ETSU Bluegrass Band- Redux "The Big Sciota", Leah Needham on dobro

Raymond McClain (Director of the Bluegrass, Old Time, and Country Music Program through December 2009) introduces the dobro player- student Leah Needham from Annapolis, Maryland performing "The Big Sciota". Bluegrass On Broad is part of the free evening concert series in downtown Kingsport, Tennessee held each summer from May through August on Broad Street between Main and Market Streets.
This has been so far the most popular offering on this channel and I think it needs a new, improved (technically- that is) mpg4 version to supplement the original flv version.

Le bluegrass est sous respiration artificielle

I don't care for hillbilly music, but I LOVE THIS! Thank you for posting!

[@TheGuitarrmann]

@Ronald Vincent To someone who doesn't listen to it, it's a general categorization. Not derogative. Grow some skin! Geez! Did you miss the compliment?!?

[@HotRodHarley93]

Hell yeah! Howdy from Interior Alaska!

[@moonoggin]

My fav song and she does a great job .. I like the slow down gear on here that lets me hear it like my folks played it .. a little slower. Wonderful pickin' all the way around

[@frankipoux]

She deserve a new CD..! this girl can sign and play some killer dobro licks!

[@philsmith214]

Wow just wow could listen all day 👍👍👍👍👍

[@banjerstring1304]

Super entertainment, very accomplished all...Keep it coming guys and girls!

[@1I3b]

Dobro in her hands doesn't play, it sings! Awesome!

[@haroldrull4943]

I can listen to the fiddler all day. Maybe just keep rewinding .....

[@dlagrua]

Must add Dan Boner, on guitar really plays one hot bluegrass guitar, His playing on this difficult song was extremely clean and accurate He is now the director of the bluegrass program at ETSU replacing the retiring Raymond McClain. ..

[@otpkd]

Great playing by all of them!

[@davidhopkins1786]

First class musicians, everyone of them

[@gattisburnett8008]

The best female dobro player ever in the USA

[@alan4sure]

Prettiest, too😊

[@dlagrua]

Students? That's some really great playing all around. Leah Needham gets an A+ for playing a very difficult instrument. Reminds me a bit of Uncle Josh Graves. The banjo and fiddle girl are really good as well.

[@Grahamgusbull]

Absolutely brilliant!

[@DrStich]

And mighty fine Guitar break in there!

[@dlagrua]

.....and I must say that was a great original guitar solo by Dan and of course great mandolin by Ray McClain, the former director

[@mcav3270]

A surprising difference, kinda' enjoying. The girls sure can handle their instruments!!!

[@bluesriot2]

i love that she mentioned she learned it from skip hop and wobble , i saw Jerry and the boys do it live when it was released , that night was insane, a small theater that held about 75 people , we were speechless is was so incredible

[@erwinschonfeld8975]

NOW THAT'S GOOD MUSIC!!!

[@RandyHooHa]

Can't fault this. Outstanding!

[@colinsalter3516]

Great job!

[@bazthehandyman]

Great job

[@robertshawmarsh6172]

Bluegrass = wonderful !

[@whozis2]

I believe that the actual tune is The Big Scioto, named after the Scioto River that runs from Columbus to Portsmouth, Ohio. It is alternately spoken and spelled as The Big Sciota, The Big Scioti, and The Big Scioty. (Scioto is pronounced locally as Sy - oh - tuh).

[@VeterusTV]

This is really good.

[@michaelhillman]

Very nicely done!!!

[@bumpinbudhillman6680]

Superb

[@harveyblake8362]

LOVE THE DOBRO

Girl on the banjo got r done.....

[@scsongs]

Good golly Miss Molly!

[@steveandulsky566]

That's what I'm talking about!!!

[@dlagrua]

Excellent playing all around and a few went on to professional careers in music. With the retirement of Raymond McLain Dan Boner the really good guitar player is now the director of the bluegrass music program at ETSU. . Leona Totukaki is now a bluegrass player known as Fiddling Leona and travels the world with her band. Haley Stiltner on the banjo and Leah Needham on the Dobro all found pro bands to play with for a while. Haley is joining the armed forces while Leah according to her Facebook post is now living in Nashville and is a ballroom dancer. Wish that she would play Dobro again. Can't track down Danny Stewart on bass but there is always work for players of his talent. Wish all these young people well in their chosen careers. . They were certainly great in this rendition of the ETSU Bluegrass pride band.

[@sireugenecourtney5797]

You Tube search *Leona & JP Mathes - Tokyo*

[@DanPurdy1]

If you put Leah Needham into search, you can find a clip of her ballroom dancing. Tall, slender, elegant, in a fantastic outfit, and graceful.

[@Toteke]

Thank you for helping me put a name to Haley's face! I've seen her play with the USN and I think she's brilliant. Really love seeing her play because she's having an absolute blast.

[@alan4sure]

Can you make a living ballroon dancing??😮

Mr. McLain is playing the mandolin, not the fiddle, as listed at the conclusion of the video.

[@tpeterhern5480]

Maybe I could go down there n get my PhD in Bluegrass «! Seriously !

[@ised-5239]

Dobro rolls are like banjo rolls.

[@tomelder6028]

[@marianpetko7732]

Nice music viete o tom, že DOBRO vynašli bratia Dopierovci, prisťahovalci zo Slovenska a založili fabriku na tento nástroj Dopiera Brothers ?

[@wadenewberry9834]
