Billy is NOT playing left handed in this video. He was using the front camera on his phone when he recorded this video and it created a flipped effect, appearing as he's playing left handed but he ain't. Sorry for confusion!
I noticed that anachronism, however, as a fan of Doc Watson since 1960, l truly admire his fantastic ability to give a lot of credit and respect to Doc and his father for the inspiration to become the flat picking genius that he has become. We all are blessed to able to hear and see Billy perform the music that we love. Not only traditional and Bluegrass, but pop tunes through the ages. This talent comes through immersion and practice. People are not born with this amount of talent. Hard work and dedication are the key. I, as well as many others, have a great admiration for Billy's amazing talent, and for sharing with everyone else through U Tube!
💗Cool, no confusion! Thank You Jaden, so kind of you to share with the world, Billy appreciates it im sure, I definitely do! It's my only outlet, You tube, for now anyway, so ty!💠💗💠
Billy I am a dead head from way back, I have been going to to the Philadelphia folk festival for over thirty years. I saw doc at the folk and the chestnut cabaret and if he was here today he would do proud of you 👍
Oh my God my God ! Oh Praise God! Freaking beautiful experience I just had listening to this on a Monday afternoon. My back porch in the shade, beautiful flower garden in full radiant bloom, I hear children playing in the above ground swimming pool at the trailer next to mine. And then THIS. Oh the bliss! A total trance state overtakes my body. I can't help but move to this music like a rave. Like the Holy Spirit, speaking in tongues, like sticking my tongue on a 9 volt battery of my heart.
Just spending time listening to you makes my whole world seem a lot better. But there is a point in time where I have to go back to the real world.thats a drag. Realty sucks sometimes ,but that's life. Thanx billy for your time you give to me and many others
He was doing Blaze Foley covers at the man's gravesite, and he wanted to play a song but he "didn't know the words" and then he channeled them perfectly from Blaze himself.

They hit the nail right on the head when. He received guitar player of the year should get it many more times and his love an passion for music and sharing it is amazing
I'd heard Billy play clawhammer before but this went to a whole new level. Wow he's a phenomenal banjo player. Of course, his guitar skills go without saying as well. Thanks so much for posting this!
I know I'm watching the recording... still amazing Billy. Thanks for the Doc Watson, I know he is a big influence on you, Nashville Blues was my first one of his... still a struggle but I love it
This is the second time I've had a chance to hear that song. The rythem seems to put my brain in a hypnotic state. How unique. Oh, I like the next one. keep playing, I'm gonna grab Souly.
Anytime I listen you playing Billy I can't do nothing but just enjoy and feel soooooo goooood!! Thank You so much 🥰💝🥰💝🥰🥰💝🥰 Yes I am your great fan from Croatia, Europe and I do hope to live enough long to listen you alive and, perhaps meet You in person!! I'd be more than honoured to have a drink and small talk with You and the members of Your band❗ Lots of regards, Marijan
Thanks, but I take no credit for Billy's awesome skills! I believe when he recorded the video, the image flipped and it makes it look like he's playing lefty but he's actually playing right handed
This is badass Jaden. It's relaxing for me, I'm liking it. I listen to all the concerts, but like the ole sit down porch gigs the best, wow, lovin this y'all 🎵,,,,🌼Cheryl 💮🕊️

B Billy Strings has always been keeping track of every strum and note. Thru the movement of his mouth when he was three yrs old picking and strumming hiss guitar he would count the timing as he wouldpla mo we and played with his Dad and Uncle r
I believe your the best Guitar player of all time.your totally awesome.God has really given you a fantastic talent. Use it use it use it.i also love your upbeat Gospel songs. Your so talented.i could listen to these songs all day long. Your fingers move like a streak of lightning..Glory to God what a talent . Always throw in a little Gospel in ok?.I think you could do ...I am the man Thomas really great.will you play and sing that one for me .
I’d like to hear Billy play at a much slower tempo. I think it would show his genius more. All the greats play slower when they get older. I look forward to hearing him mellow like a priceless fine wine.
What's the name of that song around the 11:00 minute mark? I play a little clawhammer, I'd like to learn that song. Whew! Good job Billy. You'd think banjo was your first instrument, but apparently you can play anything with Strings.
Hmm im left handed. Sucks.. I bought a guitar today at a pawn shop and it was so dusty my goodness... nice song choice btw. I used to sing that back when i well in the before time in the 90s but that is one of my favorites.

I knew this with The camara 👌

Billy, to give us over an hour of your musical genius and play your heart out,,,,,, I just want to say, Thank You.
I'm a man ,,, and I DONT CRY!! But my eyes just cant stop tearing up when I hear this FRICKEN GENIUS!!!!
Has more talent in his little finger than most folks have in their whole lives...
I just love that he knows about Old time/Folk/ Americana music 🎶...

