My friend and co worker enjoyed Matt's music. We kinda shared that. He shot himself last month. Every Sunday we worked together. Every Sunday I listen to heckler. And remember Brett Daniels.
I listen to death metal. Recently I've been gifted with hearing Matt, Benjamin Todd, Tyler Childers, and a few others. This song touches my soul. This blue grass movement is so talented, these guys are Legends!

I saw this dude live at the prophet bar in Dallas. The room shook when he played, his voice carried out to the streets and the his sheer will evokes a sense of passion that is extremely hard to find these days. Keep killing it Matt!
Was he signing any cds by chance? I see him soon and was wondering if he’d do that. Haha. If not I’m still buying a hard copy. I already bought a digital copy on Bandcamp. 😍
I’m seeing them soon in West Virginia!!! I too learned of Matt through lost dog. They are both amazing. None of my friends listen to this type of music. I need new friends. 😂
Benjamin Ryan it’s another song of Matt hecklers called blue eyes dancing. I’m not sure he’s originally in it but they played it together on this channel.
The story you're telling romanticizes the things that I have ached for in my life. Having a heritage and people that teach you things of value that really mean something give value on completely different levels.
Well, youtube has disclosed that the algorithm only counts the 1st time from each IP address each day normally, but maybe a few times each day if it's music or something else that would be reasonable to watch more than once a day.
Love that smug satisfied look on his face after the last strum. Id feel ike that too if I could write and play that well. Props Matt, props where props are due!
I was amazed at how funny Matt is during his live show. Great stage presence, he is more than happy to play and laugh with his audience. Well worth the money for a ticket to see him do his thing, y’all.
His energy is electric when he's singing. This performance has a presence of pure musical instinct that isn't present in a lot of musical acts. He's helping something speak that is greater than himself.
I saw Matt Heckler open for Lost Dog Street Band in Seattle and fell in love. He is amazing! I could hardly look away, his voice carries well and I was transported. I wish they were coming back to Seattle for their next tour. :(
I dont know how this channel manages to pack so much undiscovered talent into one place, but keep them coming. Its inspiring to an aspiring musician that artists can still be organically be discovered.
I come back to this video just to hear that dude say "hell yeah" when the song is over. That's real love and passion for music, something that's been lost with all the mass-produced pop bullshit that is so pervasive now.
The rolling hills of the Piedmont call out your name. Out to pasture in the sweetest refrain. And I pulled in a white cross and got to asking around town. In hopes that I could see you again. You had gone up to the mountain, higher ground to make a stand Perched up on a ledge with a rifle in your hand. Singing: I don’t need no man, To miss all those days gone by And long for those better times I wish I could ease your mind Like the wind blowing wild through the long leaf pine. 110, it felt like nothing on an August day Down to the Haw to wash it all away Hear the holler of the ten point white tailed collar Circle left(?) and promenade Cicadas in the summer time and cider in the fall If I can’t have the girl I love then I won’t love at all And I’ll catch my own damn self when I fall To miss all those days gone by And long for those better times I wish I could ease your mind Like the wind blowing wild through the long leaf pine
"If I can't have the girl I love then I won't love at all" So true I feel this song like no other as I'm going through the same thing. I wish she could see this because that's exactly how I feel.
This is the video of this guy that really made me see that he’s not just some average musician. There’s something special and authentic about these artists from Kentucky. The way he kinda just makes a makes a grin at the end like he knows how great that was made me smile.
