[@cillid23]

First time hearing this guy I was shocked when I heard his pipes. Looks like yet another gem from the Appalachian region

[@Chyeahokay]

If you like one, you’ll like them all. Most have the exact same sound.

[@chrisezelle]

😎🔥🎵👍🏼

[@jamesbernard6841]

Dudes alright idk that it's anything that's exceedingly impressive

[@freebehindbars8654]

He’s not bad, definitely a generic sound here recently. Tbf, he’s a lot better than I am at singing and playing, but that voice seems to be changing, hopefully for the better.

[@schill1994]

Definitely better than that red headed fatty with the “people like me” song

[@sderden1]

Wish top 40 radio would take notice and realize what real talent looks like. This is real talent.

[@that1guy899]

Unfortunately for us, stuff like this (what we recognize as real talent) doesn't sell to the masses so we'll likely never hear it on the radio.

[@trickyricky591]

Thank you I could not have said it better

[@Cardnotics-anonymous]

Pure talent

[@benjaminmarsolek6867]

@@that1guy899 which is exactly why I don't listen to the radio anymore. there has however been a resurgence of incredibly talented artists. you just have to look for them, we have Colter Wall, Zach Bryan, Tyler Childers, Drayton Farley, Charles Wesley Godwin, Benjamin Tod who is or was, I don't know if he still is a member of the lost dog street band, there's nick shoulders, Colby Acuff, Oliver Anthony and many others. I believe we are at a turning point in the music industry where people are starting to get tired of the cut and paste, corporatized bullshit that we've been stuck with for the past one or two decades, that combined with the fact that its becoming easier and easier for this sort of artist to not only have a large platform to perform on, but make a living off of their music gives me hope that we will see actually talented artists take the mainstage in the near future.

[@dionst.michael1482]

What, you don’t like Taylor Swift?! Bahahaha!

[@AngloCelt88]

You're dripping with mountain soul son. Don't change.

[@CaffeineDogg]

God bless the KZbin algorithm for letting me find this video

[@JohnnyGrandin]

I agree, all the way from Sweden

[@SPINUNDRUM]

Amen brother. Hee haw forever. ❤

[@micahwilson3783]

it’s too bad most people can’t recognize musical talent. everyone just wants to listen to music that makes them feel tough

[@Xboxnoob97]

It’s pathetic but honestly more people know good music then you think they just wanna fit in so they won’t talk about it they only talk about garbage radio hits and rap with horrible messages

[@loxx101]

Or maybe they just like different stuff to you? 🤔

[@trailfinder932]

Real talent here!!!!

[@shanehansen2141]

"Boy, that was a miiiighty fine a-pickin' and a-singin'!" This is GOOD. This is what should be on country music radio.

[@tomanyprojects]

This is better than the vevo version. More grit and feeling

[@Talkingsmack420]

Listen hear ol son don’t ever let mo dam body tell you that you are not somebody special you have IT brotha keep singing your heart out we are listening

[@Woodiness]

This is why I really like country music. Some of the best singing coming from someone you’d never think would sound like that lol

[@karenwalsh1143]

That mountain brandy sure makes these Appalachian folks talented!❤

[@davidholton9667]

So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song. Hello

[@MynameisJeffTV]

It's like a man made lubricant for their pipes.

[@Adam-nv9zo]

Folks, this is what real talent looks like.

[@RodneyNicotine]

What an absolutely phenomenal song! Glad to see the younger generation going back to true country music.

[@TylerM86]

The song writing here at such a young age is incredible

[@michaelcouch75]

Often imitated by some, but there is something about the Appalachian region that produces some amazing vocals which when you hear you can feel the authenticity!

[@chrisshipes1153]

It's the pollen 😂 halfway joking but actually not really joking.

[@richardrobinson9534]

They're half pollen, half albaman.

[@seanmyhre1305]

They all sound exactly the same. Not a fan

[@whiteyfisk9769]

Except now everyone tries to sound like that snake in the grass Tyler Chidlers. Ehh

[@seanmyhre1305]

@@whiteyfisk9769 oh, is he a snake in the grass? What did he do? Interesting

[@2rdn274]

These Virginia guys are just on a different level. Love is guitar playing and singing.

I was listening to this mountain Brandy song and here comes Maddie my black cat... Stepped on my phone and hit the subscribe button.... I guess it's a sign I'm going to leave it alone.....💫

[@tommycash9]

When I was younger and playing music, I always had a song list taped to my guitar in that exact same place. I love this video. I'm old now. Go for it Colby. You are great.

[@tanyatalkstoomuch]

I love every single thing about this song. It is on repeat. And when it's not playing out of a speaker it is playing in my head ❤️❤️❤️

[@amazingmontanalife1301]

Instant fan!!! Gonna play on repeat

[@trickyricky591]

I've had it on repeat from the get-go

[@calistathompson5538]

This song makes me sad. But in a good way.

[@icebrakernh]

With the more likes and subscribes we can all give this young fella we can make it happen for him.

[@douglashall2141]

I really like this song. As usual they tell a story. And the tune actually resembles something from Bob Dylan

[@hernanmartinez6492]

You play very well. I congratulate you. Greetings from the mountains of Colombia.

[@KWN-Cards]

Amen young man. What a voice. Come on people, 51k views but only 2.72k subscribers. Hit that subscribe button, I did.

[@suncunha]

I love the way this guy plays. Excellent skills.

[@Marionothing]

RAW.. He's pouring it out right here. He doesn't even know how good he's doing. They can't produce this soul 2.0 no matter how swifty they get.

[@RedBeardDevelopment]

I have a feeling his voice will get more rich with time. Cheers brother!

[@AVoltigeur]

Stay independent. Don’t let record labels alter your authenticity.

[@ambieandjohn84brittain8]

Great singer

[@hernanmartinez6492]

The simple fact of being in the middle of nature making music is enough to feel full namaste.

[@hernanmartinez6492]

I love the mountains and folk music, I congratulate you, I live in Colombia.
