I am a tremendous fan of Tuba Skinny I can't get enough, but this one takes the gold medal. I have watched and listened to it many many times yet every time my tears flow like Niagara Falls. They are NOT tears of sadness but tears of joy. I say to the group you have made an 85 year old man feel 25 again. Keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't know what's wrong with those that thumb downed this video. But watching and listening to this makes me wish I were privileged to be there taking this in in person on such a beautiful day. This is the life!
Given this tune, Barnabus Jones is the winner of the most appropriately dressed Tuba Skinny band member award. I just returned yesterday from the two Hillsdale shows given in New York. The country-side around the Taconic State Parkway leads you to some of the most lovely and well hidden of New York State places. Not since my many years ago trips to New Orleans and the occasions to hear the Neville Brothers have I been happier to stumble upon such wonderful music.
Australia here - thanks a million for "the great American songbook". Whty an amazing culture you have. OK, kudos over.....go.......create more!!!!!! MAGA!
I just happened upon this video. Never heard of Tuba Skinny before but immediately I was captivated. Excellent group of musicians. Such a lazy tempo which grabs you and won't let you go.
Luxury to be awake in the middle of the night, 5 000 miles away from you (Sweden), and enjoy what you are playing. You are all great. As someone else wrote: "my father would have loved this" but that goes for me as well (I am 67).
Only just discovered this wonderful, authentic band that is Tuba Skinny! I'm telling all my friends about this music - it is so well played and sung. Shaye and Erika are fantastic, but the strength of the group is their ensemble playing. We must support them through this difficult pandemic, and hope that they with come to play in the UK in 2021. Keep playing Tuba Skinny !! We LOVE it!
Just bloody stunning .. has 'Closer Walk' ever been closer to heaven ? No wonder it's at over 700,000 views. Only Jason Lawrence on 6 string banjo & Robin Rapuzzi on washboard , w/ Todd Burton's tuba backing it, but each a perfect compliment to those glorious horns - Craig Flory, Clarinet - the Shaye Cohn, cornet - smooth Barnabus Jones on tbone. And Erica Lewis lets her heart sing !!! Ten years ago they dreamed they wanted a 'brass band'; five years ago, a sunny day busking in New Orleans.
I just recently discovered this amazing group. I feel extremely lucky for having done so. This particular selection always brings on the tears, but they are tears of joy. I am amazed by the people walking by who are completely oblivious to these magnificent performances. There are those who are so mixed up in those daily little messes that they call their lives they can't appreciate anything. They have my sympathy. One more thought, despite the great number of after I was born before she was and almost 2000 miles between us I love Shaye Cohn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of the best versions of "Just a Closer Walk with Thou", if not the best, full of sensitivity. I would very much like it to be played the day I leave for a better world.
The singer is beautiful but when she smiles (not often enough) she is just radiant! Yes yes she is. Please smile more often and my heart will absolutely melt. 😍😘
Very impressive voice & music great lucky people joyfully listening Tuba skinny. Thank you for joyful memory jazz & camera person too. keep smiling with lol politely & safely
I see many here longing the see Face to Face of our Lord Jesus! When He calls you, you will be with angels surrounding you in Glory. This is one of my favorites too. Lia.
dont fergit the revelation at the final full end sez u get to be a pillar in the temple dat is da lord of that holy city dat cum down OUT of heven (dont say it go back) - wont it be luvly to jut stand there ALL of eternity,,,,,,,,,,,oh luvly luvly luvly luvly to just stand there - so bad that he only chooses a few to receive his gift of faith so they dont not burn in the darkness of hell forever,,,,,,oh the luvly luvly luv of jesus
I like the way she comes in half a bar from the the head of the phrase then lingers at the end - superb timing to have you sitting on thhe edge of your seat in suspence -her voice matches the instruments
