Such superb voices, and harmonies. I'm in love X3. Thanks so much for sharing your healing gift
I love this song, it was the first song i filmed my daughter dancing to💜😋✌️
When talent lives and shines (as I think it does with these 3) our world is a much better place ..thank you , thank you , thank you ladies. Can't wait for the "I'm (still) with her" tour - please come back to Bristol UK - it was a fab gig. I'm a fan !
TheParatuner on their own they are great musicians but they really have something special here. I saw Sarah J with the Milk Carton Kids and that was great but these 3 together need to do an album. And I love how a lot of these young musicians graduate from of some of the best music conservatories in the US. :) Sarah Jarosz is an amazing mandolin and banjo musician ....
You know that moment when a song is so beautifully genius you can't help but tear up a bit? That's this right here.
Oh yeah… beauty at its purest
I'm a fan of anything John Hiatt does, and of anyone who has the good taste to cover his songs, of course these ladies are all stars on their own,love them all.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
You are so fabulous!!! Thanks so much.
Soooo good
My goodness. What a beautiful sound.
Beautiful !
Great song
Beautiful
I love this John Hiatt song!
Stunning!
brilliant
A++
Give them some electric guitars, bass and drums and they will take off like a rocket
Bad ass shit...Sorry for the swear words but this rocks...
Fiddle overdubbed, yeah? Sarah never shown bowing and singing (even when she's the prominent voice), and little bit at 1:55 doesn't appear to match. Sounds great, I'm just into production
I know I’m eight years late, but this just makes me happy to be alive at this time.
Same here. Better late than never!
Sara, Sarah, Aoife, if you ladies ever read this, I just want you to know you achieved musical perfection with this.
Also, Watkins deserves way more recognition than she gets. Her voice and fiddle presence are both mesmerising.
This song is even more moving when you realize it is autobiographical...Hiatt's wife committed suicide living him the single parent of their infant daughter, Lilly.
I heard that they had to put them in different rooms in the studio, not because of sound but because if you put so much talent and perfect pitch in one room, the studio spontaneously combusts.
Yes!!

Well put
Absolutely!
👍
Whoever recorded and mixed this gets a gold star. So perfectly balanced and blended. You can hear each one of their voices and instruments like a flock of birds all around you on a summer morning.
Perfect.
It is beautiful, no doubt, but surely the poetry is as important as the artistry of the musicians - clear diction not something encouraged in upbringing?
lndeed beautiful although I wish I could distinguish all the words - a favourite nevertheless.
Have to disagree slightly. When Aiofe sings full voice it is a bit too bright. Great on the breathy parts though. That’s not a cheap mike on her either. Otherwise great to hear them in this setting rather than the many live hall shows I’ve heard. Best is still the NPR tiny desk concert, sound wise anyway. Talent always shines through.
I get the chills all over when Aiofe sings. And talk about beautiful......
@@ericb9426 if one could make a living picking peanuts from unicorn poop i may have a use for the flock of them swimming in my thoughts.
or you might know your poop, which I must admit, is more probable.
Is anyone like me and comes back to listen to this a couple of times ... every single week? For several years now.
I discovered this video just about a year ago, and it's a rare week that I don't come back to it at least once.
Even the camera work in the video is amazing!
YES!!!
watkins voice is super sexy, jarosz is most soulful and aoife always sounds like a singing spirit or ghost, all so incredible expecially together, music is ecstacy,
Watkins voice made me fall in love, but Jarosz... She is fucking phenomenal.. my favorite artist, although I have an equal love to Aoife's work with Crooked Still. I can't pick a favorite!
me either, love them all
Throw in Alison Krauss and I might die ^_^
hell yeah i just posted some allison krauss yesterday i think... great minds think alike.. allison is my sexy reptile girl
+The Tree I wish they did more with "I'm With Her" 😰
Not since Dolly, Linda and Emmy Lou sang have I ever heard such an amazing trio of voices.