Small slice of heaven, ain't it?
I could listen to Billy Strings play and sing all day. Thanks for sharing!
I love how Billie goes to another place when he starts to play. It’s deep in his soul.
I can't believe I get this show for free!! Billy Strings has the most beautiful iteration of "all gas, no brakes" hahaha
This is great. It's like hanging out in your talented friend's bedroom, and your friend is Billy Strings.
pamcm1098 Your ridiculously and insanely talented friend haha!!
Why can't it be living room?😅
His sense of rhythm is just as amazing as the notes he plays
Just spending time listening to you makes my whole world seem a lot better. But there is a point in time where I have to go back to the real world.thats a drag. Realty sucks sometimes ,but that's life.
Thanx billy for your time you give to me and many others
I Fell in love with Banjo 😁
Just wonder how many songs, note for note, word for word, Billy carries in his head?!!
That's what I find truly amazing as well!
He was doing Blaze Foley covers at the man's gravesite, and he wanted to play a song but he "didn't know the words" and then he channeled them perfectly from Blaze himself.
Anything you touch turns into a symphony of sound. Thank you for coming along during my last years, you're the Efren of acoustic music.

Billy is a monster musician! Thanks for sharing!
I know I'm watching the recording... still amazing Billy. Thanks for the Doc Watson, I know he is a big influence on you, Nashville Blues was my first one of his... still a struggle but I love it
The best I hear is when Billy plays alone or with his pops
I agree! When he plays solo (or with his dad) its just you and his amazing talent.
@@iraforleiter7954 the other instruments just muddle it all up to much

This is such a special sweet jam with us love you Billy Strings 👀🪕🎵🎸🎵🎶🕺🎤💚🍀🎻🎵
I love to watch and listen to this guy. He is the BEST, but just a reflection of his former self.
I discovered Billy Strings a few months ago. I love this artist. I hope one day I'll see him, and Molly Tuttle, in concert in France.
"just a reflection of his former self" HaHaHa, clever.
Wonderful concert! Thanks!!!!
Is your name pronounced, sergei cefronov? Trying to better my Russian reading.

Thanks, but I take no credit for Billy's awesome skills! I believe when he recorded the video, the image flipped and it makes it look like he's playing lefty but he's actually playing right handed
Look at the writing on his shirt dude lol

@@ryanpackard598 thx Ryan
Out of this world i screamed
This dude could knock down a wall, grab a board from it and put strings on it and make it sound like the best song you've ever heard.
I love watching him play. Funny how he keeps timing with his mouth, it reminds me of how my brother use to play growing up.

mo we and played with his Dad and Uncle r
THIS WAS OUTSTANDING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought it might be so because I know Billy is right handed.
Anyway, it's just great😉😉😍😍! Thank you so much, Billy!!
Thanks
Ive gotta see ole billy play live..poss have joint / beer with him💨😀
Don't even know how to express the feeling that banja gives an ole boy! Hooked 🎣
Song reminds me of an old Sierra game called robin hood for old Packard bell 286...8mhz...
This song yes 🙌🏼 I just wanna replay it
you rock

. Always throw in a little Gospel in ok?.I think you could do ...I am the man Thomas really great.will you play and sing that one for me .
I hate how people credit god for a mans hard work....
This was during Covid. He’s wanting to practice and entertain. He needed exposure at this time. Think about it guys. Very enjoyable.

I’d like to hear Billy play at a much slower tempo. I think it would show his genius more. All the greats play slower when they get older. I look forward to hearing him mellow like a priceless fine wine.
Can’t anyone take time out of their busy day to make a set list for this video? Good Lord.
Done, see my comment. Still need IDs on 2 banjo instrumentals if anyone knows them.
Much appreciated.
Does anyone know the names of those banjo songs? Love the vibe, very beautiful
🔥🔥🔥💯 GOAT
Jaden, would you happen to have a link for part #1... Thanks again for posting, it is completely relaxing, much love, appreciated 💚🎵💚

Thank You 😊🙏💚
I call it a mirror image!
Anyone have the set list for this? Would be greatly appreciated!!!
Why did this end?? Why?!? Such a cruel world we live in!
Haha... Only thing to do is play it again!!! We are most fortunate that we can. I'm on my third time...
DEFINITELY a crossroads deal.................
I wish that he would play more banjo.. This is really rare to see..
I grabbed the guitar instead of bass. Dang, hard to hang but it's fun to jam with you.
He could be playing left handed standing on his head blindfolded eating a sandwich on the bow of a boat in ten foot seas and play better than me
What's the name of that song around the 11:00 minute mark? I play a little clawhammer, I'd like to learn that song. Whew! Good job Billy. You'd think banjo was your first instrument, but apparently you can play anything with Strings.
Hence the name
What's the name of the banjo song at 9:00?
frosty morn
Hi Billy how are you,O.K.YOU HAVE GOOD ONE BYE FOR NOW.
Dude.
Does anybody know what that song is about?
Now we have Billing Failing, and Billy Frailing. Nice.
People disliked this video.... what in the actual hell?
Hmm
The last thing on my mind transcription with tab: czcams.com/video/FU7t4xfmO0c/video.html
Fanx
Lea und cloe?
Left handed????
Image is mirrored!
mosin9105 camera flip .... ck the letters on his shirt. Bassawards
Frank Hiatt Oh, ya! Thanks!
He's also written backwards on his vest
Hmm im left handed. Sucks.. I bought a guitar today at a pawn shop and it was so dusty my goodness...
nice song choice btw. I used to sing that back when i well in the before time in the 90s but that is one of my favorites.
Im pretty new to banjo so could someone tell me what tuning he is in ?
I love how Billie goes to another place when he starts to play. It’s deep in his soul.
Thanks
