Blackberry Smoke at Levitate Music & Arts Festival 2019 - Livestream Replay (Entire Set) 

The demise of FM radio is the reason these guys are the best band most of your friends haven't heard of yet. I don't know anyone who doesn't love them the first time they hear them. Ain't Much Left Of Me would have made them superstars in the FM radio era, and if not that, Run Away From It All, or One Horse Town, Prayer For The Little Man, Best Seat In The House and/or lots of other of their original songs would have broken them nation wide and given them the exposure and level of success that their never ending touring is giving them now. Success is a relative thing and I have the sense that they love playing together and any success that they have attained is great but not the reason they started and still play together today, but success usually translates into longevity and that means we get more and more music from them. I took way too long to say I love this band and hope they never stop.

Re-watching this 4 years after it aired. Just as fantastic as the first time. Bitter sweet as drummer, Brit Turner passed on 3 March 2024. Again thnaks for the closeup filming, great sound, showing the fans and the venue. Blackberry Smoke are the real deal. See them live if you can. From France.They're playing in Europe Sept. 2024. Got my tickets for Brussels, Paris and Milano! Merci Levitate.

Charlie Starr is playing in open G here with the same skill he plays in open tuning.. He's a beast of guitar and hugely underrated

0:00 Lord Strike Me Dead 3:52 Run Away From It All 8:34 Believe You Me 13:54 Medicate My Mind 19:50 Mother Mountain 24:46 I'll Keep Ramblin' 32:33 One Horse Town 37:23 Amazing Grace 38:51 Ain't Much Left of Me/Three Little Birds

I've been listening to these guys for several years.. but have never seen a full set on stage.. These dudes belong on the list among the elite.. If they had been doing this in the late 70's, they'd have been mega stars.. Awesome musicianship

These boys have a genuine love for what they do. It's written on their faces.

The band Blackberry Smoke is the Lynyrd Skynyrd of the 21 Century. Charlie Starr is the best vocalist of this century too. Thanks Guys we all love your music. I listen to y'all all day and night. Cleaning house to BBS music, even have my husband listening to their music. BBS is the BEST. When y'all come to Tx. its just too hot to go to the concert, but I love ya all. Take care and stay safe.

Ime 77 now just discovered these guys and can’t seem to get enough

I saw BBS play acoustic to a crowd of about 100 people in The Basement in Nashville in 2017. This was my first time seeing them play. After the show they had a 'Meet & Greet'. I got their autograph and a picture with Charlie. Before the show I looked them up and the first song I listened to was "Aint' Much Left of Me". I was smoked, blown away and instantly fell in love with them. The next time was the second concert in 2018 at The Shed. As the band ended their show, a tremendous storm came rolling in. Within minutes the power was out all over Maryville, Tn. These boys are so loyal to their fans, they went ahead and did the Meet & Greet that was scheduled. They did it without any power, very little lighting, and in a downpour of rain. They are so dedicated to their fans, they show us how grateful they are and how much they care about us, the Brothers and Sisters. They have been together for over 20 years, & I think it's time they get the recognition they deserve. They have been guests on The Tonight Show, Stephen Colbert show, Conan O'Brien, jools Holland, Carso Daly, NCIS: New Orleans tv show, and their music is played numerously on the series "Yellowstone". They deserve a Grammy!!!!!

A Tele, a Les Paul, and a Gretsch in one band. What more could you possibly need? Love this band.

Paul never stops smiling, and that's AWESOME!!!

This video has set the record for the most times I've ever gotten goosebumps in 45 minutes. (I lost count about 15 minutes in, but I'm quite certain that it's a record.) Got-damm this band is good!

A HARD touring band, never given their due. The extension of traditional southern rock. Rock on brothers.

like a big old ball of zepplin,tom petty.crowes,stones i could go on........these guys are solid gold great musicianship

Just started listening to these guys.. MAN THEY FUCKING JAM!!!

I am from Brazil and I love this band, Blackberry Smoke Rocks!

I only heard of Blackberry Smoke 2 years ago and found out they've been around years. Loved them immediately. By far the best southern rock band to grace the stage in recent years. One the hardest working too.

