You are such a great singer its unbelievable. Im a retired police officer after a couple back surgerys. My greatest regret was losing my love 20 years ago Nicole O'bryan, your graceful music is a Godsend. Thanks Brandon
I want to say that through dark intrepid times of pandemics, riots, despair and hopelessness, you people have been a light house shining to all who will see. Offering sweet comfort and goodness to all who need it. You give freely and with love and it's healing. Thank you for that. God Bless.
With so many of their songs, I feel my heart warmed and my eyes a little teary. So beautiful. All of them. Indebted to some that know nothing about my existence. Thankful to God that made them all.
I'm a black man nothing but good music here, my father grew up on a farm near Vidalia Georgia ,he would listen to the local radio station which was country, the first singer he intruded to me to was Johnny Cash and flat and scug the dulling bandbjoe ,nothing move my like blue grass, it reaches my soul ,since my father past this music makes me think about good times, and the band should be on TV, I like rap and R and B but nothing is better than bluegrass and all life matter God bless you in jesus name
In my experience this band pours out good vibes and wholesomeness, a slice of the best humanity has to offer. I'm glad you seem to have picked up on this. God bless. . .
The lead singer has the voice of an angel. This song is emotional; about James Taylor missing his hometown & she conveys that emotion beautifully. I would love to see the Petersons cover Sweet baby James with the same lead singer
In spite of the resuming of your concerts you continue to publish songs here in which you are always full of joy and lightness. Thanks a lot because this is exactly what is missing at the moment in this cynical and disoriented world. And above all take care of yourself, such a rhythm of recordings, shows, performances must be difficult to maintain.
@@ThePetersens I hope you will continue your frequent UA-cam presence, especially considering your explosive success in views and subscribers in recent months. I think it helps draw people to Branson to see your show, which helps support other local businesses. I live in Wisconsin, found your music via UA-cam, and plan to visit Branson for the first time to see your show(s). I am especially interested in your gospel and Christmas shows.
Hi Jbar,... I agree completely. She literally dances with her fiddle. On one of the “outtakes,” she plays “Taps” with a cup of coffee on her head. I think her siblings bet she couldn’t play without moving. I hope she had some money on the challenge, but probably not. Funny!
If mama bear is playing the double bass. Kudos to you and your family. Makes no difference. I think this. I found them thru my granddaughter’s nursery rhymes. Wholesome, talented, and magic. Stunning. Much love. ❤
Can't escape the fact that this family's charm isn't only in their musicianship but in their affinity for smiling, whether the song has a serious tone or not. It's the joy that good music was created for.
Yes! And you have to hear Katie Petersen singing like an angel at her church in Branson, Missouri! Just amazing singing! ua-cam.com/video/nLC6I47tjHY/v-deo.html
Everybody here in North Carolina loves this one! Great job, James should hire you to sing it with him. The house where James Taylor grew up in Chapel Hill was put up for sale a couple of years ago, so I brought my guitar over there during the open house. They had me set up on the back porch where James learned to play the guitar, and everybody who came by asked me to play this song. One of the best days ever.
Love you, folks. Thanks for another awesome performance. You folks are such a joy to listen to and watch. I am still smiling thinking about Julianne rolling her eyes in anticipation of what she knows is coming, then Matt and Emmett doing their chest-bump in the background. Reminds me of my own family. You are such a Blessing. God Speed!
The Petersens Ha! “Coworkers”? The way you all perform, and the obvious joy you all have singing and playing together, I can’t imagine you consider this “WORK”! You are THE BEST!
Katie seems to love performing ,,, her smiles are heart warming ,,, I enjoy the way the ladies smile at each other approvingly while they are performing ,,, The group are indeed blessed
Great point. There's not 1 time watching them that I say, 'wow I wish.....had sung that', and my son the music major pointed out the harmonies. 'wow that guy (Matt) doesn't overpower the ladies. nice!'
I don't know about everyone else but when I put the Petersens on and lean back the bad things from what I do just melt away. Thank you so much for being able to do that, I really need it some days..
I can't believe it took me 3 years to notice the Petersen family. and I live in Missouri. You all have so much grace that even the songs that are not hymns can get me to cry out for Jesus Christ, and Carolina. :-)
@@Powertuber1000 He is a family friend, and Matt's "adopted" brother (family joke). Emmett Franz joined The Petersen band a few years ago. His father, Randy Franz, also does some sound work, etc, with the band. The Franz Family Band toured for around 20 years, similar to The Petersens. The merging of the Petersen and Franz musical talents is a gift for the world to enjoy.
Here is where you can see what sets this group apart. When Katie, Matt, and Ellen are singing and playing closely together, they ALL acknowledge and clearly appreciate each other. They pay attention to each other, they nod and smile at each other, and by their “body language,” it is obvious that they all love and respect each other. And they embrace Emmett, too. Wonderful family!
I agree. If you look their songs recorded 2017- 2018 and compare now, you'll notice the band is now mature, very well rounded. Emmett brought a huge improvment to the group. Back in 2017 they were good. Now they are a world class band
Katie sings beautifully like Snow White with birds singing in the background and the horses and the trees listening. Her ability to change her voice to fit to each song is awesome. As always, impressed by their miraculous skill to adjust the volume of chorus and instruments by using a single microphone in the center. Miraculous outdoor recording. Such a peaceful and consoling sound of music, which heals us all living in the insanity of cities and of the pandemic.
*LYRICS - Carolina in my Mind*
------------
In my mind I'm gone to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine?
Can't you just feel the moon shinin'?
Ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind?
Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind
Well, Karen, she's a silver sun
You best walk her way and watch it shine
Watch her watch the mornin' come
A silver tear appearing now
I'm cryin', ain't I?
Gone to Carolina in my mind
Well, there ain't no doubt in no one's mind
That love's the finest thing around
I'll whisper something soft and kind
Like hey babe, the sky's on fire
I'm dyin', ain't I?
Gone to Carolina in my mind
In my mind I'm gone to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine?
Can't you just feel the moon shinin'?
Ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind?
Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind
Well, dark and silent late last night
You know I might have heard the highway call
And geese in flight and dogs that bite
Well, the signs that might be omens say
I'm going, I'm going
I'm gone to Carolina in my mind
And with a holy host of others
Standin' around me
Still I'm on the dark side of the moon
And it seems like it goes on like this forever
You must forgive me
If I'm up and gone to Carolina in my mind
In my mind I'm gone to Carolina
Can't you see the sunshine?
Can't you just feel the moon shinin'?
Ain't it just like a friend of mine
To hit me from behind?
Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind
Yes, I'm gone to Carolina in my mind
I'm gone to Carolina in my mind
(I'm gone)
I'm gone, I'm gone, I'm gone
Say nice things about me 'cause
I'm gone south now
Carry on without me
I'm gone
I'm gone to Carolina in my mind