This song moves me in the most forceful, fundamental way. The speed at which the song flies at you, the clarity in voice, the lyrics. Fuck me running. I love it. And it's gotten me through a lot of shit. Thank you, Matt.
OMG, Matt Heckler! Get in my pocket! I am crushing on this Appalachian Irish man BIG TIME! You are ridiculously gifted, unique, and entertaining. Stick a fork in me, y’all... I’m done. 🔥
Everyone should do themselves a favor and look up the Rub Alcohol video on Matt Heckler’s UA-cam channel. If you currently play the banjo, it will make you want to just quit playing the banjo. 😂
There was a time in my life where i sat heartbroken in my stepfathers shed, drinking whisky and smoking the bob marley, by myself, listening to matt heckler, benjamin todd, the hill county devil, and all these pop punk "im sad as fuck" bands like neck deep and citizen, foxing and brand new, all over some girl i thought id lost forever. That was 2019, i have a baby girl thats nearly 2 now, with the girl i thought id never see again, happier than i ever thought possible, at one point this song broke me down to an empty husk, but now i can look back and adore matt for giving me some kind of emotional release during such a shit time.
I just found this song. I lived in White Cross for several years, used to go have band practice in Saxapahaw, worked in Carrboro and all around Chatham County. I used to go to the Haw ALL THE FUCKING TIME. I left for New Orleans about 5 years ago, but I havent wanted to go home just SOOO goddamn bad until hearing this. Absolutely beautiful song. 110, it felt like nothing
I used to spend my summer days following his old band Deep Chatham around North Carolina. One of the last shows I saw them play was on the Haw River. Man does this song bring up some feels. Miss Deep Chatham a lot, glad that Matt is making music still. Wish I knew what happened to the rest of them though. What a great time those guys were.
I just saw them in Tampa and hearing him play this was unlike no other. The room was full his music and injoyment it was fantastic to see him with lost dog!
I went to the haw to swim was when I was 16, one of the first times I hangout with my future wife. I still remember what she was wearing and that was 16 years ago. This song does exactly what he wanted it to, brings me back got that time and place, before I went to iraq, before I went to afghanistan, when all I wanted to do was swing on a rope swing and hangout with my friends. Thanks gems, I really like this song
Whoa. Im in upstate NY, my bday is April too. Dont think I can miss that. Prolly end up going alone. Thanks a lot for this heads up tho... seriously, big time.
Listening to this right now while sitting on a rock in the middle of the Haw River drinking a beer and smoking a cig, Thank you for this song. This is home.
I just received my shirt in the mail today. You nailed it Anthony. My grandfather who has passed (the man who raised me) loved Woodie Guthrie, and he loved that quote in particular. So it was a little bittersweet, but beautiful none the less. You and all the wonderful musicians you show us, just keep bringing me to tears :') Thank you so much Anthony, and if you ever make your way home, let me know...I'd love to buy you a beer. Much love to everyone reading this.
Matt of course you’re so refined on anything with strings but its your passionate way of singing out that really grabs me inside your album was great you’re great keep it up
When I was up there I wished I'd never come down. Back to the valley through A back alley was the way to drown. When you look out over winding bends to no rivers end, Through crest and creek then back again... There's no way not to change the way you mend. The man in the start said play to your part; While expressing the pattern that stays in your heart.
When I am overwhelmed by good folkish music (from the US, irish, scotish, georgian, yemenite, nevermind) I tend to accompany it with barking sounds like Woody Guthrie used to do it in some of his songs. To be able to do so, for me, is a sign a song is good :)

