Simply yes

she kicks some ass

Yep...i didn't realize i was doing just that... till i saw your comment..she takes you away...

jdcrowe82 try billy strings, I think you’ll agree he’s even Better than Tony rice

@@guitarman1477 I've heard a lot from Billy Strings. He's great, but I'm afraid I can't agree with you completely. I greatly admire Billy for his obvious talent, but he lacks the ability to convey the deeper, more complex emotions. It's a very special ability that is lacking in most of today's music & across all genres as well. While Billy may have more musical scale knowledge & more technical speed & ability than Molly, he will never be able to hold the audience in the palm of his hand purely on vocal performance alone. He has to learn how to "let go" emotionally when he is performing. He even lacks some of this ability in his guitar playing. It's all about the dynamics. Speed & technical ability doesn't mean much if you can't make the audience "FEEL" what your playing. He's still young yet & has plenty of time to grow some more musically. He will no doubt, develop this ability over time, but for now, this keeps him off of my top 5. This ability was something that I've seen Tony Rice demonstrate time & time again. He could do it with just his guitar & he could also do it with just his voice. Molly shares this same unique ability. Trey Hensley also shares that same ability although, he is not as well known. Listen to the old Jim Croce recordings of just his voice & two guitars. Jim was a really good example of someone who possessed this same ability.

I kind of agree with you about billy strings, he hasn’t the experience of tony rice, Brian Sutton, but, time will tell. Molly Tuttle is a revelation

@@guitarman1477 Yeah man, Billy will definitely grow into his own over time. He's still doing some musical "soul searching" for his niche. Molly has found her Niche & all that's left for her to do is nourish it & give it plenty of room to grow.

Someone on another chan comment said she sounded a lot like Emmylou Harris. At first I didn't hear it, but she actually does. Very, very talented woman.

Yes. I started watching her for the guitar techniques & stayed for the voice...

The clarity of her words is wonderful as well as her pleasant tone quality.

I second that.

Yeah, found her just looking for guitar flatpicking vids, then watched more of her stuff and figured out she is national treasure. That voice AND the guitar skills. Going to see her end of August. She is ridiculously talented.

Amanda, I feel just like you do and I teared up many times. I have been away from bluegrass music for many years and I really missed it. I just played a big festival for the first time in 15 years and it felt so good. I met a woman from Japan in Washington State U.S.,who was a real good guitar player and bluegrass singer. You reminded me of her. Enjoy bluegrass music, you have good feelings for it.

@@TyeeHox Thank you for your heartwarming replying. I have been passing through many genre of music such as country, bluegrass, blues, jazz, or celt music, rock, and even classic. But now I realized that after all my most loving genre of music was a music what I have met at the first time. Yeah, as a matter of fact, I had known what the most I love music is from the first. May your and my music journey goes with happiness from now on.

Hi Stephan, it’s micd with 2 Beyerdynamic MC834’s directly into a tascam HS-p82. The guitar is a Preston Thompson guitar, made in Sisters, OR. I believe Mr. Thompson passed away not long ago.

@RosemollyTuttlegmail I am attending your concert with Tommy Emmanuel in St Albans on the 25th of January. Huge greetings from Norway.

Exactly!! Very well said!

Well put. I was seeing the same but couldn't characterize it nearly as well

It really is a perfect setup for musicians who know what they are doing & pay attention to each other.

Your heart talking and not your brain 😀

yup - she's the royal, queen of geetar pickin!

Sounds like a SCAM!!!!!!!@RosemollyTuttlegmail

I was introduced to her captivating talent at the billy strings 10/31/23 show ... You missy, have the it ... Keep on keeping on

Scott Johnston Thank you, Scott. It helps that the performers were not only amazing, but they’re playing really special instruments!

@@StephenSchauer Not many engineers would have the confidence to use a spaced pair for an acoustic trio where everybody sings at some point. You, however, placed great trust in them controlling the dynamics of their performance. They delivered, and then some! Whilst the result was exceptionally good I suspect this may have been one of your easier gigs;)

@@barrydouglas6276 Thanks for your comment! This was actually the last show from that series that I spaced. There were a couple of tunes that showed the limits of the ORTF. Lesson learned! Check out the Richie and Rosie concert, as it's got the pair as close as possible.

@@StephenSchauer We could bore the fine people of RU-vid with almost endless discussions regarding recording options. Both this and the subsequent link you provided are extremely well recorded acoustic performances. I really hope that no-one (yourself included) read my comment as implying poor recording technique but rather that the performers have to understand how they will sound in a recording. IMO your skills recording acoustic performers are absolutely top notch. Keep up the good work, we will enjoy it ;)

Thanks for the kind words on the recording. The performers were so good - they really knew how to work to the stereo pair. I tried to do as little as possible to their sound.
