Alice In Chains is my favorite band. I’m only covering their songs out of respect and inspiration for them and to share my passion for their music. Thank you for watching:)
I would just like to thank everyone for all of the comments and support on this video. I’ve had a busy couple of weeks here in Alaska but things should slow down soon so I can get back to making more videos. Stay tuned for that and again thank you for watching:)
Excellent take on a lifelong favorite. I would absolutely love to hear you perform _Rain when I die_ and, I believe the rest of your subscribers would too. Get settled in Alaska, and we will stay tuned 😊
Yes it is. I’ve heard ALOT of nutshell covers and yours is by far the closest to the live mtv performance I’ve ever heard. And that guitar tone? I’ve been playing for almost 20 years and I’ve gotta say, it’s perfect. Great job bud.
Shit. I did not expect this. I saw the title (and how small the channel is) and thought "who tf does this guy think he is". I stand corrected. Nothing will ever compare to the performance by Layne and the boys that night....but this was really, really good. (Edit) A couple other people mentioned the guitar tone and i agree, I don't know what wizardry you used but thats one place where most people miss the mark- You nailed it
I knew the thumbnail would be playing with fire lol. But thank you man that really means a lot. I just wanted to do my best to show respect to AIC because they truly are incomparable
I clicked on the thumbnail because I thought it might be an over statement :P Glad you proved me wrong. The subtleties and softness are what does Layne justice. This is wonderful!
I am amazed by how close that tone is to the EP version, that is simply amazing. Those vocals sounded pretty close to Layne in my opinion and I'm certain he would be and is proud of your cover. Keep this up man that was an amazing cover, and the thumbnail definitely has backup 👍🏻.
Ya I felt that man. Keep singing! If it wouldn’t be too much to ask I feel like you can pull off river of deceit by mad season. Thanks for sharing! Good job!
Wow...just WOW. Took my breath away when you started to sing. Absolutely incredible job man! Alice in Chains is my favorite band and you did this song justice! Sending you love & support from Connecticut!
I just stumbled upon this. Not knowing just how damn amazing. I’ve been doing this for 40 years. That gave me chills and shedding a couple of tears. Thanks for this. Fills me with joy, to see youngsters keeping the oldies alive. Keep on truckin brother!
Man, this is far the best one cover of Nutshell I've ever heard. You've picked the instrumental and the vocals so precise.... Thank you and keep going. You made my night.
Ahh, so nice to discover a hidden gem on youtube. Very talented. Really hope these vids keep coming. Subscribed and will be keeping an eye on this channel.
All I can say is that most covers can’t recreate the same feel the singer gives off this man put is so much emotion I could feel it and by that I can say I’m truly impressed
Subscribed! That was amazing! I’ve always had the utmost respect for those who can play AND sing at the same time and you, my friend, do it exceptionally well!
just that deep, muddy sound. makes you feel like you're stuck. exactly what layne was feeling at that time. Alot of fine tuning and soul went into this. captured perfectly. great job!
My best friend died from an overdose a few months ago. His father introduced us to AIC when we were kids. I listen to this song often. I look for covers to change things up and I am glad I found yours sir. I hope you crush it!
I am so sorry for your loss. Thank you for your support man and I hope you are not grieving alone. This song soothes a lot of pain for me and if my covers help anyone soothe their pain as well then I’m very honored
Dude that sounded so good! I’m impressed cause I can play it *ok* but I can’t play it that well and I definitely can’t sing to it. Hoooolyyy. You captured the soul of the song very well, and I even liked the very beginning where you picked the guitar up off the wall, that was a fun detail
Your voice suites the song very well. You convey the helplessness implied with the song and reach all the ranges with ease. Well done and thank you for sharing your talent.
Upchurch,Aaron lewis,billy strings,your right up there with some great artists doing this song,gotta have the emotion to pull it off.Congrats young man.Or should we say YOUNG GENTLEMAN.
I would just like to thank everyone for all of the comments and support on this video. I’ve had a busy couple of weeks here in Alaska but things should slow down soon so I can get back to making more videos. Stay tuned for that and again thank you for watching:)
We thank you. This was incredibly perfect and we appreciate the raw talent and dedication
Excellent take on a lifelong favorite. I would absolutely love to hear you perform _Rain when I die_
and, I believe the rest of your subscribers would too.
Get settled in Alaska, and we will stay tuned 😊
@@BrutusBerserk That means so much:)
This is perfect. Thank You
Great job
I can't get over especially how well the guitar matches the original recording
Do you play?
@@jamiemartin6193 why?
Wow. As an old guy who grew up listening to Alice In Chains, I find this to be a worthy cover. You capture the melancholy perfectly.
I second that notion. Wow!
I third that notion!!! Nice!
I fourth that notion. Amazing!
And other things too!
Dang dude...the vocals, the tone of that Fender, just perfect.
Layne would be proud man
And Jerry!
@@willnicholls3 Indeed !
I don't think Layne would have cared unless you were obsessed with him.
He didn't have the most stable mentality.
@@davemeade4371 "NO ONE" has a stable mentality NO ONE.......Just saying !
Wowzers. Saying “nicely done” would not describe how good your cover of this deeply emotional song is. That was so good, dude.
That means a lot man thank you:)
Yes it is. I’ve heard ALOT of nutshell covers and yours is by far the closest to the live mtv performance I’ve ever heard. And that guitar tone? I’ve been playing for almost 20 years and I’ve gotta say, it’s perfect. Great job bud.
That means a lot man! Thank you so much:)
I agree! I've heard them all but this is the epitome of the love we feel for Layne & his legacy. What a freaking amazing job. 🥹💕🎶
Shit. I did not expect this. I saw the title (and how small the channel is) and thought "who tf does this guy think he is". I stand corrected. Nothing will ever compare to the performance by Layne and the boys that night....but this was really, really good.