Agree
Dolly, Linda and Emmylou have amazing voice, and I can always tell which lady sings which part. Lovely as they sound, they do not have the blend that these three women do. I can't tell who is singing high, middle or low, and they change it up all of the time. Superb!
@@kathrynwebster6307 I agree. I like this chemistry more. Greater than the sum of the parts. This is like CSNY magic. Not that Trio aren't fabulous together and moreso backing up others or singing themselves.
Beautiful harmony! Cant go wrong with a John Hiatt song. Hope more and more young artists record his songs
Aldous Huxley said; "After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music." I hope somewhere Aldous is listening and smiling.
These girls are the embodiment of all the good things happening to bluegrass/folk music right now.
Check out Mandolin Orange too. Bet they'd be friends! So good.
Not just bluegrass in my opinion, although that is certainly their main focus, these girls are the best thing to happen to music in general in the last several years.Saw them a week ago in Connecticut and have listened to nothing else since. This song in particular embodies all that is special about them. I especially love the effortless subtle brilliance of Sarah's banjo playing, she is a force of nature on anything with strings.
correction, women
or you could call them musicians
i couldn't agree more.
This kind of perfection is rare in any genre so extremely well done
My baby's gone and I don't know why
She let out this morning
Like a rusty shot in a hollow sky
Left me without warning
Sooner than the dogs could bark
And faster than the sun rose
Down to the banks in an old mule car
She took a flatboat across the shallow
[Chorus:]
Left me in my tears to drown
She left a baby daughter
Now the water's wide and deep and brown
She's crossing muddy waters
Tobacco standing in the fields
Be rotten come November
And a bitter heart will not reveal
A spring that love remembers
When that sweet brown girl of mine
Her black eyes are ravens
We broke the bread and drank the wine
From a jug that she'd been saving
[Chorus]
Left me in my tears to drown
She left a baby daughter
Now the water's wide and deep and brown
She's crossing muddy waters
Baby's crying and the daylight's gone
That big oak tree is groaning
In rush of wind and river of song
I can hear my true love moaning
Crying for her baby child
And crying for her husband
And crying for that river's wild
To take her from her loved ones
[Chorus 2x]
Left me in my tears to drown
She left a baby daughter
Now the water's wide and deep and brown
She's crossing muddy waters
Thank you!
How strangely wonderful it is to hear music wherein every instrument speaks with its own voice, instead of being mixed into an amorphous wall of sound. Beautiful!
Fine, fine, yet sad, lyrics, but a performance from the heavens. Magnificent in every way.
well im super pissed i didnt know this excisted until just now
Better late than never? Welcome to the rabbit hole of actually good current music.
You should be-but the "Album" still is not available. Waiting for 2 years now.
Korey Green just be glad you aren't me and learned about them JUST TODAY!
This is musical magic here! It only happens once in a blue moon. Thank God we get to hear it here!
My vote for best band of the decade! So much talent, brilliance and joy! I can't decide which I like better; the stunning harmonies or the perfect unison that you gals are able to achieve.Thank you for the relief and comfort you're bringing during this difficult time.
Stunning vocals. Listen to the harmony at 2:41. They make it look soooo easy.
Can't get enough of their voices blended together
Anyone know the time signature?
goosebumps!!!
These young ladies make me very happy. Good choice of tunes. This is one of John Hyatt's best songs
isn't nice to hear real musicians without filter? I hope they come to Ausitn.. LOVE Sarah Jarosz
Tim Fenton It is one of John's best acoustic songs, and a very good song. Personally, I'm more of a fan of his electric stuff like "Detroit Made" and "Slow Turning".
It's funny how folk music is semi-closely related to mainstream country (or at least 'crosses over' a lot or something)... yet the amount of like I have for mainstream country is a big zero, while I really really like folk music like this. These are some talented musicians.
Bravo!
