Katie - this was really special. I mean it. Since filming, I listened to multiple albums of yours. There's so much gold in there. We're all rooting for you my friend!

You know it’s good shit when Michael drops an F bomb😂🤘🏼 thanks for putting me on Michael!

I love when I get a heads up about an artist that has flown under my aging radar.

Man that's not even an overstatement. I don't typically indulge in this genre/style at all but this girl's voice is beautiful... the control ... the passion in her voice...😮

I’ve been listening to Katie Pruitt for over 5 years now. Absolutely incredible vocalist, songwriter and performer. Her talent is out of this world!

WOW. just WOW. Arresting voice... dynamics, phrasing, arrangement....hits the same as Chris Stapleton did the 1st time I heard him. Great songs... and songwriters... transcend generations. Are relatable to all. This is art first. Not product. Art. We know this because we feel _connected_ to it, not because it is or could be popular, but simply because it's pure.

Im not even 3 minutes into this video, and this girl deserves to be a star more than half of the famous singers out there. So much talent. Thank you Michael for putting stuff like this out there.

The soul and emotion in that voice is the definition of hauntingly beautiful.

Crazy how real talent like this is nowhere on the radio. She's a special one for sure. . Thanks for posting.

She's one of my absolute favorites. Brandi Carlile brought her on stage in Nashville a few years back, and I was instantly hooked. Going to see Katie here in Colorado a few weeks from now, and can't wait.

Mike I got to say, I appreciate you checking out new artists. Alot of the reaction/guitar channels only want to do the popular artists that are going to get them clicks, but it’s good to be able to discover new music through people like you. 👍🏼

Katie opened for American Aquarium, twoish years ago. Walked into the venue with no idea who she was. I was less than 10 feet from the stage in a venue, not yet half full. She walked out onto that stage and changed my life. No lie. The best gift I've ever received from a stranger was BJ Barham introducing Katie to me. AA is easily one of my favorite bands, that night she owned the stage.

She's playing in Dallas next week. Excellent. Tickets purchased. Thank you sir!

45 seconds in and i have goose bumps from head to toe. for real. amazing talent. was not expecting this.

Ok. THAT was amazing. Her voice, so powerful, fragile, breathy, controlled , emotive. Love getting in on the ground floor. She is....❤

She is wonderful. While listening I kept thinking of Eva Cassidy whose music I absolutely love.

Been listening to Katie Pruitt for a couple of years. She's awesome

@Guitargate - Michael P, the emotional response from you on most of your videos just keeps me coming back over and over. I discovered you with your “Hi Ren” reaction and have been coming back ever since. Keep letting the emotional response flow. Plus you give some great musical breakdown of these songs as well. You know who you are, please keep shining your light and showing your talent. Many, many blessings to you and your family.

You are so right. I've taught my children a lot of things and have learned a lot more from them. I have changed my mind about many things by seeing life from their perspectives. The world has changed quite a bit in my 70 years and we need to change with it. CS&N's 'Teach Your Children Well' comes to mind. Thank you for bringing Katie to my attention. Brilliant!

I met her and got a photo with her at the 2022 NC Brewers and Music Festival. She was so good and sang with so much emotion. I told her my daughter loves to sing and I really hope she can be like you some day writing her own songs.

OMG!! What a phenomenal singer songwriter. That performance moved me to tears……beautiful just beautiful❤

This is one of the good things from the internet... beautiful musicians right there. Thank you for reacting and showing us this. Mind blown!

Goosebumps...Absolutely beautiful.

Thank you for spotlighting this tremendous new talent.

That voice!!!!! ......... got to go check out more of her.

Truly amazing 💯 There's a long distance between our hearts and our heads.

Literally in tears right now!!!!!!😢

OMG John, it’s rare that a song brings me to tears, lots of real tears. I don’t know why, but this one got to me. Wow! Picture this, my wife and I are least old enough to be her grand parents - maybe older. Katie Pruitt’s Georgia grabbed me by my emotions and held on.

I'm glad that you put out this video. It was truly lovely. I will check out her other work as well.

So cool to learn of such talent and inspired lyrics close to where I live. Will definitely be sharing her thanks to you 👏🏻

Thanks for sharing. This is definitely up my alley and I'll really enjoy checking out her music.

Absolutely loved the song.. and your reaction Michael!! 👏

Thank you for posting this. Her voice is incredible, love her ❤

Thanks so much for this, Michael. She's awesome. Thanks for sharing.

thanks again Michael for illuminating something that I would have otherwise not seen.. cheers my friend all the way from Australia.

Following her for a couple of years now....amazing voice and stellar lyrics. First seen her do a duet with Marcus King doing Homesick...something about her voice made me have to check her out. She is incredible. Glad people are coming to the party!

One of your best, appreciate real people, and honesty

This was awesome. Wicked beautiful song. And deep.

Well this is a wonderful find. Thank you!

That was simply beautiful. Heartfelt. Outstanding Katie.

Wow! Thank you for this!

thank you for the discover !

Great great songs I love the words. Touch is deep. Keep it up Katie.

Very nice! First time hearing her I’ll have to check out more. Good guitar gate community recommend, Good stuff! Lifetime member, haven’t logged in in quite a while. Got to get back & continue the lessons.

Loving this!!!

I love the technical videos on the channel, and equally, the life podcast sessions ❤

That song is beautiful. Love the voice, and the arrangement of how the strings and guitar melt together.

Holy frack! What a talent! Thank you for amplifying the signal on this!

