Here's the deal: we've all been to shows full of superstars. At the end, they all get up on stage, and play some random fiddle tune or three-chord standard. It's mostly chaos, but it gives everybody a chance to take a picture that has all of their heroes on the stage at once. This is nothing like that (I know - I was at the shows on the 5th and 6th). This was carefully and lovingly arranged and choreographed. The songs they played are not trivial, and they all had to go learn the tunes and their parts. Then they came out and played as an acoustic Americana orchestra. If you have a chance to see this tour before it's over, run don't walk to get a ticket. You will leave the show changed, for the better.
Amen brother. Of the utmost finest musicianship. Sarah noted at one point earlier in this show, reflecting upon the isolating experience of the pandemic, and the relatively isolating experience of being on tour; however with the three class shop they were rolling, they had created a new family, experimenting and sharing the joys and the laments of life on the road together. This tour leg closer exemplifies the bond they created, amidst their innate and incredible musical abilities. So long as I can, I will seek out moments such as these. Big thanks to the artists, for their gusto in getting up there in front of everyone, and laying bare their rhythmic soul.
We saw them on the first night of this tour at the Kettlehouse Amphitheater in Bonner, Montana...no words to describe the talent, the pure joy of the performance. Wow!
I attended this show and the energy and joy of the performance was inspiring. It confirmed what we used to know, music can bridge the gaps and bring people together.
i didn't even know that some of these people knew one another. not shocked to discover that they do. I have to guess they looked forward to playing together, fo sho.
I was at this show . It was so welll put together. I got some of this show recorded on my phone.thanx for these videos. They just add more joy and memories of a great night
I guess it goes both ways - kind of get up and watch enthusiasm. But by the same token by sitting everyone gets an opportunity to see the musicians play and soak in their talent. No lip sinking or recordings being played here. Kind of like a Carnegie Hall performance I guess. just sit and watch and be amazed.
Wildfire. So say it's an incredibly powerful composition is really kinda lazy. It's that song that needs to be played and played ad nauseum and everywhere. Life is quite encouraging of late, with the haters getting louder and louder. That's because there's less and less of them as they gently fall victim to attrition. Ya know, we're getting close. The next big thing will be to get just one of the top 1% of the top 1% to become benevolent. It CAN happen.
Nathaniel Smith. He's been working with Sarah Jarosz since they were so young. :) She calls him Old Smitty.. She wrote this for him... ua-cam.com/video/csTNxm5DHTM/v-deo.html
@@sharonmickey4566 it's been a few years since Nat played regularly with Sarah. He's been playing with Watchhouse for the past year, give or take a bit of time. Always nice to hear him play.
I used to listen to punch brothers quite a lot and watchhouse are just amazing. What a awesome colab. Shame I'm halfway across the world in the UK or I would be at ever show. I really love watchhouse, they're such a beautiful and talented couple.
What a phenomenal show! I just wish that whoever was shouting into the camera's microphone, and by proxy, my right ear would just learn some basic self control. The whole hall is quiet, enjoying the show and this one guy hollering and yelping
@@karenputnam9301 People could enjoy things in silence, I’d hope. Of course I’m thankful to OP for filming, even if that’s them hollering, or I wouldn’t have seen this.
I love that they did Where the soul of man never dies--but it strikes me that none of them are actually anywhere near professing Christ. It is saddening, especially in light of Tony Rice being (in my estimation) where the soul of man never dies. I love this song though
''But now bring me a minstrel. And it came to pass, when the minstrel played, that the hand of the Lord came upon him.'' " 2 Kings 3:15 That minstrel was presumably not professing Christ either.

@@pamelamurnion2076 Lucky girl. I love Sarah... been following her since she was at Wimberley HS... xo SOOOO much talent!
I'd imagine it took relatively little time to choreograph and they loved every minute of it
I attended this show and the energy and joy of the performance was inspiring. It confirmed what we used to know, music can bridge the gaps and bring people together.
Me too. It was fabulous. Best live performances I've attended in a long time.
Goose flesh. The whole time. Even watching this recording. I'm buzzing with pheromones or whatever they are. This is so absolutely gorgeous....
Amazing show and venue! I flew 2000 miles each way to see it!
00:00 - Elzic's Farewell
03:00 - Can't Be Sure
06:00 - Wildfire
12:18 - Where The Soul of a Man Never Dies
sorry, Wildfire actually starts at 06:20
Holy shit. How's this for putting a bunch of your favorite musicians on one stage together? Damn. Only wish i could have been there live. Amazing
i didn't even know that some of these people knew one another. not shocked to discover that they do. I have to guess they looked forward to playing together, fo sho.
I love the Sundays, such an underrated band. And I love that Jarosz loves them too. What a great call back!
Sundays + these players = pure gold.
The Sundays! Brilliant group gone way to soon….
The best part!
your excitement during wildfire is giving me life
maybe art can heal. it seems damn near nothing else has.
I was at this show . It was so welll put together. I got some of this show recorded on my phone.thanx for these videos. They just add more joy and memories of a great night
I love how Emily from Watchhouse is smiling the whole time.
Those 3 mandolins at once.. WOW~~ Thanks for posting....
Three of the most accomplished mandolin players on the face of the Earth IMHO! They crushed it!
Good morning, what a joy to hear such fine musicians play. It seems they enjoyed it too. Thanks
Amazing and inspiring collaboration.
Love Andrew Marlin's voice
There's something compelling about it
You have to listen
I can't believe people were sitting down during all of this.

You can not tell me that is not the best recording of wildfire ever.

Thanks for posting! Isn’t it Watch House not Watch Tower?
Oops… I still think of them as Mandolin Orange! Having trouble wrapping my brain around the new name apparently 😂
It doesn’t seem enough to merely like this video. This was amazing! I would have loved to have been there. Thanks for the capture! ❤️
@@geokills Very nice recording! Thank you for sharing it.
Awesome! Looks like they're having fun - what a difference a few days on tour makes. Gonna see them next week! Thanks for posting this.
Can anyone put together a playlist for this?
Elzic's Farewell (Traditional) > Can't Be Sure (The Sundays) > Wildfire (Watchhouse) > Where the Soul of Man Never Dies (Tony Rice and Ricky Skaggs)
As a cellist, I love the cello in the band, good stuff and great musicians
Nathaniel Smith. He's been working with Sarah Jarosz since they were so young. :) She calls him Old Smitty.. She wrote this for him... ua-cam.com/video/csTNxm5DHTM/v-deo.html
Who is the cellist?
@@Bob_Morrow Old Smitty... Nat Smith.. Sarah's been playing with for years...
@@sharonmickey4566 - Thank You!
@@sharonmickey4566 it's been a few years since Nat played regularly with Sarah. He's been playing with Watchhouse for the past year, give or take a bit of time. Always nice to hear him play.
Yep! That gets me real good 👍
2:14 Just noticed Thile completely digging the cello/bass arco bit.
Besides being exquisitely talented, may I nominate Emily as an All-American Girl, and all-round delightful person?
no
@@micahmcneil9674 Incel!
Texture. Subtlety. Arrangement. Refreshing. Thank you.
Yeah it is Watchhouse
who is the guitar player with the slick solo on Wildfire?
Where is Pickles at with the bass voice?
Look at 2:15 as Paul Kowert gets into the fun. That gorgeous growl he gets from his instrument is just butter.
Now that's an eargasim! Two of my favs... So talented.
Who is the girl on fiddle
I hear Randy Travis in the vocals of the guy singing Wild Fires.
Big time

A show stopper! Big Jam.

I think it's called enthusiasm and joy. I appreciate him filming the performance. 😁
