I had the privilege of seeing Mandolin Orange live a few nights back. They have a strong connection which you can witness on the video. They have wonderful voices and play beautiful songs.
Just discovered 'Mandolin Orange'. What a wonderful revelation to have come across something so clarifying. Sweet sound and their playing is 'exemplar'
Quite a few of their tunes have a melancholy lilt to them, and if you're feeling a bit sad, they'll surely provide some comfort. I'm not sad as I listen to a mix of their material here on UA-cam, but their songs comfort me anyway. Today, March 2022, we live in a nation where "I need to hate my neighbor" is a popular thing. It's music like this that gets me through bullshit like that.
Unbelievable. Found this (and all their performances) recently on UA-cam. This song in particular reminds me of Long Black Veil originally from Johnny Cash, and later redone by others including Dave Matthews Band. Haunting and honest with tragedy. There is nothing like great story telling through song.
I hope you'll consider performing in Kansas City. Call Frank at Knuckleheads; he has a great venue. I'll be seeing Greg Brown there next month; hope to see you both there someday, too!
In my humble opinion this is by far e best version - cleaner, more acoustic than on the album. They always give the impression that the vocals are kinds "half-hearted", but they work perfectly - especially for this very well crafted song - simply storyline: - man loses woman, goes out to get drunk, but - so much more in the detail. I've been a "kinda" mandolin player for many years although as I work with a mando player, I don't get much chance to play mine anymore, but Andrew Marlin's style actually taught me stuff about about double stopping etc. Thank you for the music you two! When are you coming to the UK?
I find reactions to Emily interesting. Objectively speaking she is not a great beauty. But the whole is larger than the sum of its parts here. Somehow she conveys the sense she is totally devoted to pleasing her audience, and that sense makes her even more appealing than she already is. And she makes a perfect match for Andrew, who is one of the most comfortable and attractive singers in folk music. What a pair!
Smooth as it gets. Thank goodness young folks like these, are keeping acoustic music alive.
True

Willie should cover this.
Officially on my bucket list. Get a bit closer to KCMO. Knuckleheads?
They're playing in Fayetteville/Little Rock area soon. I'm still thinking about it, but running out of time
What a beauty.... I mean the unbearded one.
Seriously.. she is so beautiful and so talented. Dream girl Emily Frantz
Wish I could like, do multiple likes on songs... to signify the level of the like. Cause I'd give this one a few.
Looks like both instruments had a few of the upper frets pulled and the fingerboards scooped. Never noticed before.
wildly entertaining
Could someone tell me what guitar Emily is playing?
It is a guitar Andrew built

On the bright side, it's better than no ring at all
Hello
probably want to correct the "about" info at some stage :p
A
Superb song.
I think their name change is the stupidest move ever. They did not ask me my opinion but I have to post my two cents.
so if ya play music ya stop getting a hair cut
