There are a few versions of this song on Spotify, but none of them come close to this one. I’ve seen that you’ve put up some of the performances on Spotify. Is it your goal to put them all on there? I guess that some artists might have opinions, but so many of the songs on your channel are the best versions. Thank you for your hard work.
But she isn't because she also is recorded. And who knows what kind of setup they used. So, yes, great voice, but the technic could also be part of the tone! ;-)
Nice hear a real voice for a change. Seems like way too many modern vocalists use autotune. Autotune itself isn't bad but too many artists overuse Autotune making it sound like autotune on steroids which makes these vocalists sound way too robotic and therefore since they sound way too robotic they sound way too similar to each other. Sierra Ferrell's voice is such a welcome and refreshing voice when compared to so many mainstream artists since so many of today's artists which includes country but especially pop music is autotune on steroids.
@@britmckee4224, Ask Jamie Johnson. Even movies were only in black and white when I first watched them as a little kid. Later, when I got my first camera, color film and developing was way too expensive to use, so I only took b&w photos for a long time. When the cost came down (and my income went up) I was so happy to switch from b&w to color, and didn't place much value on all those old photos I had taken. Glad I did not throw them out, 'cause they captured some good moments. You should've seen them in color.
@@Aaackermann I’ve met her in person and heard her sing. She showed me how to play the intro to In Dreams and sang while doing so. She sounds like that without mics
Yeah she really controls her rolls you can barley tell she’s switched notes. Almost reminds me of how Joni Mitchell did it but still so unique it’s her own.
As amazing as Sierra is, you can't gloss over how great Nate is on the fiddle. For the folks that didn't grow up with the guitar + fiddle combo, welcome to the promised land.
Surely im not the only one who keeps replaying the part when she sings "until one day, another lover comes my way till then i'll go to green river all alone"
This is where it began about 16 months ago just by chance. I've not been the same musically since, she's simply off the scale. The most most beautiful, heartbreaking and heartmending voice i've ever heard. Thank you Sierra, come back to England soon.
Literally just found this song right now, what a tune, and now I'm excited because I get to check out the rest of her music for the first time. It's good you're saying she's performed in England before, maybe I'll go see her if she comes back.
@@Kunningstunts I've posted 5 tracks from London and one from Oxford, i think the tour very nearly sold out. She's a special one musically and very approachable to fans.
I think I'm on the same time line as you. Woah- I've been hooked and can't say enough about this ruby-red voiced wonder that can pick a guitar and write a hook as good as the greats. And then I saw her and the current quartet live. Floored. Excited to check out your London tracks. Cheers friend!
It's funny how these days, playing country music that doesn't suck is like the new "rebel." All these great artists are all tattooed up, haha. This is awesome
All the punk/hardcore kids grew up a bit, went through a lot of real shit, channeled their passion into another genre that supports authenticity just as much as punk scenes do. Both genres almost regulate themselves in the sense that the audience can tell who is “real” or not because everyone is obviously tired of the plastic world we’ve been fed our entire lives. Just my two cents
As with most acquired tastes; first there's fascination, then there's appreciation and finally it's adoration. This is one of the most 'authentic' artists, I have ever heard.
so well put. i am at the adoration stage. a late comer with here, maybe last 2 years or three. saw her a few days ago in hollywood. omg,. a dream come true. her, the band. and john c reilly were incredible. her style. before her i had a lot of the dresses. love of flowers. i have a lot of tattoos mostly of flowers.. because of her i got the septum piercing. next week planning on getting her name inked on my forearm in the style on her new album. yeah, i think adoration sums it up. so fortunate to have seen her. 72 years old. pray to see her again. i bet she would have loved to collaborate with graham parsons. adding her to the flying burrito brothers would have been magic
Anyone who thinks music is dead isn't looking hard enough. I'm constantly in awe of the musicians I find out about on a regular basis. Sierra is just great.
I don't even concern myself with any thumbs down. I know good music when I hear it, and this is it. Totally irrelevant what anyone else thinks. I don't know why so many people are obsessed with the number of thumbs down...
It's odd, there's this constant low level use of the word "hipster" in the comment section of Sierra's videos. Even here. Clearly people who don't know anything about her feel like they can make themselves look savvy by "calling her out" as inauthentic or whatever
If it sounds good, it is good. Who said that? Anyway this sounds better than good. The people who give thumbs down are the same people you don't want to sit next to on a plane.
There she is mink hat, yellow rose behind her ear, sleeveless summer dress and tatted all down her arms. She played the guitar and sang. Through her voice I heard the ancestors singing. Wow just wow.
Can you recommend some good old country records that fall into this kind of genre? I was raised on Classic rock, metal, and punk and just now getting into country. I kind of don’t know where to start. I know Hank, Willie Nelson, Waylon, and Cash, but none of that even really fits into this “cowpoke” sort of sound. Marty Robbins has it, but who else? I love it and I just don’t know where to go.
@@bl00df4rt I’m also trying to listen to more country after many years of metal, grunge, and punk. I personally like Billie Joe Shaver and Slim Whitman (if you’ve watched Mars Attacks!, you’ll recognize his song “Indian Love Call”.) I hope we can find more good sounds.
I went to interwebs a few days ago. One thing led to another, and I found Sierra Ferrell. Goodness. I've been listening to her over and over. I haven't been this excited by a new artist in 40 years.
The last thousand or so views were all me, why I just put it on loop kept it going. If I gotta have a voice stuck in my head, thats a right nice voice, and If I needed a rhythm to step to, well reckon this 'll be the one. Thanks you two for the tune.
Love love love. Being a WV resident and a lover of old time music I rejoiced to stumble upon Sierras original, organic and fresh music. A true gem. Keep them coming....
This channel is the gift that keeps on giving. My grandpa is the reason why I fell in love with old music and big part of who I am today, when I discovered this channel I first found Nick Shoulders’ ‘Rather Low’ song and now I’ve found more music that’s new but keeps true to its roots. It’ll be a sad day when he’s gone, and even thinking about it makes me cry a little. Thank you western AF.

