@@Facetiously.Esoteric you're the one in the comment section of a musician you don't even like, maulding about a guy that has raised money to fight racism and publicly supported anti racist groups claiming a number that could have any number of meanings to any number of people means he's in the klan. You make actual anti racists look like a fucking joke. Go be cringe somewhere else and stop hurting your own cause you fucking joke.

@@Facetiously.Esoteric all the black musicians I know hate people like you.

I hear that I can't even pick mine up after he plays!

🤣🤣🤣

💀

Never give up music is love to be shared and enjoyed.. stay safe 🍻

Lmao

Watch that kind of talk it's still a Secret

Can’t say that ... let him play aloud with no dealings ... no devil can touch this

LOL ! shoot yeah , Billy Strings is def. skilled

He has indeed - just look at his markings.

He doesn't play like he sold his soul to the devil...I think it was more like Satan sold his to him!

Amen preach !

Not really 😂

Thats far from the truth

She is an exceptional guitar player from a technical point of view, and her cross picking is second to none. She is also a bit cleaner than Billy in terms of raw flat picking, and I suspect her accuracy is a little sharper. Billy gets right in your face with his energy and comes at you in an enjoyably aggressive style. He can probably play faster than Molly, but I also feel his longer solos tend to play out over a single chord. I'd rather listen to Billy but if it came right down to it I would find it impossible to rank one over the other. They're great guitar players and that's about it.

I could only dream about playing as good as any of them, but to say that out of everyone Molly is the only one that can keep up to Billy. thats just funny@@biggerissues6085

Molly is far more pure talented. She's not breaking any sweat over this little guitar wizardry.

... and the bass player (?) just keeps on a-going. Brilliant.

It's gentlemanly respect. Humility and passion. Billy Strings has it all !!!!!

Thanksgiving morning and this song is exactly how I feel. Billy strings.....legend

... and with proper respect and humility- he out- guns everyone standin on that stage! The young man is a class act and,I believe- a true artist..

Plays well with others👍👌🕯🤩😻💪😉😘🤯🥳🤠😳😻🙉

Ron Azbill gives me hope for the next generation. I used to see Sam Chatman (original ) do this in Mississippi in the 70s. ❤️

There’s

absolutely!!!

You don't know the dark hands of greed. This boy will tear himself when he learns the sweet smell of money. It always happens. Greed is god too which every other god answers to...it's called capitalism...some foriegner can rip every local business from your hands and you will hallelujah for any walmart with in a few hours. Greed is unstoppable. As long as you can stuff food in your face, you will be comfortable with rape by business, because your local god has convinced you Jesus is a Capitalist....your down fall...you will blame on others...but deep down you worship greed. Awaken to the "blessings" of that god. Christianity is the Christians mask of "fuck you, we worship greed".

NOT

Yep that's right 😎🍷

Thank God luv Bluegrass

For sure, Billy has me listening to blue grass again for the first time in 15 or 20 years.

Tom Wahl me too but as a guitarist trust me...Metal and Bluegrass are the hardest and bloodiest types of music to play. This kid just flat out thrashes bluegrass! 😂

Welcome to bluegrass.

Did you find him through that reddit post? All i've been doing the last couple of days is listen to his music. Truly a genius!

Me three. Metalhead, who enjoys Billy's playing as much as I enjoy Thrash and other metal genres.

Tonetwisters she’s an angel

Guess you haven't seen Erica yet... Tuba Skinny...

I just said nearly the same thing!!

Nah. “Bolly.”

Priceless!

@@erniewms1 yes short for bollocks

Actually, it does

Guy who wrote this song was Sam Chatmon, played with the Mississippi Sheiks who recorded it. Billy does about as good a rendition as Iv'e heard.

You've got today's best flat pickers playing together here.

No she's not, but she's very good. No need for hyperbole.

is that what thats called "cross picking" nice... I did not know that

No she is young in pucking good but thats it she needs a better stage performance borderline hippie

r u fuckin stupid she is literally one of the greatest flatpickers of all time

I kinda wished they’d fall in love but I hear he has a girlfriend. They would’ve made beautiful babies

i came here 2 min ago from watching Molly at Delfest. she is the bomb !

I started learning the guitar at 50. I hope to play as good as this.. Sometime before the kids read the eulogy, anyway 😁

It´s OK, this time...

Anono mous I’m sure you’ve seen Marcus King, as well. If not, he’s another spectacular young talent.

right behind you, 43 years and used to Jam in Asheville, NC - Billy "Burn 'em Up" Strings! I'm afraid Molly is going to have problems with that style latter in life-

You’re throat hurt to

Butch Davis why is she gonna have a problem with that style?

@@LicksoftheLegend She won't. She'll be fine

No way does she!! Each time I watch Molly in clips like this, and marvel at her awesome musicianship, and see that killer smile of hers, I can't help but ponder the following: Why couldn't Molly have come on the scene while I was still out touring, & playing Bluegrass Music!!! I would've loved & treasured sharing a stage or two with her!!! ☺️ What a tremendous talent, and I'm quite sure, a very sweet young lady to be around. Ron Abilene, TX.

Molly is superb.She can live with anyone on stage.Theres not a better bluegtass player out there.

