uh, we hear that you pay good money to sing into a can.
I’ve been to a lot of concerts in my life and seen some incredible musicians and seeing Allison with this group of super talented musicians was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen…👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Brandi... boys.... strings. This was phenomenal 👏 I feel like I had an out of body experience. I just loved this❤❤ Absolutely beautiful and amazing 👏 😍 ❤
I love watching great musicians play....and It's soooo much better when they are just hummin' along like this.....firing on all cylinders.....lightin' it up! Fantastic rendition! Thanks!
As I saw the movie the first time I instantly fell in love. And a big role played the music, especially this song. And has anybody but me realised that: All Lefthanders here! Amazing!
"Keeping Tempo" - well said Simon ... and the way they seamlessly take over the back beat from each other when soloing! No timing glitch, or velocity change - WoW! ... absolutely WOW!! Monstrous musicianship 🙏
I call this storytelling, and reminiscent of generations behind us. Please we can’t lose sight of how important this is for future generations. We need to take several steps back to more forward.take care.
I love that they can be awesome either lefty or righty! Right? :) (sorry, Left? :) ) ok, maybe they are just super awesome and totally apolitical, whatever. :) Happy 2020 everyone. Much Love A.K.& U.S.!
All is flipped for the sake of copywrites and such. Nonetheless, this Yankee born-Carolina livin' girl LOVES this song. Bluegrass is amazing, and so is Alison.
Saw these guys around the time of the movie in the Florida Theater and it was like getting three shows for the price of one, there was so much talent on that stage ...
Lots of them are flipped because of uploading or capture issues. Sometimes I have to edit my vids to make sure they're pointed in the right direction. lol
Who else is here listening to this 20 years after O Brother, Where Art Thou?
I am
Me. I'm the go****ned mater familias!
Me. It's me.
Aye. Me too
Me
Never saw so many talented left handed people in one group so talented.
Of course, video is reversed, as they often are on RUclips. I guess it's to prevent the algorithm from catching it. I take your comment as sarcastic.
Reversing Alison didn't make her any less pretty.
@@jeffandsherriefranzwa8970 She is an angel on earth. With a fiddle...
Well, everybody could be a left-handed player when they reverse the video
😅😂😅
These songs from the film are my husband' s favourite.
He loves the movie. Oh Brother where art thou .
Loved that quirky movie and love the music!
BORN and raised Proud Brown TEXICAN, This is #1 in my Book!
As an African American, I fell in love with Bluegrass music after seeing “Oh Brother, Where Art Thou”.
It’s the music of the Angels.
Welcome and love you brother. Check out billy strings.
Me too! The movie got me into bluegrass
Sorry, mate, most of it's called "Old Time". :((
I am as well Anthony.
That’s cool. It’s great music!
How many people noticed the vid was flipped and everyone was playing left handed?
I just thought it was a coincidence that they were all left-handed?? Dumb me!
yeah....very bizarre looking..I've seen it happen in photographs but not video like this. stange, to say the least.
@@urbanbraun6218 top near middle , the letters are backwards too :p
@@Steacy783NUTS Yeah I can see now. Didn't notice the letters then, can see it now. SUKA!!
Yes I also noticed that
we may not agree but this will be the best blue grass song for at least a generation!!!
O Brother Where Art Thou was a huge boon for these guys. People that would otherwise never hear their music loved this song.
Alison Krauss doesn't need a boost from anyone. The song has been around for over 100 years abd coverd by nearly everyone that is someone and then a few more. Hell, even Bob Dylan did it
@@franktalleyI love the way she’s smiling and loving Dan having his moment. It says a lot about her grace and character

No autotune, no bullshit, just talent. Damn!
Boy, you got that right!!
2024 anyone?
Here!
Here, in Bulgaria
Yup!
2024 here in Kansas
Yup! Oct 5 2024 Northern California!
VOTE DJT!!! Election HAVE Consequences!! Save the world!!