@@bl00df4rt Townes van Zandt, blaze foley, JOHN PRINE, Steve young, Loud Wainwright III has a few songs very similar to her... I’d start a station or radio with some of those guys. Folky-country but still have the fiddle, banjo etc. while maintaining that sad sound. Sorry, I eavesdropped hahahaha
Even never having seen Sierra Ferrell live, the more videos I see of her, the more I can see how talented she is: Singing, writing, playing, dancing. So good!
Sierra has such guts and love for music she busked. You gotta be dedicated and have the heart of hearts to do that! Folks like her inspire me to write my own soundtrack to life.
Tomorrow makes 27 yrs since Ernie Carpenter from Sutton ,WV passed. Good job Sierra keeping his heart felt passion for his home going. Losing his home to the Sutton Dam project had to be rough for him.
One of the best voices i have ever heard. I remember being a young one hearing music like this playing from my grandparents radio. Such a breath of fresh air.
Jesus Christ her voice is like heaven like I just want to stop everything to listen to her sing everyday and I was listening to the grunge band green river
Been a long time since I've been so impressed. I'm an old fart and haven't heard this woman until now. Just when I think I've heard it all, she surprised me. I could die happy with her singing!
Oh boy. I’m in love with humans. So happy to be a part of this universe and get to hear you beautiful people. Thank you to everyone involved in making this video and bringing it to my ears. Love. Baba Bear

I agree, Peter. I grew up on this music in southern West Virginia. She’s awesome
Well said Peter, it's wild how original and traditional her sound is.
Are you related to Hat Mcculloch?
@@spacewrangler701 No.I will let you in on a little secret.I am an Australian.

Her and colter wall in a duet would be beautiful to listen to...
Holy shit that would be fun

right! we need more!
just pre ordered her first album, my biggest problem now is that this isn't on it.
loop
I totally agree
Yup.
I am truly fasinated.
It's funny how these days, playing country music that doesn't suck is like the new "rebel." All these great artists are all tattooed up, haha. This is awesome
Country music was saved by people with tattoos, pierced septums, and stretched ears.
All the punk/hardcore kids grew up a bit, went through a lot of real shit, channeled their passion into another genre that supports authenticity just as much as punk scenes do. Both genres almost regulate themselves in the sense that the audience can tell who is “real” or not because everyone is obviously tired of the plastic world we’ve been fed our entire lives. Just my two cents
Hahaha such a cool phenomenon for sure! Mohawk and tattoo having punk kid turned into a folk and bluegrass loving hick checking in
Yeah. This is how good music can be when you don't make it just to sell records (sorry, downloads).
punk is dead so we're singing God's beautiful music instead.
As with most acquired tastes; first there's fascination, then there's appreciation and finally it's adoration.

I love how she's old- timey. Her voice resonates in my Appalachian soul ❤ also, love the fiddle here 😁
Starting to fall in love with this new wave of country music. It’s almost as powerful and sweet as traditional Irish music ! ;)
This new wave was the original wave, Irish immigrant roots included, before Nashville and the industry took over country.
@@hovazane4091 over the last decade there’s been a pretty strong come back of this and the 70/80s outlaw style.
Punk isn't dead, it turned into folk.
American folk/bluegrass has roots in a mix of Irish and African folk music, among others
Agreed this definitely has Irish folk nuances all hail the new wave
Anyone who thinks music is dead isn't looking hard enough. I'm constantly in awe of the musicians I find out about on a regular basis. Sierra is just great.
A whiskey soda & Sierra Ferrell's voice and I'm feeling perfectly content after work