Blackberry Smoke is completely awesome! 😍♥️

I can’t stop watching this set. Hottest band by far in my opinion. Love the vibe, vocals, lyrics, guitars, bass, keys, and drums, all of it. The first 2 songs hit you right in the face. This set gives me hope for the future and something to look forward to.

That's very fine Rock and Roll. probably the best American band currently.

Wow. What a great set by an awesome band. You people that thumbed this video down don't know shit.

Blackberry smoke really rocks. Long time fan here. Spread the good word.

These guys are keeping rock-in-roll alive. Big thumbs up.

First time listening. These guys should be superstars. Way better than 98 percent of garbage on todays radio!

Levitate 2019...a rainy sorta off/ on showers in S. Ga. today begs for me to play this video...Charlie Starr( 2 R's ), Born to be a Star, ( 1 R); & STAR HE IS...Put Benji Shanks on back up lead guitar/ mandolin etc...❤ it! Prayers for the wife/ children/ band members of the Awesome Drummer gone to heaven way to soon...❤ LOVE & PEACE TO ALL...

People say Rock-N-Roll is dead, well this is obvious proof that it's not. FUCK YEAH KEEP ROCKING!!!!!!!

So cool! I stumbled across these guys right here on you tube last year. Probably one of the best and famous southern rock bands no one ever heard of.

Hey guys.... Thanks for bringing talent and hair back to music.

Heard about these guys through an old seventies bandmate and everything he said is correct!!! Great job!!!

Helping me live.Thank u love Blackberry Smoke

My current favorite band, and I’m 62, guitar player since 7. Tell ya something?

I from the Stones & Dylan era, but this is one of the great new bands in my book

I love to levitate my spirit. This is something your creation does for me. Thank you

I was never a fan of southern rock till I saw these guys live, They are on par with any of the jazz or blues guys I've ever heard or played with,,

First time I heard them it was the Black Crowes, they were one if a kind then, now there's 2 and I couldn't be happier about it!

Good to hear these guys are still going....& turning out new tracks. Fricken awesome, they have gotten better with age :)

Saw them open for Tedeschi Trucks Band twice this summer. Really solid southern rock band. Charlie really is a perfectionist on the guitar and leads this band superbly.

This band is way better live than in the album recording. And in the album they're fucking amazing. Trying to manage that ever since 😂 Love that band Long live the southern rock and roll spirit!

I love this beautiful Southern Band. Charlie Starr and his companions donate beautiful songs and a lot of warmth and groove on stage. Stay Rock !!

They’re like a mix of Allmans, Kentucky Headhunters, Ozark Mtn boy’s, & even a little bit of Jethro Tull thrown & they turn it around with a tremendous mix & make it their own. Love love this band!!

No shame in only just discovering BBS. They've only been playing since 2002 at the Star Bar in Atlanta. Blackberry Smoke is a name suggested to them [I forget which group] but I love their name! Go see them live and do a meet and greet. The "boys" are all so down to earth, kind, funny, happy and they love us = their fans = no joke! And yep they are a great great band. This show has some guests, including Benji and the percussionist. BBS is Charlie, Brit, Brandon, Paul and Richard and I'm their biggest fan in France. Lili Kiki. Rock on BBS!

Re-watching from lockdown in France. Great filming and sound Levitate. Blackberry Smoke always give it their 1000% all. Love it when Charlie talks to the crowd. BBS rocks. Merci, Lili Kiki, best fan from near Paris. "Everything is gonna be all right"... oh how we hope so! Thanks for the message to us. We need it.

Great Band! Great Music! I love these guys, for their Break It Down acoustic tour they added Benji Shanks on guitar & mandolin, He also stayed with them for the Till The Wheels Fall Off 2019 tour. They added an old friend Preston Holcomb on percussion for their TTWFO portion. I have seen recent shows where Benji has moved on and Preston is still there. I love Benji's contributions especially on slide and mando, but I am a big fan of Paul Jackson's playing and love his leads and fills and Benji did cut into his spotlight time. That said I love all versions of this band.

It's Easter 2024, and I feel like I've been led to this concert today. What a beautiful bunch of musicians these men are. I feel like I'm at Church right now, listening to honest truth in word & song. I'm not religious, in my words or my ways. I simply worship My Savior Jesus. I'm not sure what to make of all this, but I believe Blackberry Smoke music has shaken me loose from some chains that have been holding me down. Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame is where this band belong. Man, I feel sanctified by 🔥 Thank you Charlie Starr....

