I HEARD HIS VOICE AND IT WAS ALL OVER FOR ME. THE MOST ORIGINAL SINCE HANK!
Wow they blow me away when they play these old standards of Bluegrass. The hottest band on the planet right now. I Love It. Congrats Billy 👏 👏 👏
Its because they wouldnt have their music without these old songs. They appreciate that ❤
1:50 Have you ever visited Eastern Kentucky? Everyone has a guitar behind the door and they will play it at the drop of a
Those Clinch Mtn. Boys could sure harmonize
Me to I love it thanks 😊 ❤!!++
@@user-ob1zy5vc4q That's where my family is from. The Sun came up at 10 in the morning and set at 3 in the afternoon it seemed..
Thank you Billy for keeping it alive. God Bless you sir.
The real deal thanks Billy
Billy Strings is amazing. He is well known now, but he will be in the Hall of Fame someday. He is right up there with the Louvan Brothers, the Stanley Brothers, and all the greats. Watch and see. ❤️
Kid has definitely got it
This is all beyond gorgeous and beautiful. No words to describe how good these guys are.
One of the best renditions. The Stanley brothers would be impressed. Thank you.
Wow what a voice. Being from the blue ridge mts of NC I can really appreciate this music.
Being from Wise and Dickenson County Virginia, and having grown up with the Stanley Brothers, this young man is a breath a fresh air and embodies true bluegrass music.
Scott county here.
Coeburn here neighbors .
My Dad grew up in Big Stone Gap ......
Franklin County VA here..
Other than being a gay-azz commie which has NOTHING to do with the BG ethos
Those Clinch Mountain Boys sure could harmonize.
Yes sir. Beautiful music!
Billy Strings is great singer U K
The authenticity of Billy and the band shines through.
The Stanley Brothers are not easy to copy well, and this version is outstanding, especially when considering this is live.
Billy has been a country and bluegrass legend since day 1
As usual, Billy and the boys doing justice to a legendary Stanley Brothers song
I saw him back in April 2023 and they played Stone Walls and Steel Bars. Absolutely paid it justice with the cover
Glory To God! Soon we’ll all be going to our Eternal Home In Heaven. Thank you for this song.
Man, he can pick that guitar!
Billy was put on this earth to keep the old standards in blue grass alive.
Best rendition since Ralph Stanley!
Best rendition since Carter Stanley!
Great stuff Billy...A real song and well sung...Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪 ☘️
One of the few who can do justice to the original bluegrass legends.
Can't stop listening. Straight to my soul
Love your sincerity it is Un filtered and you are awesome to share. Great vibe
I was at this show. Ralph Stanley smiled in heaven when he heard this! It was a perfect cover!
This genre keeps sending us angels. Welcome to the real gold Billy.
One of my very, very favorite bluegrass tunes.
Billy Strings in my opinion is the most talented musician alive,his band members are not bad themselves..
I've loved watching Billy's singing come up to match his guitar playing. He could always sing, of course, but now he's really got it down and it's a pleasure to hear.
You can't talk Abt or have bluegrass without the Stanley brothers.
so true
They are way overdue for induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame.
Young men you got some great talent, Please keep it up I'm 76 this is one of the songs I love so well, Thank you for sharing, BESAFE❤❤
Hang in there old timer. Don’t let the old man in. 🙏🇺🇸
Going to see him for the first time today in St.Augustine Florida with my family from st Petersburg FL can't wait till this afternoon will be a great experience
@stevendittman9081 Enjoy I hope you have a great time!!
I've heard of you young man but I've never listened to your music till now,you got my attention for sure, God Bless You Sir,keep it up,

Where Noone will be a stranger to me.

🌹🌹🌹🌹
Growing up in Appalachia Kentucky this song brings back memories of home, I see an old farmhouse and mammy and Pappy setting in the living room listening to flat and Scruggs those many years ago, I can’t wait to see them along with mom, pop, all my aunts, uncles, cousins already gone home. Bless those mountain roads hollers, and that old church house we all loved. They sing as if they know how we feel from being here and knowing the feeling of living in these old mountains, the people, the customs and the things that make this place the only place in the world you wanna be, it’s home.
Thanks guys a beautiful job on a beautiful song
The Stanley Brothers would approve!
My thought exactly. The Stanley Brothers are a hard act to follow, but Billy Strings and his band cover this great song beautifully.
Have always loved this song. Well done, guys.
Wonderful cover. Thank you. Dr. Stanley would be so pleased.
When they played this in SLC i cried like a baby.✌️
Can't blame you, this guy makes me weep every concert, he truly is a beautiful soul!
Lovely and with feeling Billy
Man I love this song. My grandparents used to play it along with a long list of blue grass music. It was all my grandpa listened to. I once left my cassette of the Doors in the tape player of his truck, the look on his face when that was what he heard instead of bluegrass when it started playing …. Excellent cover.
Wow, very well done. Always loved that song.
That is a great job..would love him to do a gospel album
One of my favorite hymns. You guys done an awesome job.
Great. Just great. Each and every one!
He reminds me so much of The Great Tony Rice in his handling of the standards
So Good. ? a Voice. Slán.
Kluci tohle je u mně skutečný Bluegrass. Tohle hrajte pořád. A v tomto duchu skládejte i nové písně a nemůžete udělat chybu !!! Zdravím vás z České republiky 🤠🪕🔥🎻🇨🇿
You have that right, sir. I'm an old man from the Eastern Kentucky Highlands and am rooted in old-time Mountain Music/Bluegrass. I've only heard some of this fellow's guitar picking and was doubtful about how he might handle a song like this. No longer! He sang it and played the guitar breaks just as the song should be sung and played. I think the Stanley Brothers would approve. I think it's wonderful that people such as yourself can relate to this music and realize it's the heart and soul lies with songs such as this. We share something in common, I think, in the folk music of our two countries. I've heard some really impressive Bluegrass from your country and always feel like it's a real compliment. Okay, sorry to go on so long. I hope all is well with you in your beautiful land.
salute Brother! To you and the Czech Republic! 🇺🇸🇨🇿🇺🇸🇨🇿
My Dad in heaven is enjoying this cover of Rank Stranger. Thx Billy!
Sounds awesome Billy
Omg I freaking love this song and I went to type it in and it said Billy strings beside rank stranger. 😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍 just beautiful and wonderful and amazing and ALL THE THINGS
Funny going back with these old hymns and they hold up today From Dr. Stanley to Billy today. Just good American music.
A Civil War soldier coming home, but it has been so long that nobody is home. That is what home is. It is a momory in your mind.
You’re the Man
❤ Awesome!
This brought back memories of my dad and us girls singing these old songs with him through the years ! Great job !!

Best nasal singing I have heard.
