He never went to prison that songs wrote about his good friend who got busted for meth and did 5 years in prison got out then went right back in to do 20 years for some dust in a baggy. Dig the channel brother 🤘🤘🤘

Billy Strings is part of that new generation of country & bluegrass artists that have truly something to say and play, like Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childers or Colter Wall. Check out those 3 guys if you haven't.

@CorneiliusLibowitz 4 года назад

Dude...this isn't even the tip of the iceberg. No jailhouse tats, just a tat enthusiast. A lot of his songs relate to his growing up in MI and how some of his friends ended up like what's described in this song. He's arguably one of the best young (late 20') flat pickers, singer/songwriters currently out there...in any genre. And he's a metal head....used to be in a metal band, but his heart is in the music he grew up with....bluegrass. And a hot-rodder, which is always a plus. He's real tight with his dad, and has a few youtube vid's of him and his dad in concert. Saw him live in 2018 and totally blew me away, and now i'm hooked. You really need to check them (rest of the band is kick-ass as well) out on youtube..... . 1989 1200 Sportster..........

@mobilemechanic7700 3 года назад

I grew up on blue grass, the best explanation I’ve heard was this, “blue grass is nothing but country speed metal”.

@demon_3x 3 года назад

It’s saddening how many people don’t see this. Especially in Billy’s music.

@joefrank5274 2 года назад

Perfect explanation! I always said Country Punk!

@markyates1116 3 года назад

Hell yeah Billy Strings!! I think the better version was the one shot in a house.. amazing

@spikex8 2 года назад

Agreed. I also like the version where's it's him and two guys standing in like a park or something. He goes hard in that one.

@mattpayne7054 3 года назад

I've played the guitar for 20yrs now and I've always enjoyed blues and rock but I recently discovered Billy Strings and I've fell in love with bluegrass music! Watching him play puts a smile on my face every time! He's a very gifted talent!

@joshs199 3 года назад

The original version of this song. He does solo on a green couch. Is what you should listen to. I think it's almost 10 years old now in 2021

@DustyBleeker 3 года назад

That original video with Shaggy standing there is the best version.

@dilligaf700 3 года назад

@jacksonhaymore7615 3 года назад

He said in an interview one time that he write this song about one of his very close friends who had some trouble with meth. He's been playing guitar/bluegrass since he was 4 years old. dude is gonna be a LEGEND

@victorkreig6089 3 года назад

His father is one of the best bluegrass guitarists in the south, he inherited his old man's ability and then became a metal head and turned it up to 12

@tanyaraven9492 2 года назад

I think he's already a legend. I've been watching his YT videos for about a year and I read comments. So many people say they've never been big fans of bluegrass, but now they are. Same here!

@rickt1951 2 года назад

Everyone talks about how good Billy is and he is but his bandmates are also good. This is one tight band.

@wingsofsteel3246 4 года назад

I highly doubt you "suck" , it's just the bluegrass/string players for this kinda music gotta giddy-up on another level. Very nice song / reaction, cheers

@ajohnson153 3 года назад

If you like this you should check out Turmoil and Tinfoil by him. I've heard it described as bluegrass Pantera.

@dougpotosky4102 3 года назад

Billy learned to play from his Dad! His music is going way beyond bluegrass. Even touches on Sun Ra. A legendary jazz space player. Now his concerts are selling out. Winning awards. And Turning the music world on its head. Plus he seems very humble about his music. We need more musicians like him!

@CorneiliusLibowitz 2 года назад

We already do....Molly Tuttle, Sierra Ferrell, Sarah Jarosz, Daniel Donato, Larkin Poe, Samantha Fish, the rest of the guys in his band, and the list goes on... They're just not known to the masses....

@cwfan2 Год назад

Billy is only 30 yo. His dad, Terry Barber, taught him to play. Watch a video "Family Strings" Billy and his dad, Terry, playing together. Terry is an amazing guitarist. Also watch "Billy Strings at Shady Grove". Billy is very knowledgeable about Doc Watson who was one of the early inventers of thumb picking guitar. Billy plays and tells to story of Doc Watson and the history of Bluegrass. Billy is amazing. I'm a huge fan.

@chuckward8650 3 года назад

Billy is a northern Michigan boy. He wrote that song in his teens or very early 20s. His daddy put a guitar in his hands i believe before he could walk. Lol. His father is his influence and his teacher. Always been a stellar young man. I don't believe he's ever gotten a traffic ticket let alone any jail time. Just a little info from his neighbors. He was born with blue grass in his veins

@shezarae8827 Год назад

He wrote the song for a contest, and somebody played the video of him playing it at home and it just blew up and everybody started asking him to play it.

@ajohnson153 3 года назад

I think I read somewhere that this song is about a friend of his who got into drugs. Billy learned from his dad who is no slouch on the guitar himself. There is a series of videos of shows where he plays onstage with his dad and they're just amazing.

@Dcenteio 3 года назад

My Dad took a trip to a buddy’s funeral and as requested in advance by the deceased, played live bluegrass music there in memory of him.

Billy played in a metal band in his early teens and can kill it on an electric guitar too. But he’s never been to prison.

@sgenetti77 3 года назад

While he and his band's playing are epic enough, what's transcendental about his music is his songwriting. He shatters all the lyrical tropes of country/bluegrass, and it's all his music. I haven't heard a trite or contrived song from him yet. This is one of those "aha" moments when you realize that the song has taken you out of the genre and has become something that stands on it's own merits. I actively disliked this style of music for quite a long time as I play guitar and mostly listen to more distorted music, but this guy has got me burning up his tuneage. He's fucking gnarly, epic, and a great "escape from the meth trailer park" story. His Dad is a good picker too.

@eharper7 3 года назад

My favorite song that he's performed is Beaumont Rag. I encourage you to take a peek, when you have the time. I think you'll enjoy it.

@JasonJebezSam Год назад

He wrote this song about a friend of his. He never went to prison for 20 years himself. I'm not sure if you caught exactly what he is talking about, but its about methamphetamine.

@howlinhog 3 года назад

A good hook comes many times from a true story. And that's what this song is. Not about Billy, but a friend of his.