If that ain't rockinroll....I don't know what is....I love it

A band FIRMLY entrenched in the Grateful Dead and the early Allman Brothers Band. THANK GOD. THANK GOD. There has to be a God to produce such a good band in this forlorn day and age. Rock On Blackberries. And when they take lead guitar breaks...they are...(are you ready for this) MELODIC. No boring-scale-freaks here. These guys are in the 1960's Tradition of creating sub-melodies with the melody of the song. I am a guitarist of like style and I am glad these guys are here.

Proof there are still good bands nowdays!

Saw them open for Zac Brown band about 6-8 yrs ago. They were 100% better than Zac Brown. I left Browns show to buy their CD. Great authentic band as they don't need theatrics. They play...they sing...awesome!

Great Rockin' Band...Not too late for smellin' that Southern Sound. They don't forget The Outlaws and those flaming guitars.! Thank you Blackberry Smoke !!!

Não vejo a hora de ver Blackberry Smoke novamente no Brasil. Adoro o som desta banda. Dimas Augusto - Ribeirão Preto - SP - Brasil.

Paul Jackson always looks so happy to be on stage.

You create awesome music guy`s.

If they ever come around near me I will never miss them again. I promise, God. What an awesome band. LOVE THE VIBE.

My God. Jesus is back again. Charlie I will be a disciple and follow you.

Ive heard of them along time ago hope the more people hear the more they like, Rock On ♡♡

great band!!! congratulations!!! good songs and written smart!!!

Charlie starr is incapable of creating bad guitar tone. Everything he touches is the tone i hear in my head & have been trying to achieve for 20 some years but always fall that little bit short!!

First time I listened to this band I was hooked well written lyrics music flows great harmony ...I'm hooked.

Good to see a wide age range in the audience. We need the young ones to appreciate their music as well as us old folks.. Great band Saw them twice in Australia.

Wow these guys got IT!! Awesomeness

Fantastic. I saw Skynrd a few months ago here in the UK and they blew me away. I've always liked these guys and this is a great performance in the same tradition.

Thanks Levitate; great sound and filming. The outdoor concerts seem to have folks who just showed up by chance; Blackberry Smoke indoor concerts are "better" in my humble opinion; but this is a good one coming on. Charlie puts on his shades and you can't see his beautiful eyes in the afternoon sunlight. Sigh. BIG BIG Merci for the clip, best fan from France, Lili Kiki.

Allman Brothers meet The Eagles with their own style you just don't hear today.Very unique.

Polubiłem ich odrazu. Blackberry smoke, zawsze mi na górnej półce.

Long time fan, Love the sound the new Brothers bring!

Great southern rock band hope to see them live.

Blackberry Smoke is certainly the best thing that has happened to American music! They RULE!

I’m definitely ENTERTAINED by the boys from Georgia

Ouvindo direto de São Paulo em 07/07/2020

SOUND MAN GETS AN A+ FOR MIXING GUITARS

These guys are so good!

I hope Charlie appreciates what a great wingman Paul is.

I hope i get to see them LIVE someday..

I would love to play in a Fucking Great Band like these guys do,superb!!!

We're lucky enough to have an "outlaw country' station (KPIG 107oink5) that plays them-Radio lives in Monterey!

Wow, love this band.

That Charlie Starr can sang!

This was a great show ❤😊

Almond Bros Lineard skinyard oh these guys are really on their own ...... Love them.... no disrespect to them who showed the way

No doubt, these guys are the best thing that has happened musically in the last 20 years! They're just now finally starting to get the recognition they deserve! Great music never dies! My current driving playlist includes Chris Stapleton, Midland, Cody Johnson and these guys of course!

Need to get them here to Burlington, and get them on our new Station Maverick Radio, a station operating like radio is supposed to be. No tape loop playing the same old songs over and over everyday. Come on over to Maverick Country.

Happy ears.....groovy moves....

I like the new members! Modern day Skynyrd Allman bro's... Love me some BB Smoke!!!

This band are the very definition of Rock and Roll...

It don't get any better then this!

Thanks gentleman 💯
