When you see the smiles on the faces of the big guns of previous generations as they play alongside the likes of Molly, Billy, and Sierra you know everything you need to know about how talented they are. If only Tony Rice and Jerry Garcia were still with us
Billy strings is one of the best I've ever seen but Bella is one of the best on a mandolin she can play better than Marty stuart. I just love bluegrass music!!
This literally brought me to tears, seeing and hearing BS pay homage to the Jimmy Martin, the King of Bluegrass. Also, Molly and Sierra singing. I am moved, thank you for sharing.
So true, great vocals...I was blessed to be there...great performances by all who played and sung...big thanks to Bela for making it all happen...an Allstars cast of talented folks for sure.
@@garypaquin9571 so who cares, Molly is fantastically talented and has been playing bluegrass since 7 yrs old. Politics shouldn't even factor in unless you're insanely jealous and lacking any musical ability.
But at this point in time He Is The Star that shines brightest...They are all just cream of the crop and worthy of your praise and mine! @@wandamundy1759
EVERY time I'm with friends and see/hear him, I make this same comment....Billy's voice is over-shadowed by his "next level," insane picking talent and showmanship. The boy has some SERIOUS pipes! An extremely special talent!
Wow! What a lineup Sierra, Molly and Billy, fantastic, I’m old enough to be they’s Grandfather. Still love me , Bluegrass. Thankyou UA-cam, keeps me going.
Wow! I’m old-school ,I’ve seen all the greats in person since I was a child. These young people are absolutely phenomenal! They’re rendition of the song,”Tennessee”, would make the great Jimmy Martin proud. What a blessing to have these young people to carry on the great tradition, of Bluegrass, and old-time music.
The kids I started following 10 years ago on U-Tube have scaled the mountain. They are the new royalty of traditional music and do their elders proud. Sierra and Molly could sing with Patsy and Loretta. Plus they are instrumental virtuosos. Play on and on!!!
My friend mentioned Molly Tuttle for new music when i told him i needed to hear something new, i just love this, bluegrass with class, classic Austin City Limits treats for us bluegrass afficianadoes, it's fabulous, soothing and stimulating, moving, thankyou, this is my new music, country at its best! T. Leckner, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Billie Strings, very much worthy of a Grammy, all these musicians are just quintessential American bluegrass, it's in their blood, T Leckner, Montreal, Canada
❤❤ wow, this is the greatest set of folks on one stage ever!! How beautiful! I live in the Appalachian mountains, surrounded by so much musical talent here. Saw Molly and Bela in Boone. Saw Sierra in Bristol. Saw Billy in Winston-Salem for the Doc show and saw him in Asheville.
I've always been a Bella fan since the beginning ! And throw in my little brother Billy Strings ! O ya doesn't get any better than that !! My goal is to see you both in concert in 2022 !! Love you all !
Epic! Historical! They're just jamming, but they all trust each other like family. The teamwork is obvious to the viewer, but if you close your eyes, you can hear it as well.
I'm sure there's a reason for it I'm not a musician but I think it's so cool how in sink the two fiddle players are with the exact opposite on their push pull it sounds really cool
I attended BF-MBH in Charlotte last night! So much better than even my high expectations! I love all of the extras & I see the power of this performance, but, the core 6 (this iteration: Bela, Brian, Justin, Sierra, Mark & Stuart) handled all of the duties here at this show @ the end of their tour. Theater quality acoustics & the leanness of brevity in lineup, added up to a version of this tune which burned every bit as bright! Sutton! Cheese Balls in Cow Town! Polka On The Banjo! A stunning surprise. Thank you Bela for your brand of bluegrass greatness,
I was there, and after the Standing Ovation Billy told the crowd “Running on Empty” was one of the best songs ever written .. he really is a huge Jackson Browne admirer.
Sierra's been one of our favorite mandolin players (she kills a guitar as well) since she was a teenager but her vocals have improved steadily and her singing confidence has grown to the point the voice is equal to her playing. She's one of our favorite female musicians. And Molly...what else can you say. Unbelievable voice and guitar. Their voices really work together. Billy's been at the top of our playlist since before Covid. Took a huge talent to knock off Samantha Fish. LOL. What talent on that stage. Some of the best musicians in Nashville (or the planet for that matter) of the last 50 years. For fun search for a clip of Sam Bush and Sierra as a 10 year old, maybe 12, playing together on the Woodsongs Old Time Radio Hour, a weekly show from Lexington, Ky. featuring a wide range of music. Sierra was a young guest in the audience and Sam was her hero. Sam, being the wonderful human being he is, invited her to play a tune with him. Here they are together maybe 10 years later making incredible music together.
We just saw Bela and Company in Wilmington, DE. What a wonderful night of bluegrass. And absolute master class in musicianship. I have never been to a Bela Fleck concert that wasn't great and I've seen him with an orchestra, with his wife, with the Flecktones and now back to his bluegrass roots.
The answer is, of course, Bela Fleck. One of the greatest musical talents ever; he asks you to come play, what an honor. I saw this group live at Freshgrass and I was blown away. It broought back memories of Bela, Sam, Jerry, Tony and Mark playing together. This generation has their own stars, but it's nice to see the overlap. Brian Sutton took over for Tony, but Billy might be the best yet. My life has had an awesome soundtrack.
Bluegrass her and Billy strings are amazing young artists along with their respective bands. Very talented worth going down the rabbit hole and give them a listen.
Thank you guys for doing a tribute to Jimmy Martin. Jimmy was and still is my all time favorite in bluegrass music. Billy's singing and all the rest was awesome, loved it
