Her steady ascent over the last five years had made my life better, and made me feel better about life.

I've really gotten in to Sierra Ferrell in the past year. What a wonderful talent! This recording is fantastic! Thank you

This girl stole my heart the first time I heard her. Now I can't stand to listen to anything else, and I used to be into hard rock? Now I'm learning a completely new style ( for me)of music. I perform a lot of her songs in public and everyone loves it! ❤

I am soooo glad that I stumbled across this. What an amazing gem!!!!!

I can't thank you enough, this is pure gold. She is my favourite artist by far and this early material is so pure and beautiful.

My goodness!! Thank you for archiving this wonderful solo set!! ❤

Just discovered this wonderful talent two days ago, thanks to KZfaq. What a delight! The breadth, the range! Going to one of her shows soon. Great to hear some of her early work. Thanks, Austin, for posting this.

If you love Sierra buy her Bandcamp stuff it's the real deal. Tidal Wave, Snake River Wine, Little Bird, Rocket etc. it's her best work, get onto it.

Saw her the other night. Took the whole family. Great show. Cowboy country bluegrass!

wonderful - like listening to a bob dylan bootleg from 1961!

Oh my goodness, thank you, Austin!! Finding this has totally made my weekend! I’ve been listening on repeat! In my opinion, the BEST of Sierra 💫

Honestly can't thank you enough for this recording. Probably like many others, I 'discovered' Sierra through KZfaq's algorithms and her transfixing performance of Rosemary on Gems. Since then, Sierra's star has risen and she's near her second produced and polished record release, which is absolutely wonderful! However, there will always be a home for her stripped down performances of earlier years. For you to share this with the world so out of nowhere... its just wonderful. An unexpected gem. Thank you!

I can't thank you enough for this treasure, Austin.

Thank you to infinity and beyond for taking the time to record and share this for all to enjoy!!!

Started following her in 2018 when I first encountered her “Rosemary” video on Gems on VHS. Been kind of obsessed since then. Seeking out and saving every KZfaq video of hers. This is a gem. Thank you for sharing.

what a treasure sierra and this recording are! thank you austin and sierra!!!!!

Great to listen to a whole show rather than just the busking videos which I first started watching a few years ago, then she got the Rounders record deal and the album and was then lucky enough to catch her in the UK at her London gig, awesome night. Just hoping she comes back to the UK soon. Thank you.

Almost hard to believe but I’ve been LOVING SIERRA FERRELL for ten years!! That’s crazy but she used to sing with 600 Pounds of Sin and somehow I think she thought of that name. Her tiny self with two big guys. Lol The Empty Glass and Third Eye Cabaret Social Club Thursday night listening room. Oh sweet sweet and beautiful so beautiful

Thanks for sharing this! 😎

This is fabulous. Thank you for recording it all those years ago and then sharing it with us online. Sierra's sound was already fully formed, though she's polished it in the interim. Truly one of the definitive entertainers of our time.

This is so great! Can a copy be had? What holiday gift! Thank you so much. Who else could sing Bedelia?

Thanks for recording, preserving, and sharing, this awesome bit of audio history. I've been loving Sierra's music for a few years now; nothing else quite like her...

This recording is a godsend, thank you Whoever you are for posting it for all of us Sierra freaks. She can do no wrong, love it so much.

I love all her concerts and vids, but this recording is her best recorded album! Pure and simple.

Dude, this is unbelievable! Thank you so much for this. I'm flying 6hrs away to go see her play. And will see here again in the summer. What a great recording. damn thanks for sharing

Thank you so much. This is very very special. You knew straight away too obviously. Given her journey after this, it's an important recording.

Austin - thank you for sharing this treasure of a recording.

Who is the guy she's performing with? Anyway, it's fascinating to get this clear picture of the kind of performer Sierra was then and how she has become. She was already great, but her music has gotten deeper, emotionally, and more complex, musically. The last performance on this recording-"Goodnight Irene"-is most prophetic of where heart art is now. In the last couple of years, she has felt freer to let her voice be as beautiful as she can make it (which is about as beautiful as a human voice can get). This version of the Leadbelly song couldn't be more beautiful. And I have a feeling that performing this song for this recording may have been an important experience for her, one that helped her to grow as a musician and as a person.

Amazing! Thank you

Austin, what a jewel! Many props for hearing her on the street and asking her to perform...AND getting a lovely recording of it. It really displays her depth of Anerican music and her catalog of covers. Who is the gentleman playing with her? I feel I've stumbled on something really special here. Thanks for sharing. This fountain will give endlessly.

It sounds like the fiddler on her Bandcamp releases which were my first love, yeah who is that guy? This is a time capsule. I'm smote yet again. The purest form of Sierra, playing for a handful of people clapping politely and not a clue what sort of history they are witnessing.

Love it

Thanks for posting this.

She’s singing “Goodbye Sweet Liza Jane” 😮😭🥰

Oh yeah and the early Rosemary....

And as long as I'm ranting while no one listens: hear her Bandcamp stuff and you'll know she makes Bog Dylan's singing and songwriting sound like an old dried up dog turd.
