Sierra Ferrell's Fans Don't Let Her Down
The climax of the performance by Sierra and her band in Ponte Vedra, FL of John Lennon's "Don't Let Me Down." To make this video, I edited together sections of three videos available at Sierra's Facebook page or UA-cam.

Sierra Ferrell and band-Waltz Across Texas (Gruene Hall 3/15/2023 in New Braunfels Texas)

Beautiful performance by Sierra and her brilliant band (Oliver Bates Craven, Josh Rilco, Geoff Saunders. of the great Ernest Tubb song. (Excerpt from the full concert uploaded by "Blind Man.). Craven has succeeded in doing what I would have thought was impossible-filling Josie Toney's shoes. He doesn't have Josie's ravishing smile or dancing eyes, but he's no less magnificent a musician, has hi...

Sierra Ferrell Gum Tree Canoe Green River Festival 2021
Переглядів 6283 роки тому
Sierra Ferrell's wonderful performance at the John Hartford tribute Rachel Baiman put together for the Green River Festival 2021. "Gumtree Canoe," with words by S. S. Steele and music by A. F. Winnemore, was first published in 1847 and was often performed-with faux "Negro" dialect-in Minstrel shows. John Hartford's recording is legendary, but Sierra makes the song her own, as she does with all ...

    This performance gives me goosebumps. I love so much of what's going on here. The music, lyrics and this arrangement, Such Fun! The whole ensemble contribute to putting on a banger number... "Follow that! MWHAhahaha!" Sierras immediate invite for audience pARTicipation, singing, stage presence, costume, Josies stage presence, playing, singing, the stomps she gives to count in the last outro, her yelling "YEAH!", these women's stage presence and the chemistry they produce is palpable. I'm getting all this off a screen and recording, I can't even imagine how amazing it must have felt to experience in person. I'm sad Josie isn't in the band anymore, very much missed. I hope whatever caused the departure works out positively for everyone or can be resolved/reconciled. Wishing you all Happiness and Health.
