You two are so talented: clogging, playing guitar and violin, singing, and making jewelry from quartz found in mountain streams. Thanks for sharing your gifts with us!
Thank you for watching!
They do rock popping too 🤣😂😂😂😂
That's what Dr. Darcy would call an accomplished woman!
No need to share the gifts out
Culture. Going back centuries. That’s what this is. So nice to see people who know who they are and who value that.
You ladies are absolutely precious and should be protected at all cost.
☺️🙏
I'm in love with your voice! 🤣🙌 Sláinte from Ireland.☘
Thank you! ❤️
Don’t you just love these ladies? Brilliant.
This is precious - are ya sure this isn’t my front porch after supper lol? My Scottish Mammaw taught my Cherokee Pappaw to clog in the 30’s (13 kids) and we ain’t let go of this part of a Good Clean Time. ❤️Sweet story of the Instruments being given to you Angels. Clog away and God bless you youngens. I’m thankful for ya.
Excellent job!!! 🤩I’m in CA and I took clogging as a child. Can still do it too. I was yellin out the names of the steps to my husband. “That’s a flatlander, sidewinder, a basic, a mountain goat!” etc. He just stared at me like 🫥. 😂😂
Watching this was fun. It's also nice to see who all was watching.
So so awesome!
Great. Show you girls always make my day
Theirs something about clogging that looks like your shuffling on air!
Always enjoy clogging and the music that drives your feet!! 😊
Thank you!! ❤️
Wonderful absolutely wonderful
Love this Sweet Ladies ❤❤❤
I liked that !!! I love watching cloggers ❤❤
You girls were so young! And you girls did great! That was amazing! ❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
Love this! 👏🏼💯❣️
Wow..Y'ALL are Just amazing!!! God- Sent!!!! 💜💙💜
Love this girls!!!
In watching you two, I can see how traditional mountain Folk style clogging came from the Irish Step dancing style. Great job!
More like traditional English clogging.
This is likely to have originated in Lancashire rather than Ireland. Check out some of the Lancastrian cloggers.
It's Celtic, period. Don't let these limeys steal from the Celts more than they already have.
@@jimmywells33 Considering so many of the Scottish and Irish migrated here and into the Appalachian mountains, I would agree with you. Same for our bluegrass music coming from the Scottish and Irish music.
Various forms of percussive clog and hard shoe dances were found in Ireland, Scotland, Wales and France and "wooden shoe" dances are recorded on the stage in England and Europe back through the 18thC and into the 17thC ( think Dutch Klompen or French style Sabots perhaps?). Records show Canadian male and competing lumberjacks and 19thC Vaudeville. US clog dancers came from many countries. The Appalachian folk made their own special version.
I just saw this video of you two. Your so talented and such lovely sweet women. God Bless you both. ❤️ Cheryl and Dixie🐕in Georgia
51 years old and still practice my homegrown buck dance. 👍🏻
Very sweet - enjoyed that a lot!
Super cool!!! Nice job ladies :)
WoW. Loved it!!!!
I am defiantly in the WRONG part of the country !!!! ( Tacoma, Washington) True American living at its finest. Great entertainment in a great family atmosphere. Love to watch the clogging !!
Hey thanks so much!!! 🙏 and it’s cool out there too!
I am trying to spare you future confusion and ridicule by telling you the word is “definitely” not “defiantly”. They mean different things.

OMG. I love you girls!

It’s really fun, thank you!
I love these video clips, i've only just discovered Buck and clog dancing from the states. I was aware of clog dancing from Wales and the north West of England though.
Lord a mercy! I would never get my legs untangled 😆🤣 y’all are so talented!😇
Thank you friend! 😭🙏😂
Love this so much!! We we're stationed in the UP. They were the friendliest, most helpful, nicest people just like back home in Tennessee. All our Southern pre conceived notions were sooooooo wrong. Loved it up there.
It’s a really sweet place, I loved Lake Michigan!
Born and raised in the South.
Southern pre conceived notions?
Some people need to turn the TV off and come below the Mason Dixon Line.
GOD BLESS THE SOUTH
yee yee
I did not know what that kind of dancing was called. I like it. Thank you 🥰
The city of Mint Hill NC has a festival every spring featuring arts, craft, music and usually some clogging competition. Thanks for sharing this clip.

I LOVE watching you girls clog! Isn't that a mix of Irish dance & clogging? Good to keep traditions.
It is a little Irish when we lift our legs so high lol!
@@thepressleygirls very talented ladies. irish stepdance is fairly young most likely camfrom scottish stepdance. this tho,is english or welsh in origin. very enjoyable.
There was never a tradition of wearing clogs in Ireland, it started in the cotton mills of northern England with girls tapping their clogs to the beat of the looms, this turned into competition, every inn in England had a plate to step on.
You two are so sweet..... And talented.
Lord have mercy is there anything else I'm gonna see these two ol curs doin, boy y'all never had a dull moment in the Presley cabin did ya? Don't see how y'all got that much talent in two girls.
🙏❤️

I'm sure that David was a great friend and y'all were richly blessed to be a part of each others lives! Looking forward to that great reunion to come, where the music will play on forever.