In your mind she’s still with you 🥰
Just discovering the Petersens... absolutely love them.
No laser lights, no pyrotechnics, or stupid costumes. Just stand up, play your instrument and sing like professionals. True talent is on display.
Like 99% of musicians perform as you described lol.
Yeah.
They tried pyrotechnics but it frightened the horses.
I feel like a laser pointer duct taped to Emmet's slide would make this better.
totally pure
This song really showcases Katie's voice.
Simply beautiful.
Dobro arrangements don't get any better than that. Well done Emmett.
James Taylor's best song and covered by Alison Kraus so you are trying to fill some big shoes. I think you succeeded. Great Job.
I want to say that through dark intrepid times of pandemics, riots, despair and hopelessness, you people have been a light house shining to all who will see. Offering sweet comfort and goodness to all who need it. You give freely and with love and it's healing. Thank you for that. God Bless.
Amen!
Well said, thank you
You should hear Katie Petersen singing like an angel at her church in Branson, Missouri! It is truly amazing! ua-cam.com/video/nLC6I47tjHY/v-deo.html

What a breath of fresh air. America has hope. God bless this family.
The three girls have such different and amazing voices. Harmonizing together is just stunning...

In my experience this band pours out good vibes and wholesomeness, a slice of the best humanity has to offer. I'm glad you seem to have picked up on this. God bless. . .
the banjo was an invention by a black man, great contribution.
Right back at you
May the Lord Jesus Christ bless u
Katie is a seriously good singer.
Best cover of this song in fifty years!
Outdoor, in the woods, condenser microphones, sounds clear as the sky. Incredible
Katie is a cuteness overload.
The lead singer has the voice of an angel. This song is emotional; about James Taylor missing his hometown & she conveys that emotion beautifully. I would love to see the Petersons cover Sweet baby James with the same lead singer
Just the song and the singer when a guy is just wanting to relax his brain. Thank you all.
What a great gift to the world you are! Thank you so much.
So glad you enjoyed it!
Dieser Musik zuzuhören ist wie eine Entführung ...... eine Entführung in eine bessere Welt.....
Vielen Dank für die wunderbare Musik!
The amount of peace I found in listening to this was amazing
Will Cardone - try it on the toilet. tranquility on the tank

I love this family. They represent the real American culture. Greetings from Mexico.
Katie sings with her eyes as much as her voice, with her whole being really.
Hi Jbar,... I agree completely. She literally dances with her fiddle. On one of the “outtakes,” she plays “Taps” with a cup of coffee on her head. I think her siblings bet she couldn’t play without moving. I hope she had some money on the challenge, but probably not. Funny!