+glibbergloop I don't know much about country music, but with artists like O'Donovan, you can really feel that Irish heaviness. Same thing with some Celtic tunes. I think it's in the blood.
+Passes Through The Fire
Most definitely. The speaking accent I think is what makes the big difference for me (between country musicians and celtic/irish folk musicians)
My wife & I just had the same discussion coming home from hearing Sarah Jarosz tonight. To her "country is just stupid"--but I've been able to convince her that bluegrass =/= country.
+Scott Oakman
:)
folk music: music that's played where yer folks 'r from.
Last year, I'd never heard of Sarah Jarosz. But she was paired with someone on youtube (alison krauss?). Then, I'd never heard of aiofe o'donovan, and then I saw her paired with Sarah Jarosz on youtube. And then until yesterday, I'd never heard of Sarah Watkins, and then yesterday I saw her with Sarah Jarosz and Aiofe.
I wonder who I'll learn about in the next year. Thank goodness for having access to these folks via introduction digitally on youtube, I wouldn't have known about them as soon when the large record companies wanted me to hear whatever they were pushing on pop radio.
+David W Next you will either discover Sierra Hull paired with Sarah Jarosz or Fiona Apple paired with Sara Watkins. ;-)
+David W Yeah man, I had a similar process of discovering each of them. I LOVE this trio - they are so awesome together
+David W Check out Sara Watkins' first project, Nickel Creek, with her brother, dad, and Chris Thiel. So good.
+Jennifer Rummler one of my favorite bands of all time!!
+David W Look for Sometymes Why. :)
so, this probably just changed my life.
***** ck out all of Sarah Jarosz's music.. incredible multi instrumentalist
ThatBanjoGirl I know what you mean! :-)
Yup... It really is that good.
My daily routine. Load UA-cam, listen to this amazing song, sung by angels, and my day has started with a blessing.
Thank you Sara, Sarah and Aoife!!
The musical tension between these three goddesses is so powerful, and yet, it just flows. Thanks ladies!
I've watched and listened to this so many times in 2020. There is so much here. At the 2:10 mark you can see Sara J's little, shy smile as if to say, "this sounds pretty good, this is the take".
Yes- I noticed that as well.
What they were all in the groove, totally in the pocket with with one another .
Sara’s smile was the happy acknowledgment one gets playing beautiful music with ones’s equally talented peers.
How beautifully rendered is this!.
These three sound so perfect together that I'm sitting here listening... speechlessly stunned and amazed. Wow!
Arrangement is everything here! They knew when one would be running out of air, and where the other could pick up, and whose voice would sound best in which spot! Bravo on whoever arranged this!!
I saw and heard Sarah Jarosz for the very first time last night at Garrison Keillor's America the Beautiful tour in Providence, Rhode Island. I am a "folkie" from the 60's, Sang at coffee houses in Boston, Providence and Newport and this amazing young woman has reignited my love of music pure and simple! I love all the women folk singers of the 60's and most recently Allison Kraus, Ricky lee Jones, etc., but this woman's voice, songwriting and musicianship completely blew me away!!! I am buying her cd's and hope she will be appearing locally here in New England soon! Thank you Garrison Keillor. It would have been a downright shame if I died without seeing and hearing this beautiful young woman's voice!
Adele Carlson Get all 3!! Her abilities at 17 will amaze you.
+Adele Carlson Imagine how isolated we feel here in OZ. Maybe she'll come here one day...
Saw this and thought, John's song covered by the ladies
Absolutely beautiful - love the fiddle, banjo compliment each other and the voices in harmony
Knock this out of the park
Brilliant
This is amazing. I hope they do more than a 7" single and one tour. We need a full album from this group!
Anson Burtch well you’ll have your wish on February the 16th
Lightning Strikes and we get to see it.
I am deeply drunk and this song spoke to me, Amen.
So much music coming from just 3 instruments and 3 voices means the heights of musical and soul-searching accomplishment. Thank you so very much, performers, deepest meanings in this performance for me!
