I am flatly amazed. I had never heard of this woman or the band. I stumbled into another video of them doing a cover of Birdsong by the Dead, one of my favorites, and their version was unbelievable. I saw this and clicked on it. Wow. "Looking for a Home in the Country," starting at 13:44, sounds like Alison Krauss meets Sarah Jarosz being backed up by the Jerry Garcia Band. The bassist is Phil Lesh caliber and the pedal steel player is damn good, but I have never heard jam-band and bluegrass harp! What a talent! Their harmonies are tight and interesting. The drummer looks totally bored (except when he is singing), but he should stick around for the ride, because these guys are going places.

God, she's so badass.

I first got into this amazing band when i heard them doing " Mountains of the moon, Dark star, Wharf rat and St Stephen all in one take. It TOTALLY blew me away. Also Mikaela doing " Bird Song " with Bob Weir and the Wolf bros { I was transported to another world }. TOTAL RESPECT.

Mind Blown away, unexpected surprise. What a beautiful sound, band and energy. Makes this guitar guy want to pick up a bass, such a feel, dude has tone and time on his side. Mikaela is a rose in a field of grass. New fan.

The amount of talent in that room is astounding, this has to be one of my favorite sets 🤘🏽

Makaela and the Southern Star... I hope you read this. I listen to a lot of music. This is something very special. Id consider this a masterpiece. Absolutely love this video. Im on Lucy fyi. ;) Thanks for sharing this.

This is the ULTIMATE Jerry tribute!

i would love if this was on spotify

This is great. Reminds me a lot of the grateful dead.

Bodacious to say the least

2024-02-14: It took quite a while for the potential in the organ to reach Jimmy Smith. Good instruments still have untapped potential. I’m not always crazy about what KZfaq algorithm cues up for me, but sometimes I get really blessed, like this time (But there are too many ads) I’ll be listening to more of this and recommending to others Forget the cowbell, .. MORE HARP! I gotta have more Harp! !

Lovin Mikaela & the Southern Star,😍💓🔥🔥🔥🕺💃🕺🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Damn!!! So glad I found this! You guys are fucking amazing!!

This gets better every time I listen to it, and that’s been many times already. Probably 3 times just today.

Truly beautiful music

Don't know what it is but I absolutely love this woman's voice and love every tune she covered from the Dead. Bird song she does is totally amazing.

Dark Star Moon Bird just oozed into this and she took off with it. I'm in love. With all y'all.

Love you folks! You have a Magical sound! Just beautiful!

This set brings me to smiles or happy tears pretty much every time I’ve heard this little 40mins of redeeming perfection. Everyone is lovely!

I think I'm in love

Damn, just so outrageously beautiful. I fell in love with you after hearing your Elliott Smith cover - he’s kind of one of my reasons for being and yours was the most beautiful cover of one of the most beautiful songs. I couldn’t imagine it could ever be as wondrous. But it gave me the chills. So I’ve been listening to your music and all of you guys are just fantastic. So blessed that I found your music! 🙏🙏

Enjoyable to listen to. Her voice is a sweet sunshine melody. I am sure that an actual Dead Concert would have been such a blast for all of them..

You guys are so good I can't stand it! Dead vibes on their best nights through and through!! Just beautiful 💜

Don’t ever change this

I love this show. Mikaela Davis & Southern Star 🌟 are just awesome players and they groove so well. 🤩👍

Haha, I found myself fighting down the urge to applaud between numbers :) Mikaela, you and Southern Star have it GOING ON! I look so forward to whatever it is you'll be doing next! Bravo.

Just revisited this again and as I previously replied it gets better every time I listen to it. Saturday Morning is a great song. Liking the guitar intro especially.

Omg Miki the new songs are SO GOOD. 😍 Give the people what they want and and record that second LP already!!!! I can't fckng wait!

This stuff is incredible ! Heavenly sounds...

Wow. Very nice, your voice is heavenly and Kurt Johnson is the best musician I’ve ever met.

that plantasia shirt is amazing.

If they ever come this way, I'll be first in line. Great sounds!

This set truly makes my heart smile. Thank you! #Grateful

Every deadhead should listen to Mikaela

Wow!

Holy Holy high Holy!!!!

Best gift I've got in awhile! Life may be sweeter for this

WOW!!!!!!!

She's an angel.

Also just a great set. Cinderella is my favorite, and Home in the Country a close second

My cousin had a black Silvertone / Danelectro guitar like that. We had a garage band in the 60s. Love that tone! 👏🏻👏🏻

Love the bass players plantasia shirt

Giving thanks to the source. Much love.

Feckin' quality from this young ladt! Love toya from West Yorkshire!!XXXXX

I love that she’s all natural

So good...thanks MD & SS...think I'll be playing this video for a while........

Just fantastic ! Like a warm soft welcoming blanket wrapped around me. You have something special here so best of luck and stay the course. And enjoyed the videography and the Americana feel of your mom’s place - which complemented the music nicely. The last tune was also a nice subtle energy boost with a little edge to the warm blanket. When the “world opens up”, please see if you can get on the bill at Daryl’s House in Pawling, spoken from a fellow New Yorker. Cheers!

Absolutely fantastic! Quality music and musicians , something that is disappearing these days. ✌😎👍💀🧠🌌♾🎸🎼🎵🎶

I loved this concert. You've got a new fan. Subscribed. Bell rung. I'll be looking for yas when next you tour. You so fit in with San Diego's roots music scene.

Incredibly gifted woman. Love this. Takes a person back. Thanks, needed a "restart.'

Have watched this so many times, if it were a VHS, I'd have burned thru it by now. Great music, when the pandemic dust clears, please come play for us in Bloomington, Indiana, would love to see you. Hint: Buskirk Chumley Theater, you would love it.

So many Thimbs UP ❤❤❤❤

Mikaela your music is what some of us Artist in visual art use for inspiration. I'd like to add, you do know you are an Angle in this world don't you? I'm proud of your white light that shines bright. : ) Tell your Mother for me, I thank her for creating you, and supporting you. : )