She"s the best :)
I love her...

That fiddle player, Katie, is pretty awesome. Such a bright spot in the dark world. Thank y'all for your music!
Fab family of beautiful musicianship and masters of the craft
"Watch her watch the morning come...whisper something soft and kind"
Beautiful!
A fantastic version sung with convincing honesty. I'm sure James Taylor would absolutely approve.
He does! He actually used a clip of this video in one of his own shows.😊
@@FrankvdMuijsenberg No wonder. They are excellent.
@@FrankvdMuijsenberg Did he actually? Do you have a link to it?
The harmonies. And that dobro. So delicate when it's easty to dominate. Beautiful.
Katie is my absolute favorite kind of musician. She's not thinking about anything other than how it feels to live inside that song.
I agree! Perfect description of Katie’s performance. Well said!
Poland loves your music... thank you.. greetings from Cracow/Kraków Poland
I just saw James Taylor and Jackson Browne live and James Taylor had a tribute video before and this video was in it!
Great show wasn't it? I enjoyed those 2 legends.
That's wonderful!
That chest bump at the end was DEFINITELY not Julianne approved 😂
Awesome performance as always! ❤️
I m from Brazil..and I m very glad in listening you Petersens. WONDERFUL
Simultaneously wholesome, pure, angelic, moving, soothing, and soulful. What a truly talented family.
I can't get enough of these folks . Keeping Americana music alive . God Bless 'em !
Have you ever seen a happier person than Katie singing a good song? Magical.
You should hear Katie Petersen singing like an angel at her church! It is amazing! ua-cam.com/video/nLC6I47tjHY/v-deo.html
She has to be the proudest "soerarch" in the world.
Katie rules my friend
There is something genuine there.
they are like alchemists...anything they touch becomes gold
This is absolute greatness!
The way of singing shows how much Katie loves to sing.
If mama bear is playing the double bass. Kudos to you and your family.
Makes no difference. I think this.
I found them thru my granddaughter’s nursery rhymes.
Wholesome, talented, and magic.
Stunning. Much love. ❤
My only regret is that I have only one "Like" to give music as melodic and pure as this.
Can't escape the fact that this family's charm isn't only in their musicianship but in their affinity for smiling, whether the song has a serious tone or not. It's the joy that good music was created for.
You can feel the love and pride for each other.
@@robertbates6057 best ever.
Love this.
I can feel the sun shine when Katie and Ellen sing along
Yes! And you have to hear Katie Petersen singing like an angel at her church in Branson, Missouri! Just amazing singing! ua-cam.com/video/nLC6I47tjHY/v-deo.html
I love when Katie sings, she has the sweetest, pure, beautiful voice. Absolutely incredible cover of a great classic. Beautiful katie
Man, she's got a smile when she sings that could melt Alaska...or something like that.
I honestly like this better than the original. This family has ridiculous talents. Singer has incredible stage presence and charm,,.
Beautiful! Perfect for a summer day and this NC native living in Tennessee...
. . . .Both beautiful states , from Ohio. We will stay United with bands like the Petersens. God Bless Our free and lovely Land.

Hi I’m just a regular person working 28 days per month. I listen to your voices pretty much every day. It’s relaxing thank you.
Their beauty is effortless.
The Petersens are Carnegie Hall quality consistently, and this is one of their best.
Well said! I love almost all songs and videos. This one is perfect, a masterpiece.
I'll go! Where can I get my ticket!
Before discovering The Petersens, I thought that a smile could be seen. Now thanks to them ,I know that it is also heard ... Thank you.
Well said
The pureness in her voice is amazing. Each one of them brings something unique to the table.
The guy on a steel guitar has a peaceful soul. Btw love you all.
This is one of the most beautiful things Ive ever heard
James Taylor would be proud. Beautiful group and beautiful music
Love you, folks. Thanks for another awesome performance. You folks are such a joy to listen to and watch. I am still smiling thinking about Julianne rolling her eyes in anticipation of what she knows is coming, then Matt and Emmett doing their chest-bump in the background. Reminds me of my own family. You are such a Blessing. God Speed!
Hahaha that’s the beauty of having Emmett and Matt as coworkers 😂
The Petersens Ha! “Coworkers”? The way you all perform, and the obvious joy you all have singing and playing together, I can’t imagine you consider this “WORK”! You are THE BEST!
I was born and raised in the Carolinas but now I live in missouri, I have to say I'm honestly in tears every time I listen to this
LIKE A BREATH OF FRESH AIR!!! THANK YOU ALL
That chest bump at the end xD Awesome as always!
We had a good laugh about it haha
I like the playfulness! Your good enough that you never have to take yourselves too seriously. 👍
@@ThePetersens The look on Julianne's face is priceless.
Katie seems to love performing ,,, her smiles are heart warming ,,, I enjoy the way the ladies smile at each other approvingly while they are performing ,,, The group are indeed blessed
This is absolutely beautiful!!!! Katie was fantastic! As usual Emmett hit it out of the park with that one!
Thank you!
the whole family is fantastic :)
Emmett is always off the chain!!!
Beautiful, inspirational music. With families like this, I have faith that America can transcend and overcome the many challenges we face.
In our times it's become unusual to hear and see such beauty. Absolutely wholesome!
It’s rare that each one is equally talented, usually one will shine through in a group but they all seem to shine
Yes.....and when you put them all together, what a synergy!
Great point. There's not 1 time watching them that I say, 'wow I wish.....had sung that', and my son the music major pointed out the harmonies. 'wow that guy (Matt) doesn't overpower the ladies. nice!'
I bet it was the horses best day of the year when they started playing.
Best Version I have heard....
Beautiful....love Katie's voice
I don't know about everyone else but when I put the Petersens on and lean back the bad things from what I do just melt away. Thank you so much for being able to do that, I really need it some days..
Its a little sad to hear there are bad things from what you do. Maybe if you don't do that ?? Try a less bad producing method ??
You all show the best of America. Super family and sound. Thanks from Ireland. Hope you all come over.
Katie, you sing with your heart . Thank you dear. Wonderful music from a wonderful family.
I'm speechless, just beautiful...and Katie's smile is the icing on the cake.

