I've lived a lot of it, seen others through the rest. Their music touches our souls and says volumes love, life, huge falls from grace many of us experienced through our journeys, forgiveness and redemption.
You can tell these guy's chops were developed over many years of playing and touring. This kind of band is rare these days....what a treat and blessing.
Listen, I live in Maine and these guys should be famous by now!!! I just bought all their cd's online and burn music for all my friends!!! Why they arent on the radio worldwide is beyond me!!! Awesome band, keep playing great music, loyal listener right here!!!
yeah I"m still holdin on But there ain"t much of left of me!! after having a stroke but I've managed to play my guitars again and these guys are my insperation to do so
+Billy Sharp it's amazing how we can all fit this song into one of our life experiences somehow. congrats on playing guitar again btw, I can not imagine how hard it must be to not be able to play my guitars.
OMG, me too!!! One in 2001 & I wasn't able to play for 8 years but never quit trying. Then a second in 2015 & I was determined after going to two BBS concerts that I would play again. And I do!
Blackberry Smoke does nothing but ROCK BABY!!! Where have I been just months ago finding out about them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank GOD I HAVE AWOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad that Blackberry Smoke came along with the kind of music that moves me in way that I haven't known since the real Skynyrd went down in flames. This is my theme song. It's where I am in life now. Danced with the devil till I met death, barely held together by a few old threads and there ain't much left of me. It's been one helluva ride!
Good old southern rock. Like marshal Tucker band, Lynyrd Skynyrd ,Allman bros band, 38 special. The style still lives on with Blackberry Smoke. Talent and song writing skills all rolled into one. Charlie Star ‘s voice is very unique and crisp. Thanks BS for bringing southern rock back. 👍
Can't thank you enough. Enjoyed all the comments as well. 67 and getting ready to roll one and enjoy the day, the outstanding BBS. By the way, this song is the lyrics of my life.All Gooood!
And thank you for that photo with your arm around me. I can’t believe how incredibly tall you are and by the way I’d like to thank whoever was in the crowd for the acid. It really woke me up raw. That’s Egyptian for raw.
Black Berry Smoke I LOVE YOU GUYS you guys are so awsome I listen to you every day when I found you on u tube fist song I heard lesson in a bottle made the hair on my neck stand straight up alot you songs dam you guys been around for a long time I never heard of you before and it's like wow u tube thanks
Still remember this first time eye was there with the Smoke knew They knew, great Time..... still here, still holding õN.....and that bottom is something else....... Roc&Rolllll...
Got into them earlier this year, wonderful! It's a taste of the crowes, black that is, a bit of Drivin and Cryin, some skynard and the dead all coming out in a sweet new wonderful southern style, Keep Rocking BB smoke!
Too sweet saw BB Smoke on tour with Eric Church, my son and I met the bass player great personable dude my son still talks about that. ROCKIN', ROCKIN' band
Reminds me of The Black Crowes, glad to to see someone has appreciation for good some rock 'n' roll with some soul. Wish the Crowes would come off hiatus.
Somebody wrote sum rocking tunes for these old boys. Just pray he dont come looking for your lost souls. Rumor has it coming to a town close to you. It's all fun and games till well you know the rest of it.
WOW - haven't we all felt this way at one time or two in ours lives?? Everything seems to be going in the wrong direction! But we need to find a way back to happiness and sanity.... Sure helps to have a special someone to bring us back to where we want to be....
First time listener. Saw their pic in 2mo.old notice in Louisville paper about a gig (2 mos ago, hahaha) came looking on UA-cam. These guys are the real deal. So THIS is where Southern Rock ran off to! Your newest fan wishes you great success.
Blackberry Smoke reminds me of the Allman brothers, The Doobie brothers, Alabama, with some, Hank Jr, Waylen Jennings,and Charlie Daniels thrown in!!! Nice sound !! From a guy who loves country, and rock and roll! I love the fancy telly guitar!! cool man!!
A bandmate of mine has just introduced me to these fellers, i by god like em, no bs, no fronts, not claiming to be the next movement or the inventors of a new sound, nope, just a dam good throw-back band with some great new songs!!-- i by god like em!!!!
...WOW... warpaintent, here's to ya ! Thanks ! Only way to see or hear it better is to be standing there, I was last Sat. at the Shed and they played it like this, thanks again for the fix.
they r all cool as hell and down to earth i got the chance to meet them at Bama Jam and they remind me so much of Lynard Skynard it is nice to have that great southern rock style sound back finally
I don't like country or southern rock all that much, but these guys are different. They have something special. I'll be seeing them live for the fourth time in a couple of weeks out in Syracuse. Can't wait!
I see these guys every time they get close!!! My favorite band by far!! Just seen them last week in Springfield ILL and the week before in St Louis. These guys hit home!!! Best ever!

I just recently discovered Blackberry Smoke. What happened with Billy Sharp?
Willie Nelson
OMG, me too!!! One in 2001 & I wasn't able to play for 8 years but never quit trying. Then a second in 2015 & I was determined after going to two BBS concerts that I would play again. And I do!
Tell me how you managed to play again. I had a stroke back in 2017 and haven't moved my left arm and hand since.