With smile and tears
Oh my, Country Music performers are so dang talented.!!! Love them Country Folks, how sweet it is‼️😘
Alison is a great vocalist / musician...her partnership with the best of the best Bluegrass Union Station is beyond outstanding.
and apparently ambidextrous
Yup. Everyone's left-handed now.
While I agree with you, I find it strange that you try to disassociate Alison and the band.
Here's some history on _Union Station_
"Union Station is an American bluegrass and country band associated with singer Alison Krauss. The act established in 1987 as a backup band for Krauss is usually referred to as Alison Krauss and Union Station and was initially composed of Krauss, Jeff White, Mike Harman and John Pennell. "
Krauss and the 'band' are one and the same.
@@mikewilson8468 I’m left handed you can’t make your self different handed lmao I wish I was right
Ms Allison is one talented lady… melts this cowboy’s heart
This music represents the best of rural American music
My Dad's favorite song. He passed almost four years ago and when I listen to this it brings back great memories and that I miss him so much.
Now this IS music...nothing but wood, steel strings and god-given talent.....just plucks at the heart-strings and resonates in my soul...Thank you!!
When country music was still country music!
One can not witness these artists play this song and not get goosebumps IMMEDIATELY
yes ............
Being a native Missourian I grew up listening to and loving this music !
Such a talented band they can even play their instruments opposite way around
I was wondering how they could all be left handed
What a legendary combination of talent.
@@johnboy60 Probably play video in reverse.
😀
😉
Im a georgia boy and I will say,this one always gives me chills...sooo dang good..they dont make music like this no more
Sure they do! Check out Daily and Vincent. And Rhonda Vincent! All terrific bluegrass groups.
The chemistry between these guys at the top of their game is timeless. I can never get enough of it.
I Am a man Who found Jesus. He helps me now.
Never tire of hear this song.
I too am Man of Constant Sorrow- it's called clinical depression. Most people not feeling it are not paying attention to present reality.
Alison playing in Urbana, IL bar, she was so incredible knew we couldn't keep her with us. She needed to find the next level. Union Station was answer to our prayers for her. She is even better than we could imagine!
How come nobody talks about the great vocal by Dan 🎉Timinski - he made this song a huge hit. Give credit where credit is due,
Having met these players a couple of times, I can tell you that they are as genuine as can be. Miss Alison is about the sweetest person I have ever met. When she sings it's as if the words just come out so effortlessly, like she is just talking to someone normally. That's the true mark of a professional. Can't wait to see them again.
She has the voice of an angel
Jerry Douglas, on the dobro is not only the best dobro player in the world, he's one of the greatest musicians of all time! I can't get enough of Union Station.
"I'm a Dapper Dan man"
Check him out on transatlantic sessions.
Hey Steely Dan, I used to date Walter's sister, Wendy...a long, long time ago...
Shit man! Jerry’s even better playing left handed 🤣🤣👏🏻
@Airstrip Kid for this european. what is a dobro?
@Airstrip Kid you just taught me something and no doubt many more you are extremely knowledgeable very humble and a true gentleman !
This was filmed on Opposite Day. Sounds fantastic left handed🤣
Interesting observation
I'll just listen backwards
You don't really have to just hold the lyrics up for your nose and then turn around backwards in your bathroom mirror baby it make sense have fun and be cool
Dude I just realized... The other video is great and he's playing right now he's doin left... Either this dude is skilled as fuck or it's miming
😂😂😂
"O Brother, Where Art Thou?" is a great film with great acting and music!
Does it get any better than this?! Alison’s violin gives me the chills😮🥰
Fantastic band. Love hearing Jerry Douglas, the best dobro player on the planet, and I've been in love with Allison for years!
LOVE Alison and Union Station! I'm an incurable metal head but I never stray far from my roots!
I’m still listening and loving it!!
I have been seriously addicted to not only this song, but many of the songs from the movie O' Brother where art Thou!!!!
It’s no wonder Alison has 27 Grammys. More than anyone, most with Union Station
Country Music Grammy Awards 👍
@@edro3838no.
This one of those videos that you watch and wishes it never ends.
If you can play bluegrass you can play anything. Best pickers in the world.
@Alison Krauss I would love to have it.
Pete seeger was 1 the best.. Check him out with sonny Terry and brownie mcgee.
Such a beautiful example of Americana music. Can't say enough good things about Dan and this line up.
What a great group of musicians that is. The groove is so good, and without a drummer. Impressive playing and singing. Krauss's solo is worth the price of admission by itself. Good to her just playing fiddle once in while.
Don’t need a drummer with Bluegrass...just the way it should be...
I, too, noticed they were playing this bad ass jam with no drummer. Awesome band!
true bluegrass never has a drummer! it destroys the whole genre of the music. if you use drums in bluegrass, weather you like it or not, you just became country!

What a wonderful performance by Alison and her band. I'd love to see them live, but unfortunately living in the UK there's absolutely no chance.😀❤
This is 100 percent. Can’t get better than this. I love this music
I can never get sick of this. God Bless!
Allison Krause And The Union Station is one of my all time fav
Dan Tyminski what a player n voice.
In my.humble opinion this is the gold standard for all blue grass arrangements and songs in the history of blue grass music.
Makes my heart happy to hear this band. I listen to them everyday.
Seeing these
Comments gives me some Comfort knowing that i am not alone in this World...
I have always stood out about the Music i loved...
The Band being my Favorite of all...
God Bless u all...
Pure talent....and it’s obvious they are having fun together
Some of the smoothest bluegrass harmonies you will ever hear.
@0:25 Alison doesn't smile much when she performs, but she's grinning ear-to-ear at Dan's funny start to this song, perhaps some kind of inside joke. What joy these people experience performing together. Glad we get to join them!
i got to meet Jerry Douglas when my mother was dating his brother Blaine. Both of them were such good dudes, now nearly 15 years later i can say they influenced my perceptions and appreciation for music and life itself. They'll probably never read this, but I just wanted to say thanks
Truly an amazing band! (And apparently they can play their instruments left-handed, too ;-))
My family loves this song. Thank you!
Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fantástica sincronia, queridos! Saudações do Brasil!
They sang in yonder can then skeedaddled...

