Kate is perfect. Her music is mostly unknown in The Unites States (where I live). It's a shame... but I also love introducing people to her. They're always blown away.
I “discovered” her a few years ago. Lovely and brilliant. I wish she would tour here in the states but I read she won’t fly. Her song and performance of My Young Man is devastating.
Thanks Joshua. I as watching this document and wondered whether America would appreciate her talent. Sadly, it appears not. Bet you introduce her to your friends and family. Kind regards from "Locked Down" England. February 2021.
Just discovered Kate a month ago. Now I'm buying all her albums at once. What a lovely songbird she is. Oh my gosh, what a sweetie she is in her interview in the hotel. I love her laugh.
🐝 I am so grateful that Kate includes the Colliery Brass Band in so much of her music. I have no connection to mining, but played in bands and appreciate the skill, artistry, and camaraderie of these groups. The way they support and intertwine with her beautiful voice is very uplifting.
It is almost with embarrassment that I, a transported North Yorkshire lad, avid folk music fan for 50 years, emigrant to Canada and now in Vermont, USA for the past 35 years, admits to not knowing of Kate Rusby until the past year when , in a bunch of cd's I acquired from a local couple, in there was one of Kate's first albums. Captivated, I am now on a quest to acquire as many of Kate's albums as possible.. Many thanks for posting this wonderful video.
This was a wonderful video about Kate and her family. I was fortunate to find her music through listening to The Thistle and the Shamrock on public radio here in the states. I've loved her music ever since. She is amazing.
A few years ago I used to play her song, The big ship sails, at a playgroup in Edinburgh, on my mobile phone. All the kids loved it, and I used to have to play it several times to assuage their thirst for her lovely voice. I often wonder how many of those wee kids still remember her singing. Whoever made the original video, included still shots of old sailing ships, knew a thing or two about music and images. The weird thing is someone told me she was from Nottingham and I believed them LOL
I've come across Kate again after many years , I first discovered her on BBC radio 2 folk awards back in 2000 her voice was very special then but it's got so much better !! So pleased to hear this beautiful voice again .
I have loved Kate for years! Such a beautiful voice and I love her choice of traditional old folk song. Thankyou for posting. Now if only she'd travel to Australia.
My musical friends are I play I courted a sailor and the elfin knight and absolutely love these tunes. Maybe in ten years I’ll get tired of them but never when Kate is singing. Such an exquisite talent with endearing humility is rare
This young lass is only recently blessing the speakers of my truck.im a geordie and find alot in common with Barnsley folk.like us geordies they are a breed of their own. Here's to many more miles.thank you.x
Huge talent, as both a singer and a song writer. She comes across as a really genuine woman still faithful to her roots, oh and I should mention astonishingly beautiful👍
We are the kate rusby preservation society, God made silky tones, acoustics and melody. We are the kate rusby superfan conglomerate, Always here listening to all her different varieties.
Just found out she's playing Glasgow Royal Concert Hall at the end of the month, but I can't make it cuz I'm picking up a stray dog from Spain. Gutted. Maybe I'll name the dog in her honour. 👍 I like her even more now after watching this documentary. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this. Heard the name but not the voice until last night when I heard Hunter's Moon on 6Music. Just gone on a listen spree and now watching this.
A beautiful film. It just confirms why I love Kate and her music so much. Would have liked a mention of then husband, musical collaborator and producer, John McCusker, though we did see him once or twice. Maybe this was when their marriage was breaking up. Makes some of the songs even sadder. Oh the power of good music!
First heard about kate through jam and Jerusalem, where they use village green as the theme :) absolutely love her voice, very enjoyable to sing along to aswell ^-^ so happy there is a doco about her!
So awed by Kate’s voice. It can only be described as a gift from the gods. Please come to the USA..you are a gift to humanity! Thank-you Ricky Gervais(a great humanitarian himself)for exposing us to this angel.
Kate, I used to sing polly to my daughter at bed time, revisited and tried singing, how do you sing half of those without welling up,have not managed one without cracking 😱
What a great story. Certainly puts Barnsley on the map. Mum has a nice voice too.......... duet coming up on future album?? Belonging to a mining male voice choir, her story is quite poignant.
I've been a fan of Kate for many years, and this made me nostalgic for when I lived in South Yorkshire. There is a sad aspect to this film though - although it isn't mentioned for obvious reasons, at the time she had just split up with her husband John McCusker, though he was still touring with her (the one playing fiddle). I think some of the songs on the album are about the break-up, so must have been a very uncomfortable situation for both of them.
Actually you can cut out the big lables who as an artist you would be mad to sign for. Ask Taylor swift or George Michael. The notion that independence is not an option has been pedaled for years. It's a case of getting the right advice at the right time. Compass records is an independent lable started by Allison Brown over 20 years ago (a talented accountant and banjo player) And has a stock of clients including Andrea Zonn (fiddle player and singer with James Taylor no less) The dreaded 24/7 contracts which are financial "Venus fly traps" are defacto "asset striping" devices that exist to shut down competition and shelve artists that can compete against their own portfolios. It's never been easier to go it alone with the right advice and representation. Obviously Kate and her family are fully aware of the independent route behind the wisest. I wish them the greatest of success.
For sure she's a pretty lass, in today's cooperate music industry that's numero uno important. Her singing voice flat, weak, soulless. Choice of materials absolutely dull. Back up band unimpressive uninspiring 🦨🤮🚽 !!! to billie holiday, sandy denny, arundhati roy 🍄🌄🌈🐞🦄🦚🇺🇲🏴🇮🇳🌬👏🌻🦋🕉🙏✌🏾...........🤓
You meant corporate, I imagine, and Kate Rusby's career has been as far from corporate music as it's possible to be. As for the rest of your post, it can safely be filed under personal opinon.
@@colinrandall5525 “Opinion”, indeed. Those of us who love Kate’s singing, and how she shares her sweet self through it, are not diminished by the comments of a sour person who only sits in judgement and cranks out emojis like a child.
Ricky Chang, obviously not a fan of real honest to goodness down to earth music, presented Beautifully by a real folk singing Yorkshire Beauty. Your opinion has been duly noted and placed in file 13. Peace be with you🙏🥴
She is diamond in the coal mine that is today's music scene. A brilliant original.
Just learned of Kate's existence 4 months ago and am now a huge fan!!!!
Kate is perfect. Her music is mostly unknown in The Unites States (where I live). It's a shame... but I also love introducing people to her. They're always blown away.
Joshua Jordison Me to. I live here in The States also. But, I also know who she is.
Me too.
I “discovered” her a few years ago. Lovely and brilliant. I wish she would tour here in the states but I read she won’t fly. Her song and performance of My Young Man is devastating.
Good work.