I second that, no doubt brought me to tears, I kept turning up the volume. You can't get much better than Molly and Sierra. Don't know if it would ever happen but I would love to hear Sierra Ferrell sing with them.
Dont forget to look up more of Billy Strings. And another tip....find AJ Lee - Blue Summit. AJ/Aissa played years with Molly and the Tuttles. Here is AJ around 13 yrs old. ua-cam.com/video/yXBXlJYKTNI/v-deo.html
Anyone who's heard Michael Cleveland and Jerry Douglas knows there are some names missing here. (more than I mention) What an amazing array of the most amazing talents on the planet here.
Isn’t that Michael Cleveland up there on the stage? well just in case Jerry is busy you could grab Anders Beck, the powerhouse Dobro player with Greensky Bluegrass?!
Justin Moses, one of the most gifted and under-recognized talents in contemporary bluegrass (and Sierra’s husband), plays fiddle with Michael Cleveland on the first tune and then picks up a Dobro which he modestly plays behind Jerry Douglas on the second tune. He is a virtuoso on *all* bluegrass instruments, and has been at least IBMA Dobro player of the year; maybe other awards like that. In both tunes, Justin stands at the far end of the group, mostly out of camera range. He’s the only person on that stage who could play those tunes all by himself by overdubbing, because he can play every instrument as well as anybody else. He sings, but not like Sierra and Molly and Billy Strings.
Not bad, if I do say so myself. PSYCH!!! The music made from that powerhouse band and those energetic vocals has left me speechless, tingling and in goosebumps!!
That's a lot of talent on one stage, holy shit.
Yepper!!
Love the fact that "Real Music" will never die
Bluegrass is safe for another generation with these two.
These four
When you see the smiles on the faces of the big guns of previous generations as they play alongside the likes of Molly, Billy, and Sierra you know everything you need to know about how talented they are. If only Tony Rice and Jerry Garcia were still with us
Amen to that my friend Tony was and forever be my picking hero he changed my life God bless my freind
Billy strings is one of the best I've ever seen but Bella is one of the best on a mandolin she can play better than Marty stuart. I just love bluegrass music!!
@@donnielarge32
Uhh, BELA Fleck plays banjo 🪕
@@michaelkenna2024 I think he meant Sierra
The level of talent on that stage is just ridiculous
This literally brought me to tears, seeing and hearing BS pay homage to the Jimmy Martin, the King of Bluegrass. Also, Molly and Sierra singing. I am moved, thank you for sharing.
Amen!
Same here dude. The sheer joy on the faces of everybody playing.
I'm wiping tears as I read your comment! Beautiful song, so touching. ❤
So true, great vocals...I was blessed to be there...great performances by all who played and sung...big thanks to Bela for making it all happen...an Allstars cast of talented folks for sure.
Yep, that's a whole lot of talent on one stage.
What a priviledge it is to live during this time and hear and see these gems!
The boy from Michigan so at home among these luminaries...and Molly & Sierra rightly getting the respect they deserve.
Molly performing with the big names and rightly so! So pretty, so talented!
She IS one of the big names!
@@v2807 now, yup!👍
Been following her for 10 yrs.
Tuttles with AJ Lee videos.
O
@@garypaquin9571 so who cares, Molly is fantastically talented and has been playing bluegrass since 7 yrs old. Politics shouldn't even factor in unless you're insanely jealous and lacking any musical ability.
@@garypaquin9571 I didn't realize to be "hardcore bluegrass" you had to be "conservative only." Gate keeping as usual.
Ridiculous amount of talent on that stage
And Michael Cleveland sawin' the fiddle! Superb.
Molly and Sierra - two of my faves!
Bela Fleck throws the best parties on stage!! What an insane lineup! Thanks for posting Tobbias.
Billy walks out and as good as everyone else is, you can tell he’s the star.
Disagree - Bella, Molly and Sierra play just as fast when the song requires it. But - he lacks subtlety - which the other three have in spades.
But at this point in time He Is The Star that shines brightest...They are all just cream of the crop and worthy of your praise and mine! @@wandamundy1759
Bluegrass is safe for generations to come!
Billys singing is right there with his playing.! Bluegrass voice.
EVERY time I'm with friends and see/hear him, I make this same comment....Billy's voice is over-shadowed by his "next level," insane picking talent and showmanship. The boy has some SERIOUS pipes! An extremely special talent!
Wow! What a lineup Sierra, Molly and Billy, fantastic, I’m old enough to be they’s Grandfather. Still love me , Bluegrass. Thankyou UA-cam, keeps me going.
Billy's singing is so under rated! He's got an amazing voice!
ua-cam.com/video/1RNNQYpnukA/v-deo.html
@@zedhead2864 It's not underrated. I rate it very highly. :-)
Bucket list here. So glad to have been at the Ryman for this epic performance!
I'm right with you!
Wow! I’m old-school ,I’ve seen all the greats in person since I was a child. These young people are absolutely phenomenal! They’re rendition of the song,”Tennessee”, would make the great Jimmy Martin proud. What a blessing to have these young people to carry on the great tradition, of Bluegrass, and old-time music.
Sierra Hull is amazing!
with kids like these coming up i think bluegrass is going to be in good shape for many years. thank you for this post.
This is just fantastic music. Real music. This makes me wish UA-cam had a love button.
real White music
That line up is off the charts. It’s like the casting of oceans eleven of something.
First time I've heard Molly sing, she should DEFINITELY do it more often!!!
She often does.
She a singer songwriter she mostly sings.
Holy moly this is classic! Just gorgeous.
The kids I started following 10 years ago on U-Tube have scaled the mountain. They are the new royalty of traditional music and do their elders proud. Sierra and Molly could sing with Patsy and Loretta. Plus they are instrumental virtuosos. Play on and on!!!