AWESOME - no other way to put it. I love this version
Brandi... boys.... strings. This was phenomenal 👏 I feel like I had an out of body experience. I just loved this❤❤ Absolutely beautiful and amazing 👏 😍 ❤
Masterpiece! Love his voice! Great band!
Sang this when I went to a Texas wedding with my cousins karaoke - one of the great moments of my life.
Love the harmony, they blend so well! Love it!
Jamaican here loving this American phenomenon, pure talent no gimmicks.
The way she rocks that fiddle!
They are all good. She ..... the best !!

Allison Krauss! Most pretty woman. With the voice of an angel 👼!! Never heard a voice like hers!!
Excellent voices and playing. Thanks. This is beautiful and brilliant
a band of the best musicians in bluegrass music! no better group to do this song!
None better than Krauss and union station. Superb.
Amazing work Thank you for your service 🙏 😊❤😊
listening 10/2024
Me too
Can’t keep my feet still. R.I.P. Ralph Stanley.
As I saw the movie the first time I instantly fell in love. And a big role played the music, especially this song.
And has anybody but me realised that: All Lefthanders here! Amazing!
So much talent in the room. Love this song.
The music and singing is top notch as you would wxpect from such talented individuals. Threw me for a few seconds to see them all playing left handed.
Keeping tempo and harmony and making it look and sound so basic is a feat not often witnessed. I feel slightly blessed
"Keeping Tempo" - well said Simon ... and the way they seamlessly take over the back beat from each other when soloing! No timing glitch, or velocity change - WoW! ... absolutely WOW!! Monstrous musicianship 🙏
allison amazes me with her chuffing...short sounds from her bow either going into or out of a phase......loved it....
Just loving the perfection.
Grew up on Zeppelin, Beatles, Beach Boys, Hendrix, Cream, Moody Blues, CCR, Guess Who, Stones, Etc, but this is more than a classic!
Hot damn it's the soggy bottom boys!
ooooohweeeee that be some a migthy fine a pickin and a singin!!!
Will Notcomply i am about to wet my pants! Lol too exciting! Hahahahahahahaha
But they's integrated.......
Everybody's goin' apey
hay! they shaved them beards rite O-F-T
I cry every time I hear Alison sing ! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ she doesn’t sing in man of constant sorrow’s
A band of giants. Just fantastic music.
Absolutely beautiful place to be!!! Heaven in my state of KENTUCKY!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hot dam, That's bonified.
Watched this a dozen times and will again,
I am a metalhead serial killer, but DAMN I totally dig this song!
Come on, if ya like this, never go back! Good Luck!
Metalhead as well and the guys and girls that play bluegrass are the shredders of their genre.
Waiting for the Metallica version. Hell, they did Whiskey In The Jar, why not this?
The guitar and banjo picking are superb!
A classic song sung beautifully!
I call this storytelling, and reminiscent of generations behind us. Please we can’t lose sight of how important this is for future generations. We need to take several steps back to more forward.take care.
Always puts a smile on my face and a bop to my step.
Great song. Allison and You as well. I'm sure your talent will eventually be recognized by "the man of constant sorrow." oh ohhwww ohw whoah
I love that they can be awesome either lefty or righty! Right? :) (sorry, Left? :) ) ok, maybe they are just super awesome and totally apolitical, whatever. :) Happy 2020 everyone. Much Love A.K.& U.S.!
Wiiuh bagus skali lagu country...saya suka lagu country America..bravo america..luv dari indonesia.
All is flipped for the sake of copywrites and such. Nonetheless, this Yankee born-Carolina livin' girl LOVES this song. Bluegrass is amazing, and so is Alison.

Thanks for the explanation. I’ve seen videos where the playback is tilted periodically. Makes sense now.
The amount of musical talent on that stage was immense.
Saw these guys around the time of the movie in the Florida Theater and it was like getting three shows for the price of one, there was so much talent on that stage ...
One of my favorites!! Allison is the best!!
Amazing! They can suddenly play this left handed, oh such talent.
Yeah I happen to know for a fact Tyminski's guitar is a righty; so this here is a rare feat.
@@dap777754the video is flipped they all appear playing left handed while they are playing right handed
Checking in. Still brings tears.
My 10 yr granddaughter learned the violin to play for me on this song
Six years later: is she still playing?
I see a lot of videos that are flipped like this. I wish they stop this
Lots of them are flipped because of uploading or capture issues. Sometimes I have to edit my vids to make sure they're pointed in the right direction. lol
Alison, and every member of the band, is incredibly talented.
