Jason and Benjamin Todd are 2 of my favorite musicians and the funny thing is that their genre of music has never really been something I enjoyed but those 2 artists have such real and raw talent. Phenomenal song writers and singers.

One of the artists that come to mind when I hear people say, "There's no good music coming out these days.". I hope to see him play someday because he is one of my favorite players ✌️

Hey there. I am a folk singer. I was so inspired by your music that I wrote 2 new songs, one is called "The Wind" and the other is called October Wind Ron Delby. They are also on you tube. Love the picking and singing.I would love to meet you someday. Im down in Virginia

Its amazing how @JasonODeaWest will transform my mind to another time. Thank you Jason for the great music as always.

Been cursed and blessed to ramble for years myself and don't see any end in sight. It's been pretty great discovering JDW and his other bands and having some modern ramblin tunes to go with the old folk songs. If he ever does a show wherever I happen to be, I'll have to go check it out.

Love Dea, he just keeps getting better and more refined.

Wow...what a lovely cut! Thanks for sharing!!

I always find a song by Jason at the right time. This one was perfect.

I love the song...so good

You’re amazing. I’ve been following your music for a couple years and it never lets me down. Makes me feel many emotions. We appreciate you!

I really like hearing a fresh song just after it's finished, thanks for sharing.

Another great one mister

Thought the thumbnail was a new movie trailer for Hugo Weaving. Was surprised that it was actually a folk music video! 😂 Song was great! Happiest accident I've had this month.

Great song writing Jason and picking. Emphasis on the song writing. Just incredible, poignant, lonesome, continuity. Coupled with the charming melody the song pushes you to emphasize with a wanderer. Just found you, you're going to blow up not a single doubt in my mind.

How didn’t I know about Crabtree. I’m from Bangor. Love Jason and now love your channel!

Great song!

The crab tree I'm a cancer!! I love your work

my main squeeze hates how much i love this song

"O'Dea" is the man. How can I pay you back good sir???!!

I think I remember that fellow from Applegate valley in Oregon ...

Never gonna understand how Jason Dea West and Lost Dog Street Band and Matt Heckler don’t have more listeners.

We Had To Try - Jason Dea West Old lost highway, you call my name. Not afraid of the snow and rain, staying here I just can't breathe. Old lost highway, you call my name. I've been on this rambling spree, I don't own no land, no land owns me. The trainyard's cold, but the ride is free. And when I'm gone, honey let me be. I've got lovers near and far, and I won't tell you who they are. Tomorrow morning we're going to Maine few more days, I'm back on that train. The southwest came for everyone, you can burn to death in the desert sun. The snow is falling up in Vermont, kiss me again before I'm gone. Cuz when I'm gone, I'm long gone, long gone. I'm bound to face this world alone, I miss your smile and your mountain home. Sit me down in your sky-high throne, tell me not to go back on my own. The snow is falling right outside, you're baking Jean some apple pie. Soon it'll be time to to say "goodbye" We both know we had to try. It's back to the land of the sun, stay at home and clean your guns. Soon I will be gone again, kiss me one more time, my friend. Well, west top's called my name, supposed to leave but I wanna stay. Leaving here I just can't breathe, seems the joy out weighed the pain. What seems a joy outweighed the pain.

Ben n you sound so much alike bet yet are so different

hard to pin a ramblin boy down but man hard not to think ya should hold gal @3:18 extra tight

This is all a gimmick... he wears skinny jeans and eats tofu...🤮
