Bluegrass music is a genre of American roots music that developed in the 1940s in the United States Appalachian region. The genre derives its name from the band Bill Monroe and the Blue Grass Boys. ... Monroe characterized the genre as: "Scottish bagpipes and ole-time fiddlin'.
@@toadfax7448 So you copied that bit directly from the Wikipedia introductory paragraph and I assume without reading anything else 😂 It's not entirely accurate, especially trying to use it in the sole context you did.
The point I was making is that the Blue in Bluegrass came from the name of the band, not Blues music. Yes...Bluegrass was influenced by the blues (primarily Delta Blues...which I didn't know...thanks for pointing that out), but the roots of that style of music go back a couple of centuries. Before being popularized, Bluegrass was considered folk music. Irish folk music is largely credited as the biggest influence.
This group and chris has been a huge comfort to me over the last year. My wife left me, and the sound of this group gives me the heart felt feeling of the past. God had must have blest chips with that voice. It reaches the heart every time I hear him. 👍👍👍
My mind is blown ! I’ve loved this song for years and just now watching the video do I realize it is NOT Chris Stapleton WOW that singer sounds great I love it !!!!
Greetings baby !!! As our 10th year anniversary rolls around I think of you all the time !! Our children are good and I love you baby !!! BRAD LEE HOUGHTON
Thanks for being in Detroit, Michigan and performing Live on WDET's Acoustic Cafe witn Ann & Rob during the fundraiser. You're appreciated & you guys sound great! May God continue to Bless you guys and gal, keep playing. 👍👃👍🎵☺
Aside from a few, most of their songs seem to reach out and touch an era of my life. I constantly get asked in traffic "Who is that!?" Keep it up, your music has saved me, and y'all have already responded to me personally, I love y'all, purchasing tickets to see y'all in Englewood, CO. Safe travels.
I love these stories lines and all the instruments. You all are so talented. Thanks for a lifetime of memories and Ear Candie's. 2022 live life and love
I thought you were sent from heaven You had me floating on a cloud But tonight my sky is falling And it's a long way down It's a long way down … Now you can't lie, cause girl I caught you You can't deny, you been messing 'round Where you're going there ain't no ice water It's a long way down It's a long way down … So far down that it ain't got a bottom Thought you had wings but I guess you ain't got 'em Fallen angel don't look now Ooooh.it's a long way down … Don't look to me to be your savior Girl we both know where your soul is bound It's headed south just like the love you gave me And it's a long way down It's a long way down … So far down that it ain't got a bottom Thought you had wings but I guess you ain't got 'em Fallen angel don't look now Ooooh.it's a long way down … So far down that it ain't got a bottom Thought you had wings but I guess you ain't got 'em Fallen angel don't look now … So far down that it ain't got a bottom Thought you had wings but I guess you ain't got 'em Fallen angel don't look now … So far down that it ain't got a bottom Thought you had wings but I guess you ain't got 'em Fallen angel don't look now Ooooh.it's a long way down
Beautiful song. Chris Stapleton is irreplaceable but Gary Nichols is great is the best thing that could have happened to Steeldrivers after Stapleton. Love from Pakistan 😍😍😍