Some of the best Bluegrass music ever recorded. Thank you, each & every one of YOU!
Amazing. The call and response. Beautiful.

Real music, real songs,real talent. Thankful it still exists when I hear what is being labeled as “music” today.
I hear you. What passes for music today, I have another name for it. These musicians are the real deal, and I can’t get enough of them!
Ok grandpa…
Is that Michael Cleveland on fiddle? Damn that’s a lot of talent on stage
yes it is.
Big balls in cow town WITHOUT a doubt!!
Jerry Douglas...Michael Cleveland...holy shit...!
That's right.
Don't you dare for a second forget that Bryan Sutton is on stage, too!
Good LORD what a lineup!
Amazing, nothing but collaboration. A great blue grass song.
I've always been a Bella fan since the beginning ! And throw in my little brother Billy Strings ! O ya doesn't get any better than that !! My goal is to see you both in concert in 2022 !! Love you all !
I really enjoyed this. Great to hear Molly and Sierra in good voice.
Man I missed the show of the year right here!!!
Words just can’t describe how wonderful this group is. So much talent. What a great performance.🤗
Bela Fleck, Justin, Sierra, and Molly! WOW!!!
Epic! Historical! They're just jamming, but they all trust each other like family. The teamwork is obvious to the viewer, but if you close your eyes, you can hear it as well.
Absolutely OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm in love with Molly. The rest of them were pretty good too! ;-)
It’s great to see Tony Trischka on the tour. Another iconic banjo player!
Bela's mentor.
@@JewandGreek Tony instructed Bela on banjo. My feeling is the Flecktones were formed as a result of Tony’s influence.
I'm sure there's a reason for it I'm not a musician but I think it's so cool how in sink the two fiddle players are with the exact opposite on their push pull it sounds really cool

Thank you Bela for your brand of bluegrass greatness,
Mesmerizing!! Incredible Artists!! 🎼🪕🎼🪕🎼
Love it more every time I listen. Pure American music at its very finest.
Gives me chills each time I watch and listen. So many talented musicians on one stage.
I was there, and after the Standing Ovation Billy told the crowd “Running on Empty” was one of the best songs ever written .. he really is a huge Jackson Browne admirer.
Hot DAMN....That was awesome!!!!
That's a lot of damn talent on that stage.
I can’t stop listening!! the talent level is FANTASTIC!!!