How could any think this doc deserves a thumbs down. It feels like you are sitting in her kitchen listening to her story. It is comfort to the soul.
Exquisite voice and talent, incredibly humble and witty, a magical beautiful talent.
Just discovered Kate a month ago. Now I'm buying all her albums at once. What a lovely songbird she is. Oh my gosh, what a sweetie she is in her interview in the hotel. I love her laugh.
I cannot listen to "My Young Man" without crying. Of all her songs this one touches me most of all.
Same here.I don't see how anyone can fail to be moved by it. Annan Waters is another song that nearly bring me to tears when Kate sings it

i'm a taxi driver, and i have to say your christmas albums saved my days !!! i downlowded all your stuff !!! and i'm a big fan of your's!!!
So proud of the lass being from the tarn ... Blissful blessed beauty

I discovered Kates music just a couple weeks ago and I’m so pissed that she’s not this well-known in the United States. She’s fantastic!

A gem of a human being. If only the rest of humanity was like this it would be a wonderful world.
You are right, she is what you call a national treasure.
I saw Kate performing with her Folk partner, Kathryn ;( Forgotten surname ) in 97 @ Edinburgh Festival.. As Clear Now as They we’re then..😍
Met Kate in Holmfirth 20 years ago. A wonderful gift to the world.
Just started watching this documentary, and I had to comment ... her mother is a really excellent singer as well.
My musical friends are I play I courted a sailor and the elfin knight and absolutely love these tunes. Maybe in ten years I’ll get tired of them but never when Kate is singing. Such an exquisite talent with endearing humility is rare
" I sound like a witch when I sing"........seriously Kate? You're the best sounding "witch" I've ever heard! 🙂
This young lass is only recently blessing the speakers of my truck.im a geordie and find alot in common with Barnsley folk.like us geordies they are a breed of their own. Here's to many more miles.thank you.x
Huge talent, as both a singer and a song writer. She comes across as a really genuine woman still faithful to her roots, oh and I should mention astonishingly beautiful👍
Tongue up ass
Her Christmas music melts me. Candlemass Eve and Poor Old Horse. My very favorite of songs on my 8hr xmas playlist.
Stunning artist! Voice so pure, just like a gentle brook flowing down a mountain side.
She’s a credit to her family, Yorkshire and England. 👏👏👏👏❤️❤️
We are the kate rusby preservation society,
God made silky tones, acoustics and melody.
We are the kate rusby superfan conglomerate,
Always here listening to all her different varieties.
How wonderful! Your musical choices, your voice, and the mood you set, are all deeply moving!
Thanks a million bunch whoever made this documentary!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love how she complains about the song "I Courted a Sailor," and the documentary promptly starts playing it.
I previously noticed how well she's produced and how great her albums sound. Now I see why.
Just got tickets to see you Kate in BRISTOL, it's been so long since i have seen you and I can't wait..... can you still sing ?? 🤣😂
l adore Kate Rusby great and moving singer.
I just now ran across her listening to Sarah Jarosz and Aoife O'Donnell sing "Some Tyrant" and discovered Kate Rusby wrote it.
Just found out she's playing Glasgow Royal Concert Hall at the end of the month, but I can't make it cuz I'm picking up a stray dog from Spain. Gutted. Maybe I'll name the dog in her honour. 👍 I like her even more now after watching this documentary. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for posting this. It was beautiful and informative.
Wonderful doco, I have loved Kate's music for many years. Now I learn about her amazing family too.
'Ahm kackin' mi pants, is how I am'. Ah Ah! How Yorkshire, how kate!
Thank you for this. Heard the name but not the voice until last night when I heard Hunter's Moon on 6Music. Just gone on a listen spree and now watching this.
Great music,well made documentary. Very talented woman.

