This is the pure spirit of every Bluegrass Festival. Musicians JUST finished their set then naturally just go off into the crowd & start jamming w the locals.
I remember when Laura Orshaw was just 13 years old, playing at the Wrench Wranch in Coventryville, NY! She's always been amazing - so glad to see her nationally known!
This was in my recommend so I had no idea who any of the musicians are or what they was going to play, what a pleasant surprise when they did, it reminded me of time spent in Ireland.
Don't know for sure, but I was at what may have been the source seed for this type of performance. A few years back I worked the 25th Anniversary Party for Asheville music venue The Grey Eagle. It was held at Lake Eden, with back-to-back stages on the lawn sloping down to the lake, alternating sets. Sierra Hull opened the festival. About halfway through her set, there was a loud "POP!" and the sound system croaked. Sierra did not miss a beat, grabbed her mandolin, jogged off stage right of the platform (just like here), leading her band to finish the set 4-5 rows deep in the center aisle of the audience.
What a great way to honor the audience than by playing in their center. There are some fine musicians in this group . Laura Orshaw's and Avery Meritt's fiddle solo's were incredible as was Sierra's mandolin solo,. Don't know who the other guys were but they lit is up as well. This does represent the heart and soul of America.
Been in this business since 1947 and this is has got to be the best jam session ever and I have been all over. so much fun to watch Jeff Saunders on the bass. Sierra has got to be the most educated and the most progressive mandolin player in the world. Hint: No one else could have learned all the ( My Bluegrass Heart) tunes.
Real musicians don’t need a stage or a plan they just need their instruments and a song. I was at a country music event with my daughter (2006??) and there was a ‘private’ little stage show between “acts” where different musicians were doing a little impromptu one after the other. Interesting but not…outstanding. Until Craig Morgan came out. He called up some of the others from backstage and tried to do a little jam with them. Craig was the only musician- the others just performers- and it flopped bad. Nobody could just pull it off, no jam skill. That little jam on the dirt with Hull and the others was over the top and fun, great to listen to. Real musicians.
In case y'all haven't figured it out, it really is Sierra's show. A real star. A legend in front of you. The real deal. And you live in her times, and she , in yours. And this happened because she led everyone to it, cause she's a star & other players will follow.
I'll be damned all of you was amazing I just made my 61st birthday complete and that bass player you are awesome dude thank you for sharing that made my day
For that little guy, Wyatt. A reason to keep picking. I simply don't understand people who have no clue about how this music stays alive and down voted this.
Ah, I used to go to a bluegrass camp and whilst I studied under some of the best names in the business - the jams on the lawn (and later in the bar) were so good, and you never knew who you might be playing with/alongside/after. Once, a few beers down I was impressed with the mando player to my right - hadn't seen him before, but he was good. I learned later that he was John Paul Jones. Oh, BTW - I want the banjo player's shirt!
Wyatt is pushing the envelope for himself to keep up. I dont know how anyone can keep up with that - it's a blistering pace, but Wyatt does keep up which is astonishing.
That young fella's gonna walk away from this encouraged to be better the next time, not discouraged that he couldn't keep up with more experienced players. That's the heart of bluegrass and jam sessions.

the real hero is the bass player.
This is the correct answer.

This was in my recommend so I had no idea who any of the musicians are or what they was going to play, what a pleasant surprise when they did, it reminded me of time spent in Ireland.
Now that’s music.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Wyatt you are on your way to being a true great player in bluegrass
The heart and soul of America is way more than white people jamming.

Jeff Saunders is a force of nature on bass...this is shortly before the 'other' Sierra (Ferrell) snatched him up for her band:)
This is a happy time.
That was Awesome of Sierra and company to come out and play with them.
Greetings from 🇬🇧 great music 👍🏻
This is so beautiful -- I'm crying.
❤️
Thank you so much for this. Loved it! Respect from the UK.

I love that John Paul Jones is into Mandos. And he seems to be such a nice guy!
happy music!
😁

You are one impressive little feller, Wyatt!
Great!
We want more. The audience is large, the music and singing is few. We want more.
That bass slaps, good stuff.
Love it
😄
Clicked on this not knowing it took place in my hometown! Miss oak ridge so much

Bringing it “into the crowd” instead of “to the crowd.”
🤟🤟 glad to see

Music makes people happy. Just look at them smiles. Hehehehe
I love how Bluegrass music is basically a rap battle but with different instruments.
Yes!!!!!
It is also Jazz incarnate:)