My thoughts were similar. Blown away! That guitar sounds perfect as well as the vocals.
500 subs, such a shame. You did this much justice. You deserve many more views/likes/subs. A diamond in the rough honestly, thanks for sharing.
Vibrato is spot on. Outstanding job all the way around.
I was not ready for how good this would be. Very good interpretation of the song and such a great tone man! Congrats 🙏🏻
Thank you so much:)
Me pasó igual!! Excelente interpretación!!
I play and sing this song all the time. It is always a crowd favorite.
GREAT JOB!!!
Absolutely fucking amazing bro! I can hear the little lead parts playing in my head. Vocals and guitar tone dead on the money perfect!
I've heard lots of covers this is my favorite, killer job bro, Layne would be proud. ❤
I clicked on the thumbnail because I thought it might be an over statement :P Glad you proved me wrong. The subtleties and softness are what does Layne justice. This is wonderful!
Amazing cover!!! Blown away. My favorite AIC song and you rocked it!! 🤘
Great pick for a favorite. Thank you for the support!
The acoustasonic is such a good choice for this song!!! Great cover
I am amazed by how close that tone is to the EP version, that is simply amazing. Those vocals sounded pretty close to Layne in my opinion and I'm certain he would be and is proud of your cover. Keep this up man that was an amazing cover, and the thumbnail definitely has backup 👍🏻.
You popped up in my suggestions tonight, and WOW! You nailed this! Beautiful guitar work and vocals. Excellent!
Ya I felt that man. Keep singing! If it wouldn’t be too much to ask I feel like you can pull off river of deceit by mad season. Thanks for sharing! Good job!

If you toured and played only nutshell as your whole set list I’d pay to come. Amazing cover bro!
That’s awesome😂 Thank you
Not a lot of covers I’ve seen really hit like the original but this is the very very vary rare exception, actually amazing bro.
Your voice suites the song very well. You convey the helplessness implied with the song and reach all the ranges with ease. Well done and thank you for sharing your talent.

I talk with Layne on and off when I drop acid. He says he's proud of you
What's he like?
@@Joemcncheese Extremely chill, funny as hell, super down to earth and he's clean from smack.