Love the addition of the Brass boys. I'm from S Yorkshire and remember them well, still one or two knocking about but not often seen now.
I saw Kate on Sunday at the Cambridge Folk Festival and fell in love all over again. Made me want to start drinking Yorkshire Tea.
I compromise and drink Yorkshire Bitter!
Go for it. Yorkshire tea is brilliant :)
Kate's mother can sing too! :O
Love this lady beautiful singer and soul
First heard about kate through jam and Jerusalem, where they use village green as the theme :) absolutely love her voice, very enjoyable to sing along to aswell ^-^ so happy there is a doco about her!
Love Kate’s music. Her family’s mining history mirrors my own. Music straight to the heart. Beautiful in every way.
Thank you.
So awed by Kate’s voice. It can only be described as a gift from the gods. Please come to the USA..you are a gift to humanity! Thank-you Ricky Gervais(a great humanitarian himself)for exposing us to this angel.
Nice voice.Another amazing artist like Sarah harmer,kathleen edwards,Dallas Green.
Posted on my birthday, Kate my favourite singer!
What a beautiful person she is, voice of an angel, beautiful looking , WOW
Kate, I used to sing polly to my daughter at bed time, revisited and tried singing, how do you sing half of those without welling up,have not managed one without cracking 😱
Beguiling and magical performer.
Absolutely delightful singer !!!
Thanks for posting . :)
She and Karine Polwart; both incredibly talented.
What a great story. Certainly puts Barnsley on the map. Mum has a nice voice too.......... duet coming up on future album??
Belonging to a mining male voice choir, her story is quite poignant.
The album Kate is working on here was the first Kate Rusby album I bought.
She's great...saw her at Cambridge. Must try and get to see her again.
What stunningly beautiful humble lady you are ❤️. 💚💚☘️
Beautiful stuff.
Maybe it's time for the next chapter? Looking forward to it!!

Sweet Thames flow softly...same tune different lyrics
I love the warble in her divine voice. With her, and Sinead O’Connor, I’d have most of what I need in music. 😊
kate Rusby has got a sensational voice
Wow! Where have I've been?
Ron, I am in the same boat over here across the pond. 'Better late than never' goes the saying !
She has an Angelic voice!
If all Joe and his Magic Tools had to do was make Kate's voice "sound nice" he's have the easiest job in the world!
God I love her.
Lush - I'm addicted
Reason to believe in singing angels.
Why have I only just discovered Kate Rusby?.....
Mike Hopkins I guess just count yourself lucky that you have discovered her :)
...only just discovered Kate myself! Lovely stuff - does anyone know what tuning she uses?

I am going to the collage that she went to in September
I don't think I'm too far off the mark by claiming she's the Geordie Eva Cassidy - I love them both!!
Geordie ????
She’s not a geordie.
She's gorgeous.
she is even more ace than a box of best Gir Kesar Mango
how lovely is that
A lot of wires...
She’s a mixture of Sandy Denny and Melanie .
Ms Roberts watch yer back, ya ma's on your tail.
What numpty down-votes a Kate Rusby documentary?!
I saw her in Leeds in the 90s. Made a career from being sweet
Sweet and highly Talented?
Why doesn't she sing like she talks?
Cuz then she'd be talking
@@BramHepburn No, she'd be singing. With her accent.
@@Josef_R she does sing with an accent
@@danielthompson4463 I didn't say she doesn't.
@@Josef_R then what do you mean?
For sure she's a pretty lass, in today's cooperate music industry that's numero uno important. Her singing voice flat, weak, soulless. Choice of materials absolutely dull. Back up band unimpressive