Baby's gone and I don't know why
She let out this morning
Like a rusty shot in a hollow sky
She left me without warning
Sooner than the dogs could bark
Faster than the sun rose
Down to the banks in an old mule car
She took a flatboat 'cross the shallows
She left me in my tears to drown
She left a baby daughter
Now the river's wide and deep and brown
She's crossing muddy waters
Tobacco standing in the fields
Be rotten, come November
And a bitter heart will not reveal
A spring that love remembers
When that sweet brown girl of mine
Hair, black eyes are raven
We broke the bread and drank the wine
From a jug that she'd been saving
She left me in my tears to drown
She left a baby daughter
Now the river's wide and deep and brown
She's crossing muddy waters
Baby's crying and the daylight's gone
That big oak tree is groaning
In a rush of wind and a river of song
I can hear my true love moaning
Crying for her baby child
And crying for her husband
And crying for that river wild
To take her from her loved ones
She left me in my tears to drown
She left a baby daughter
Now the river's wide and deep and brown
She's crossing muddy waters
Now the river's wide and deep and brown
She's crossing muddy waters
(John Hiatt - Crossing Muddy Waters)
I think the line is "Hair black as a raven", not "Hair, black eyes are raven". Much appreciate having the lyrics!
reteipdevries th
u
thanks for words
I had to scroll a long ways just to find the lyrics lol
Absolutely LOVE this team up. Wish I could go see them perform and definitely hope there will be a full album.
reddragonready they are touring next spring. I have tickets to see them in April in Houston, Tx.
These three sound BEAUTIFUL together! I just saw them perform at The Red Wing Music festival, and their performance was amazing. I really hope they make this band official and start recording albums together!
I have listened to this song dozens of times since first discovering it a few weeks ago. To me, this is what music is all about. Amazing playing, and heavenly voices. Sheer perfection!
they just released their first orig recorded song together today! Go to one of their FB pages
alright.. heads there immediately
It is heartbreaking when you learn the reason why John Haitt wrote this song.
Memory 16 is default. Do not overwrite. As long as you remember this, life get's easy.
Reading about this terrific "Americana" group... love these girls! Beautiful music. Want more! From wiki: "I'm with Her is a Grammy Award-winning American band consisting of singer-songwriter-multi-instrumentalists Sara Watkins (violin, guitar and ukulele), Sarah Jarosz (banjo, mandolin, octave mandolin and guitar), and Aoife O'Donovan (keyboard and guitar)."

Listen to this often. It just does something to me, every time I hear it. These young ladies have such angelic voices and they blend so well together. I sincerely hope they will always make time to create and perform together. The musical world is a better place with them in it! ❤
This is perfection. Every. Single. Note.
John Hiatt, who wrote this song, is impressed, he completely approves.
I very much prefer John Hiatt's original version. Sure, these ladies are talented, but JH's feeling comes through much stronger.
Mister Lackey I agree! They chose a too fast of a tempo in this version. The beautiful lyrics and melody somehow gets lots because of that. No doubt they are very talented but Hiatts version is superior on so many levels
I'd have to agree, but then I usually always prefer the singer/songwriter's original over a cover. That being said, these ladies still killed it! Absolutely gorgeous vocals and fantastic playing.
So I think I just listened to what the Holy Trinity sounds like😂😂💕
This is classic music in the 21st century! Trio of angelic voices and prefect instrumentals!
Artists become artists after listening to the music that we all love, music from artists they grew up with. And so the art is handed down from generation to generation and never dies. You just have to look for that river bank, and see it’s all flowing where it needs to go. It never dries up.
Very nicely put, Robert!👍
They completely kill this song. Beautiful
My music teacher was talking about how pop artist or "artists" he said were using auto tune ( but I already knew ) so he showed us some people who are REALLY talented and DONT use auto tune and this was one of the videos
Oh hello country music. I just dropped by to tell that they are calling Sam Hunt country and I really think you should get on radio and shut them all up. Thanks,
Country music fan.
