This tour was my first concert in Grand Junction Colorado. I fell in love with everything about Colorado. My ex told me he always thought of me when he would hear this song. We tried to rekindle 6 months ago. He died today.

She has that power in spades.

[@mustangmikep51]

the beauty of her soul touches me...deeply I wish I could melt into her and share her beauty + experience the joy in her heart/ Namaste.

[@brianc1651]

Stated so perfectly. I wonder if they can truly comprehend how much their music touches some of us.

[@midyearguru]

I love watching Bonnie Paine as she gently rocks back and forth to the groove of the song. What an amazingly talented band!

[@tullsongs]

Exquisite ! Elephant revival, Mandolin orange,The lowest pair...the future of folk music's in good hands .

[@TheRunner1759]

Didn’t know a saw could double as an instrument. Awesome!

[@lancieuxsky]

So utterly beautiful.

[@razorsharpe3371]

Music is alive and well with talent like these folks.

[@justpaulette]

[@EtienneRichard1]

I agree with everyone's comments about the music. Exquisite. I'd also like to put in a rave for the people who did the audio and video recording.

[@JukeboxAndy]

Wow! I just about fell off my chair when she started to sing! Great recording, I have Folk Alley recordings on auto-play and the quality is really A+.

[@Onyx8Moon]

Exquisite…. Angelic….. Sublime….. Bittersweet.

[@brlyderder4095]

the saw is my new favorite sounding instrument

[@Alms14Alms15]

Wow! Que voz deliciosa!

[@javiersanchez-rubiollamas4650]

Apetece amanecer así.

[@dannyquijada1797]

Great body!! I mean voice

[@VitalityMassage]

Her voice and look is very Natalie Merchant.

[@beced3440]

+VitalityMassage Absolutely : the similarity is astonishing - anyway , same talent! :-)

[@VitalityMassage]

+be ced If you try to sing like them you'll probably feel it coming from the middle of your head! It vibrates my pineal gland. It was so trippy for me to see a "saw" player for the first time - Hippy hillbillies - buskers' in downtown Asheville.

[@beced3440]

+VitalityMassage hi there : the sound of the saw remind me in a way the sound of a strong wind: "haunting" could be the right word, isn't it?

[@VitalityMassage]

be ced Sounds like the sound they'd make in a scary movie when the goons are coming out!

[@tymark1]

Can't wait to see my sister again cus I wanna show her this. Her voice is very similar to this and she sings Irish folk music. Thought her and my dad jamming one time was a CD and I ran into the library and saw them. I was stunned.

[@simonemanuel3344]

beautiful flow!! can anyone help me with the guitar chords??

[@JenniferWelchcht]

d minor, Bflat major, F major and C

[@timhill2849]

Ok , asleep now

[@jamesbuda7365]

Not the same without law on the violin.

[@mustangmikep51]

she's outstanding isn't she?

[@trevordraper2955]

[@sparkytheskater]