So happy you do videos like this- I am a FAN of this sound. A lot of great moments in this tune. The way she used the strings gave me a little Amos Lee vibes from his Live at Red Rock performance with the Colorado Symphony. But she def made a vibe of her own here. Love it. Definitely gonna be following her.

Thanks for sharing this gem with us!

Thank you Mike, This crawled right across my skin.. That voice and expression.

What a stunningly beautiful voice.

Michael, once again thank you so much for opening my eyes to another fabulous performer. Your videos are a window into other worlds of music, and I am forever grateful for the visions.

Well done, Michael. Great commentary to a beautiful, well-written song.

Oh my, what a beautiful song! Thanks for sharing this!

That was a wonderful song and your summation of it was right on the money.

This is beautiful! Love the way you shared its impact on you. I just subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to what's next....

So glad you played this bro 💕 just made my night knowing music is in safe hands moving forward!!! Damn she's AMAZING ❤

Thank you for recognizing an incredibly talent! She is so so special. 🙂🙂🙂🙂

I love your channel! I've learned so much about music and you are promoting excellent artists, It's beautiful!

So glad there are still artists out there with creativity, originality and sincerity. It makes me hopeful that there is still life in music. Thanks you for sharing.

My God.....thank you for this. Thank you for your appreciation and for sharing her with us. ❤

incredible. Thank you Michael for continuously showing us these gems.

Brilliant ❤ More than a passing glance to early Patti Griffin..

Can't thank you enough for this! Thank you for bringing Katie Pruitt into my world, what an amazing artist and voice!

This is why i subscribe to this channel! Reactions & Breakdowns of some of the best talent out there. You have introduced me to so much great music, I can't thank you enough!🙏

wowee wow - thanks for covering - i always can tell by the tingling numbness all over LOL yep did that! Amazing Katie! and accompaniment was superb arrangements....what talent!

I love, love love you. Your passion, not only for music, but for your humanity. This song touched me. So glad to be introduced to this fabulous artist. I love your channel.

wow - thank you for introducing her to us !!! beautiful song ♥

Radio needs to play this and more artists like Katie! I stumbled upon Abby Anderson a few months ago and she blew me away. Check out her backyard/acoustic recording of her song, "First to Hit the Road" as it is awesome. Katie's voice, musical style, and lyrical quality are top shelf! Michael P, thank you for this video!

Right there with you on this one. If there is any justice in the world she will be huge.

Amazing, simply beautiful. I cried instantly. Thank you for sharing this. Just wow.😢

What a beautiful song, I got actual goosebumps. Thank you for sharing, and thank you Katie! I just ordered my first guitar of my own and I hope one day I can create something beautiful like this.

I have love how you see the world. You are spot on - A Real Gem!

Wow! Thanks for the new music

So much soul and emotion in her voice. Love it.

Another master musician(s) you’ve introduced us to Michael - I’m in awe of the song and slowly adding new layers with the strings is just heavenly. Hope I’m lucky enough to see them live. Massive respect for them creating and you sharing….

I have tears and I don’t have all the words to say how beautiful this is.

Thank you Sir!!! Great find.

Yep! Holy shit! This was so special. Lost for words. Gotta give it another listen.

Such a powerful song. I'm sure we've all felt this at some point in our lives. What great lyrics, vocals and story telling. This song hits hard!

Thanks for bringing Katie to our attention - I’ve already played ‘Expectations’ twice today and bought it on Bandcamp along with the preorder for her new album due to be released next week. Powerful but beautiful voice!

Excellent song. You know it’s good when everything else drops away and you focus only the song and how it’s making you feel. Great voice, great lyrics and some great composition choices that are subtle, but very effective.

Michael, great review, incredible artist and never having heard of her before, I will be following her and her career from now on. You know it's so true, and sorely missing in today's landscape, but the greatest gift you can give anyone is acceptance. Thank you so much for introducing me to this artist's work. Shout out to Cody Warren as well.

Stunned. And watching for more. Thank you for the introduction.

man, she's amazingly talented! Thanks for turning me on to her music.

Once again… 100% agree with you, Micheal!❤

Beautiful song, great authentic take on the song!

Damn this was great. Will look her music up for sure!

Thank you for the tip. She is great!

Wow. Already in a class by herself. Pulls you right into it and keeps you there.❤

Absolutely incredible!!

Well, this album will be on repeat for the foreseeable future. Thx Michael and Cody!

Reminds me so much of Patty Griffin. Love it.

Wow, just wow. That was amazing. Head over to listen to more…

Thanks for turning me on to her music. It’s bold, impactful, and deeply poignant. Great tone in her voice. Great arrangement by adding just enough strings to hit ya in the heart. Beautiful song. Beautiful song. You can’t help but to just be blown away into silence. It’s a great awe inspiring moment.

Wow this blew me away I’m from the UK and it was so beautiful.

You are such a kindred spirit man… it makes me feel not so alone in my deep love of music when I see someone get so excited and emotional when they get surprised by discovering a new artist who is so gifted, and you can hear it in the writing, in the arrangement, instrumentation, playing, in everything… and you know this is a career artist and you are an instant fan. That’s how I feel… it’s a feeling of connection that’s spiritual that’s hard to explain to people who don’t care about music in a really passionate way. Love that you’re sharing this with people and am an instant fan of yours. ❤

I don’t know how I got here but am grateful to have found your station and this amazing artist. Absolutely beautiful!

What a find! Thanks! *i'm all choked up*