What a show that must have been! I can’t imagine sitting down for even a minute. Bluegrass bliss ❤
That is a show I would have loved to seen live
My Heartgrass Blue.
Huerra Sill, Tully Mottle and Strilly Bings. Great as always.
We just saw Bela and Company in Wilmington, DE. What a wonderful night of bluegrass. And absolute master class in musicianship. I have never been to a Bela Fleck concert that wasn't great and I've seen him with an orchestra, with his wife, with the Flecktones and now back to his bluegrass roots.
How did they get so much talent in one play at the same time, unbelievable.
They all played on the two albums at not all at the same time but they all showed up for these two shows.so why not.
The answer is, of course, Bela Fleck. One of the greatest musical talents ever; he asks you to come play, what an honor. I saw this group live at Freshgrass and I was blown away. It broought back memories of Bela, Sam, Jerry, Tony and Mark playing together. This generation has their own stars, but it's nice to see the overlap.

These ladies not only nail the vocals, but kill it on their instruments. I will do whatever it takes to see them live!
Watched again, I cannot get enough of this. The best of the best on that stage.
absolutely brilliant!!
Bluegrass her and Billy strings are amazing young artists along with their respective bands. Very talented worth going down the rabbit hole and give them a listen.
Glad to be able to go back and listen to this! It was such a great concert to hear in person!
Lucky you!👍
Amen to that!
Can't decide if my favorite part is Sierra saying dark as the night or Billy saying there lives sweetheart 🤣🤗🪕🎶🎶
wow that was amazing and beautiful plain fantastic. great job loved it.
Just saw this in person tonight only Sierra was singing, best song of the night!
Thank you guys for doing a tribute to Jimmy Martin. Jimmy was and still is my all time favorite in bluegrass music. Billy's singing and all the rest was awesome, loved it
OMG! Absolutely Stunning Performances!
Outstanding Jimmy would be proud, love the sound
Listening to Billy and some good bluegrass takes me back to festivals when I was younger. Makes me smile. Billy is something else! Genious!
Wow! That was amazing! Some of my favorites.
This made me smile from ear to ear!
I second that, no doubt brought me to tears, I kept turning up the volume. You can't get much better than Molly and Sierra. Don't know if it would ever happen but I would love to hear Sierra Ferrell sing with them.
Amazing ensemble. Sierra and Molly singing together, Wow. And Billy’s always the crowd pleaser. 🎉
billy sings tenessee so well
All seem to be so humble and such good friends it’s beautiful for sure.
Another talent I am going to have to track. Already knew about Molly, now I have a Sierra Hull to watch.

The best of today. Absofknlutely awesome. 👍😁👍👍
Terrific collection of amazing talent . I didn’t see Billy . However I did notice Jerry .
Maybe my two favorites of the night. Thank you!
Wow. That band rocks. Sprinkle in some Larkin-Poe. What a hoot that would be. Thanks. For all of that. From all of you.
Saw Bella & the boys in San diego; great show! Wish we'd had the "extras" there as well...
And the girls?
Wow, man alive! What a great performance from 3 of my bluegrass heroes altogether on stage. Great job guys! Tim, Yadkinville,NC

Thanks that is the best of the best from davy crokett west virgina 😊😊😊

Magnificent and Fabulous 😊❤
Not bad, if I do say so myself. PSYCH!!! The music made from that powerhouse band and those energetic vocals has left me speechless, tingling and in goosebumps!!
Billy gets the crowd going! What a singer
cover of Bill Monroe‘s “Dark as the Night.” Strings then led the traditional “Tennessee (I Hear You Calling Me)”
Thanks, was trying to find the name of the first song. New to me and beautiful.
GREAT TO SEE 2 NEW YORK CITY GUYS ON BANJO
Great collection of bluegrass musicians, and let’s not forget Jerry Douglas on dobro guitar