Fun fact I read she won a few major blue grass awards for her song writing and playing. As a metal guitarist for over 20 years I am in awe of both of them. Playing at this level is just unreal

It’s a claw hammer style. She actually has a video that walks through the technique. And I agree , she sounds fantastic playing it.

Molly Tuttle. Now you know. The day just got brighter.

Molly is very good. Givin' Billy a run for his money.

She's as good on a fiddle banjo and mandolin her father Jack taught her and she has two younger brothers that are just as good her brother Sully plays in AJ Lee's band

The old people are afraid they might go commercial, that's why their so critical, they wanna keep this music to themselves, because its mostly about tradition

Kids like this constantly sell out though. I'd say the fears are justified

Personally I think you could match them up against any guitarists in the world and they would hold their own if not Leaving them in the dust.

Billy is the hot artist of today. You can’t leave the McCourys family and traveling McCourys , Sierra Hull, Dre Anders, and the whole contingent out of the mix. It’s their roots and all are fantastic musicians pushing each other’s envelopes.

these two are among the best musicians today, period.

It's her band.

You mean to tell me the guy who plays music for a living is a fan of music?

It’s a Howling Wolf song fir your information

@@williamdillard4291 it’s actually a Mississippi Sheiks song, or at least that’s the first recording. This version is obviously a takeoff of the Doc Watson version though, lyrically.

Thanks Roger! We appreciate it

1000% agree.

I partly agree: As a cameraperson you notice in the very first second, that what Molly and Billy do is just breathtaking. There is simply no need for fancy camera moves and flashy editing tricks. But pretty often the performance is pale and lame, some musicians suck. In these cases the video staff tries to compensate.

I notice Billy has a mic inside his guitar, likely in addition to a transducer. Looks like Molly just has a transducer. Probably why Billy is louder and has a nicer tone.

Yeh she got screwed with the sound.

We are pickin’ nits here. The mix levels are controlled at the board, not by the type of mic or p/u. Just want hear everything.

she is no where near that dudes level. she plays rhythm guitar. sorry to say it. but on her best day she couldnt compete with billy in his sleep with one hand. you heard just as much of her as needed. having her any louder wouldnt have made it any better. it would have made it worse. the one part where she actually go screwed was they didnt film her solo. they got it from an angle where she was covered by billy.

@@dbspaceoditty Rhythm guitar? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hsB-pNR6stXNYHU.html

Mississippi shreiks wrote and recorded this long before Doc got ahold of it. Cream recorded it as a rock and roll song in the sixties and made it a much bigger hit.

John Y Yaussi and your point is?

When it comes to traditional music it does not matter who wrote it because most of the time were not exactly sure who did

You can never hear guest instruments....

@@KimiWallrus 1:17 through 1:52... just watch her guitar. You can clearly hear it.

@@hunterwarner393 And he's the guest....

Definitely in my top five. Check out Jake Workman! Billy isn’t just a great picker on multiple instruments, he’s a great singer, and a great songwriter. I know Molly plays several instruments as well, and she write great songs. She’s been techinv the boys how it’s done for a while now!

2:51...priceless

Perfectly said.

a fun one for sure. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sMyAoZSmnafbemQ.html

You ever seen jerry garcia play? Hell shred incredible solos while just gazing at the band. Never once looking down at his guitar

Grateful Dead introduced me to this song a long time ago. Say what you will about them but Jerry Garcia loved him some history also.

@@disprogreavette8545 Jerry also loved and was inspired by bluegrass.

Thanks as I often wondered who wrote such masterpiece

Dude. TMI

Gotta start somewhere.... I guess.

"It's all in the wrist." LOL

Tyler Cole - that's hilarious!

A DUMB ASS!

Okay... Billy is in another world.. World class...

​@wesleybullock814 you're actually wrong about who's the world class act here. She's like the op said, she has a bit more of everything. A true guitar goddess.

I loved how Billy smiled at her while playing but it looked to me like she kept turning away from him. I wanted her to look him in the eye and smile back.

And, that's the difference between a musician and an 'artist'. It should always be about the music.

Because commercial radio sucks ass.... These two are among the top guitarists on the scene today, and commercial radio hasn't played a peep from either one of them, at least here in Chicago........

Better late then never

'Molly Tuttle'... Tuttle family kids from northern Cal? All grown up ;}

Vlodec can’t people be friends without you questioning their motive?

You guys know, these two are housemates in Nashville, right???

@Vlodec A big show? 😂😂 They exchanged pleasantries barely louder than a whisper and not in the mic, the audience likely didn't even hear it. Even a friendless, cynical bore couldn't possibly be bothered by that exchange. But here we are. 😂

How the fuck did you spin this round to involve trump 😂

@Vlodec Man, you must be real lonely otherwise this would be a complete non issue.

Cigar Gypsies Lol! My wife seen me smiling at my phone and said, “No sir! who the hell got you smiling like that?” Grabs my phone, looks through all my messages, emails,...... Guess she has a right to be worried! I’m in love with this music!

My dad always calls blue grass “acoustic thrash” because it “registers in the brain the same” 😂 normalize cross genre love

I reckon so

vice versa here! Her dad was my 1st mandolin teacher.