Don't know where they filmed this but it takes me back to the South Carolina of my youth where our summers were spent swimming in the creeks and running wild in the woods.
absolutely love this song....wish it was on the cd I had bought....great band...so glad my angels brought me across their path. Would love to see them in person.....I wouldn't be able to sit n watch them...my feet n legs & Spirit wouldn't allow that..!!
I have one bluegrass song called "Out There On The Yard", Jeremy Dean of The Nashville Hit Songwriter Series At The Bluebird, cowrote. Out of everything I have it's the only one that sounds bluegrass. And it Rocks! More than that I lived it. It's about being in prison, and sentenced to die. Jeremy, stayed on me The SteelDrivers cutting the song. Was back when Stapleton was with them. Life..sometimes ya' get caught up, and you're just too busy. By the time I'd gotten around to discussing this further, Chris had left. The Velvet Blue, picked it up and their frontman left. Sometimes ya' just can't win. But, I'd be just as pleased to hear it from this lineup. They Rock! There's a few different videos on here of Jeremy Dean doing "Out There On The Yard"..with intro..without intro. All are good. Ya'll check it out. These guys could tear it up!
He's probably the only person who can sing the songs that chris originally sang. Didn't think it was possible to find a replacement, but they did it. The newer songs are great too
ua-cam.com/video/N_rMCFnUuWM/v-deo.htmlsi=sZG4dnCHPXTsXXHQ Thats breton music. If ever go there, you will understand thé vibe. Thats our little Ireland.
Watched this guy in person in poplar bluff, mo.. sometime in the 2010's... He's got a heavy shadow over him, replacing and all.. but he sounds just as good In person.
Chris Stapleton is now making hits in country music. He's been in the industry for years. He's penned a few number one hits for country artist. You should check him out. He's old school country. He's one of our favorite artist. I really enjoy Gary Nichols with The Steeldrivers. Gary also has a few country music songs that have been released.
Tammy’s harmonies is like that sweet tea that just tops it all off
This is a criminally under-rated song
You said it!
Nailed it!
Even crazier if you know Gary’s story after the Steeldrivers. God bless him.
@@America1779 What story ?
Can't get enough of the SDs!!! The new singer is great. Keep on making that good music!!!
New? Video is 9 years old 😂
@@buddahGump Newer than Chris Stapleton. Sorry it had to be explained to you, genius. 🙄
This is how music is suppose to sound. Great job Gary Nichols, along with every member of The SteelDrivers.
Legit bluegrass vocal power, and fantastic band. Great songwriting. The whole enchilada.
man. this never gets old. so much twang and killer harmonies like at the end there
Wait. What? This is Chris Stapletons old band? Well, learn something new everyday. Such a kick ass band
THERE IS NOTHING THAT GOD AND JESUS COULD TEACH ME TONIGHT BUT THIS.
All that water is no good for the wood but it's all so good for the soul!
❤😊
Loving y'all in Vicksburg Mississippi ❤️🎶🎶🎼🎵❤️
Nichols is so good that I thought he was a younger Stapleton. I love this!
People are always comparing one artist or singer to another. Music is music, appreciate it for what it is. This is gold
Everyone has different ears , everyone has different hears .
Omg this is amazing and the singer is just unbelievable
Once this song gets in my head, it never leaves
I'm so glad I found The SteelDrivers ❤️. I share y'all's music all over the place
Bluegrass meets Country meets Soul meets Blues...nicely done!
i like this kind of music. I might have been a southern boy in my previous life.
Bluegrass is already the meeting of country and blues music 😂 hence the term

As a music fan and maker I love this from the first riff! Groove is sweet, and when that first vocal kicked in I was sent through the roof! Props!
Reminds me of Jimmy Buffett. Fantastic music Rhett. Absolutely floored by the amount of talent you and the whole mythical team possess.
This group and chris has been a huge comfort to me over the last year. My wife left me, and the sound of this group gives me the heart felt feeling of the past. God had must have blest chips with that voice. It reaches the heart every time I hear him. 👍👍👍
Shawn Finley sorry your wife left..but she’s probably the loser..better times coming if you let them in...🇨🇦🇨🇦
Sorry bro...There's someone else out there who won't mind the things she didn't like. Chin up CHAMP! On to the next one!
Life is about change, embrace it and try to enjoy the new view from where you stand.

Every one of em...kick sphincter....one of my favorite groups...kinda bluegrass rock or something...

Can't be done !
Gary is from Muscle Shoals, Al. A wonderful accomplished artist, I'm glad the Steeldrivers chose him when Chris went solo.
Love the use of the banjo, in their songs and the soul...this is a band where I'm where have they been my whole life😂
Just learned about this group today. I’m a follower now. Fabulous band
Grabbed my soul from the first chord.... definitely making a playlist....

I thought you were sent from heaven
You had me floating on a cloud
But tonight my sky is falling
And it's a long way down
It's a long way down
… Now you can't lie, cause girl I caught you
You can't deny, you been messing 'round
Where you're going there ain't no ice water
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
… So far down that it ain't got a bottom
Thought you had wings but I guess you ain't got 'em
Fallen angel don't look now
Ooooh.it's a long way down
… Don't look to me to be your savior
Girl we both know where your soul is bound
It's headed south just like the love you gave me
And it's a long way down
It's a long way down

that is chris' voice, lol
no one gave Gary any credit for being his on singer / replacing chris and also being a mean mother effer on the 6 string. something chris was not.
@@anekretia nope it's Gary Nichols
I can really get down to this one guys! Great job!
Música de excelente qualidade! Saudações do Brasil.🥰❤
The singer now is just like Chris Stapleton never left
Holy crap you guys are awesome!!!!!!!

@garynichols. I don't usually go all fan girl especially for country but you guys have the gritty blues I love. Keep bringing your music to us