@@astridveenstradjcjfdififjf799 what?
Katie Petersen, how did this world even exist before your smile?
Of all the Peterson's songs , this is my absolute favorite.I have to listen to it at least once a week.
Written by James Taylor
Katie Petersen is a precious gem, absolutely lovely
Katie: sweetness and light.
Love every song this group sings and the way they do it.
Katie's voice is the most relaxing thing i've ever heard!
I love the looks Ellen gives Katie. She's like "This is special, really special".
That's the most beautiful rendition I've ever heard. Thank you for the goosebumps. Bless Y'all.
Im in love with Katie. She is so amazing beautiful and an angelic voice. The whole family is wonderful.
This is one of my favourite country songs, this has to be the best version I've ever heard.
I can't believe it took me 3 years to notice the Petersen family. and I live in Missouri. You all have so much grace that even the songs that are not hymns can get me to cry out for Jesus Christ, and Carolina. :-)
This whole family and I include the guy on the Dobro guitar, are all so talented. God has so richly blessed all of you.
Dobro not steel guitar...
Is not that guy a member of their family?

I'm so envious! Those horses get a free live concert.
your songs will enter the history of music, your videos are true works of art
God I love her voice
Emmett is amazing. A great addition to the group.
Katie knocks it out of the park!
Yes! And you should hear Katie Petersen singing at her church! It is amazing! ua-cam.com/video/nLC6I47tjHY/v-deo.html
WOW. This is the first time I've heard the Petersen's, I'm in love with the sound they create together
The Petersen playing the violin has a wonderful warm perfect tone. Beautiful
That is Katie Petersen. She has her own UA-cam Channel with some great videos.
God did not spare musical talent for this family. Amazing song.
Here is where you can see what sets this group apart. When Katie, Matt, and Ellen are singing and playing closely together, they ALL acknowledge and clearly appreciate each other. They pay attention to each other, they nod and smile at each other, and by their “body language,” it is obvious that they all love and respect each other. And they embrace Emmett, too. Wonderful family!
I noticed the same.
Grand Ole Opre hear they come!
I agree. If you look their songs recorded 2017- 2018 and compare now, you'll notice the band is now mature, very well rounded. Emmett brought a huge improvment to the group. Back in 2017 they were good. Now they are a world class band
The thing that sets them apart is Matt blinking 1000 times in the first minute
Don't forget Julianne and Karen too. Julianne is so cute when Matt and Emmett do the chest bump behind her!
I love the angelic voice of Katie. ❤
Tears every time when this particular videos guitar starts
So much love for this band. I feel so privileged to be able to listen to this music
Katie's voice as the main voice was an excellent choice. She was perfect on that song. It looks like it was made for her.
Yes! And you should hear Katie Petersen singing at her church in Branson, Missouri! It is amazing! ua-cam.com/video/nLC6I47tjHY/v-deo.html
This is the best version EVER of this beautiful song; Katie is an angel and her interpretation blows my mind. Love it!!!
Living in North Carolina, in these hard days, your voices take me to the days of beautiful sunshine..tears.. thank you.

I think this is the best of the Petersens covers.
That would be up for debate; Julianne's covers of "Dreams" and "Here Comes the Sun" are phenomenal...