I'd like to see Matt sometime... but just imagine what It'd be like to be on a grandcayon rafting trip with him playing this at camp in the evening around a fire in the middle of no where, hearing this echoing through the canyon would be so cool.. If you've rafted /paddled the grand you'll understand
Matt has such a cool and unique sound on the banjo. There are some greats that you can tell their guitar or banjo playing just by sound... and Matt is one of those

Praying for you brother.
Sorry for your loss
Sorry to hear that brother
Sorry for your loss brother. I hope Brett is resting in peace. I’ve lost too many friends the same way. Bless them all.
Thoughts and prayers brother

good Death Metal, like all music, is about telling stories and conveying emotion. That's not about one genre.
Metal and folk are processed similarly by my brain somehow. Evoke similar emotions. Check out Holy Locust and Bridge City Sinners

Dude, I was there too. Boots were stomping, and barns were burning.
was there as well, he killed it. Very sociable at the merch table afterwards as well.
Was he signing any cds by chance? I see him soon and was wondering if he’d do that. Haha. If not I’m still buying a hard copy. I already bought a digital copy on Bandcamp. 😍
@@PerryDust he signed the copies that my wife bought.
Thomas Ellis love the prophet bar. They have a ton of original acts
Ever since his song with Benjamin Todd I’ve wanted to see more of this guy. I’m happy to see this!
Hell yeah. And he's touring with them now can't wait
I’m seeing them soon in West Virginia!!! I too learned of Matt through lost dog. They are both amazing. None of my friends listen to this type of music. I need new friends. 😂
What song did he do with Benjamin Todd?
Benjamin Ryan it’s another song of Matt hecklers called blue eyes dancing. I’m not sure he’s originally in it but they played it together on this channel.
@@sean9373 I found it. Also amazing. About to go down a Matt Heckler/Benjamin Todd rabbit hole. See you on the other side!
My family grew up on the Haw River… the way this song describes the feeling of that… is just perfect.
The story you're telling romanticizes the things that I have ached for in my life. Having a heritage and people that teach you things of value that really mean something give value on completely different levels.
No, this has to be some sort of mistake. I am sure I have listened to this more than 54k times. Get it together UA-cam.
Well, youtube has disclosed that the algorithm only counts the 1st time from each IP address each day normally, but maybe a few times each day if it's music or something else that would be reasonable to watch more than once a day.
@@galaxyanimal True. It only counts replays if you open a new window, search for the video again, and play it from the search results.
Love that smug satisfied look on his face after the last strum. Id feel ike that too if I could write and play that well. Props Matt, props where props are due!
I found this song tripping on acid and it blew my mind. I listened to it like...30 times that night and have since started playing banjo. ❤🌈
Keep rocking that banjo brother
Keep playing and blessings!
Did the same thing high as Heaven
love you for that
Love this
i used to live with matt in hudson, new york in a ratty old farm house that probably shouldve been condemned. good times...
Only if him and Ben would come do a show around Hudson or Albany man closest thing is PA 8 hours away and you best bet I’m still going
@@maxmurray509 Albany georgia would be nice
@@hunteryoungblood649 lol I mean ny
@@maxmurray509 I know
Come to Charleston SC!!!
Matt is a huge talent and a very nice dude. Hope he keeps on this upward trajectory.
No joke. He's fantastic. I'd love to see more of this guy.
I was amazed at how funny Matt is during his live show. Great stage presence, he is more than happy to play and laugh with his audience. Well worth the money for a ticket to see him do his thing, y’all.

You have to see him live it's amazing!!
After 23 years of hearing, Ive found somthing that my soul can listen too.
God damn Matt Hecklers awesome. Gems on VHS you guys are my heroes.
Holy moly, awesome song and video! Was a pleasure having yall in the shop!
That is your shop in the video?
I met Matt at haw river ball room and have since fallen in love with his music and sound. So ready to see him in Asheville with Lost Dog!
"I wish i could ease you mind like wind blowing wild through the lonely pines" ⚡⚡⚡ good lord that blew my mind .
Hate to be that guy but its "long leaf pines". God bless
Listening in Missouri. This needs to be heard all over the world. This. This is music
Listening from joplin Missouri here.
I saw Matt Heckler open for Lost Dog Street Band in Seattle and fell in love. He is amazing! I could hardly look away, his voice carries well and I was transported. I wish they were coming back to Seattle for their next tour. :(
Matt's songwriting has been a huge inspiration to my own music. I'm so glad he's getting more recognition.
This song is so good I get goose bumps nearly every time I listen
Discovered Matt Heckler through you guys, love his stuff. This is one of my favourites off his new album! What a great version!
Wow. I love the twisted trail of finding a new song from a man you have listed to for along time.
Another genius song.
I dont know how this channel manages to pack so much undiscovered talent into one place, but keep them coming. Its inspiring to an aspiring musician that artists can still be organically be discovered.

The rolling hills of the Piedmont call out your name.
Out to pasture in the sweetest refrain.
And I pulled in a white cross and got to asking around town.
In hopes that I could see you again.
You had gone up to the mountain, higher ground to make a stand
Perched up on a ledge with a rifle in your hand.
Singing: I don’t need no man,
To miss all those days gone by
And long for those better times
I wish I could ease your mind
Like the wind blowing wild
through the long leaf pine.
110, it felt like nothing on an August day
Down to the Haw to wash it all away
Hear the holler of the ten point white tailed collar
Circle left(?) and promenade
Cicadas in the summer time and cider in the fall
If I can’t have the girl I love then I won’t love at all
And I’ll catch my own damn self when I fall
To miss all those days gone by
And long for those better times
I wish I could ease your mind
Like the wind blowing wild
through the long leaf pine
I'd have to say that's damn near perfect Sir.
Thanks! The "Out to pasture in the sweetest refrain," part was driving me crazy
I thought it was "through the lonely pines"
Chords please
@@mjq21xb only Mr Heckler knows for sure.
Nice job bud 👍 awesome sounds from the banjo! And good spin on the lyrics, keep it up!
I tear up and get shivers down my spine every time I listen to this. Wish I could pick a banjo like that. Thanks for that Matt.
I met Matt in Detroit at the Lost Dog show. Super nice guy!
Clay Worsley missed the show!!
@@aquaagu2 damn! same here.
"If I can't have the girl I love then I won't love at all"
So true I feel this song like no other as I'm going through the same thing. I wish she could see this because that's exactly how I feel.
Still love this song 4 years on , you created a masterpiece here Matt !! Much love to gems vhs !!