Somewhere, after an 'I'm With Her' set on 'Live From Here' Chris Thile cries out 'There's not a better band in the world!' He's got pretty high standards, and I think he's right. Many very good ones; none clearly better. Three exceptional people and music makers; combined, they don't add those gifts - they multiply.
I cannot get enough of this. I have watched this countless times now.
Oh man, this is gorgeous! Harmonies like yours speak to my soul. Happy sigh....
WHEN ARE THESE THREE GOING TO RELEASE AN ALBUM!?!?!?!?! PLEASE TELL ME.
February, 2018. On tour soon.
I'm not sure this will ever be surpassed as my absolute favorite song.
Probably the most painful song I care to put myself through. I lost the woman of my dreams about a year ago, and the line "left me in my tears to drown" is especially relatable.
I'm not really sure why I like this song, all I can do is cry to it, but for whatever reason, I like it, and this rendition is beautiful, capturing all the emotions of the lyrics.
It's ok to grieve bro. It takes a long time to get to a healthy mental state sometimes. Just keep doing your thang. Much love and peace!
@@d3eztrickz Thanks man
Sending love to you and yours, hope you're finding peace
The girl with the glasses has a very very VERY good voice. Don’t get me wrong all 3 of them have excellent voices but the girl with the glasses’ voice is just 🤌 There’s just something very sexy about it, the raspy soulfulness of it.
Sara Watkins. The blonde is Aoife O'Donovan and the one on banjo is Sarah Jarosz. They're all amazing in their own right, and amazing together.
Three very talented young women. They did a beautiful job on this tune.
I adore this performance!
Dear Sarah, Sarah and Aoife I have to tell you, that I fell in love with that song, especially because you sing an play it that way. That's why I want to play it with some friends and I'm looking for the sheet music for the violin. Can you please help me, I wasn't able to find it on the internet. Could you please do me a big big favour? Maybe it's possible to buy it somewhere?
All the best Melanie
An amazing version of a John Hiatt song. You owe it to yourself to listen to the album, Crossing Muddy Waters by John Hiatt !
Just lovely! Myself I play Celtic and Irish Music, but also love beautiful Bluegrass Music like this!
So stirring, beautiful and tight. !! Thankfully with lyrics - almost unintelligible otherwise.
what i really enjoy about that performance besides that "goosebump vocals" is that driving, vivid beat. A lot of versions have that dragging rhythm so it can sound a bit boring not with this one!!!
You should hit up Tony Lane and the Dude Network on UA-cam for dudes and Dudettes , play a song and share some recipes. Love your sound...
This song blew my ears clean off.
I know nothing about bluegrass, or even if this is it. All I know is that this’s great, beautiful music.
Just can't get over how good these girls are together, so amazingly talented!
Girls? Come on!
Pretty awesome.
It all seems so simple.
But I appreciate if it was that easy, we all be doing it.
Bravo maestro's
Their version of this masterpiece never gets old. Incredible talent.
This song never fails to give me those chills
Same. There is something very special about this perdormance.
My faith in New artists restored
This trio is awesome,I can't get enough! Hats off!
Aaaaaaaaaaaah. Such a travel song. Where we travellin' now guys?
I don't understand how there can be 29 dislikes of this.
Probably Justin Bieber fans that came here by mistake.
its over 200..
All you have to understand is that people don't all like the same things. Why do you have a "problem" with the dislikes?
Stunning version of a great John Hiatt song. Great playing.
So just saw Sarah Jarosz tonight...saw Aoife in March...and Sara Watkins is in town in September. Hitting the trifecta...
How do I find a women that appreciates alt - bluegrass or whatever we are calling this genre.
Absolutely amazing. One of my favourite John Hiatt songs by some of my favourite singers.
Heart rending story so well told. Respect to all who have suffered from a loved one's untimely death. Still can't believe my friend is gone.