In two days I've listened to this song 16 times. Love it.
Keep the Matt heckler content coming, my man is incredibly talented
Beautiful! That's also some beautiful wood work as well!
This song moves me in the most forceful, fundamental way. The speed at which the song flies at you, the clarity in voice, the lyrics.
Fuck me running. I love it. And it's gotten me through a lot of shit. Thank you, Matt.
I came to GemsOnVHS for Benjamin Todd and found Matt Heckler
And Sierra Ferrell!
Same
OMG, Matt Heckler! Get in my pocket! I am crushing on this Appalachian Irish man BIG TIME! You are ridiculously gifted, unique, and entertaining. Stick a fork in me, y’all... I’m done. 🔥
I'm a straight male and I'm right there with you 😂
Right, makes the soul feel good
Everyone should do themselves a favor and look up the Rub Alcohol video on Matt Heckler’s UA-cam channel. If you currently play the banjo, it will make you want to just quit playing the banjo. 😂
But how do you really feel??

Cannot wait for you to come back through Houston. Absolutely amazing talent. Blows me away with every song.

I feel so cool listening to this in Phoenix. This man is Great!
I love Matt Heckler and I love GemsOnVHS

Matt is super good at drop thumbing. Like, god-tier. Like, one of the best at drop thumb banjo.
I just saw them in Tampa and hearing him play this was unlike no other. The room was full his music and injoyment it was fantastic to see him with lost dog!
Saw him too at the crowbar in ybor. Was working security had to stop to watch his set. Awesome guy. Got to drink a beer with him.

Listening to this right now while sitting on a rock in the middle of the Haw River drinking a beer and smoking a cig, Thank you for this song. This is home.
Being from White Cross and the Haw River area, this really reminds me of home.
Matt is such a unique and electrifying individual. Love it
This song is far too good to be this short, just means I'm going to have to keep hitting the replay button!
Right! This guy needs to make 12min songs lol
Ha, agreed! I worry the banjo might burst into flames if the songs are much longer though
I appreciate your music in the deepest way thank you
Carolina Mountain Music. Makes me love my home ❤️
Theres nothing like that Northwestern corner of that state. I long to be back there so much.

So if I had the opportunity to see Matt Heckler in Toronto Sunday night, I should do it, right?
Friggin rights!
Why is this even a question?? GOOOOOO!!!
Len Hockley so did you go?
We were there to see Flogging Molly but Matt was really impressive.
Amazing musician.
No, couldn't make it unfortunately.
I'd say yes
Amazing banjo picker!
This song hit me like spring!

Absolutely fantastic .
This made me cry. Thank you for playing
Dude I saw you in Tulsa at Cains...you're amazing dude .. much love brother
This is so amazing!!! I have never heard the banjo sound so alive in my life
I saw him live in Richmond VA. It was one of the best performances I have ever seen. I’ve seen hundreds of good shows.
dude i absolutely love your music. i swear i have seen everything of you that is on UA-cam.. i need more my brother lol you are the best.
Man this song just hit me like a brick!!! What a beautiful tune..
What a great artist. His live show is amazing. Keep on keeping on Matt
love your bang jo ,playing,song very love,GOOD LUCK!♥️🐾♥️😊
Awesome! Love hearing a song about where I'm from!
That's some mighty fine picking and a singin
I night listen to this 4 times a week at least. I won't get all mushy but you helped me. Thank you 🔥
Amazing. Towards the end of the song I found myself hollaring affirmational noises at the screen.
When I am overwhelmed by good folkish music (from the US, irish, scotish, georgian, yemenite, nevermind) I tend to accompany it with barking sounds like Woody Guthrie used to do it in some of his songs. To be able to do so, for me, is a sign a song is good :)
Oof, I've listened to this countless times since yesterday- every song I've heard Matt sing has instantly became a favorite.
I was born and raised in Hillsborough, NC, near the Haw River area. Makes me miss home.
love this video so much. Has inspired me a lot to get back into learning clawhammer. once I get new strings, this song will be an eventual goal
He makes that banjo sound huge! Awesome song.
Legitimately changed my outlook on life with this song
Love seeing Matt live! He's got some serious pipes.
Excelente video Saludos desde Guadalajara Jalisco México

Very much got the voice for it. Always impressed with the audio you guys manage to get on these. Great job all around.

Matt has such a cool and unique sound on the banjo. There are some greats that you can tell their guitar or banjo playing just by sound... and Matt is one of those
I live in alamance and the haw river goes right through it and is a bug part of alamance. It's so good to hear a song that's about the river
Thank you fellow ginger. This has inspired me to learn banjo and this song. Keep it up👍🏻
