Where’s hunter’s moon?

[@Unidentifying]

Drifting is one of the best masterpieces ever conceived on the guitar

[@Souza16x]

10:02 - Drifting. My absolute favorite, inspired me to start learn to play guitar, and was one of the best descisions I have made.

[@Stretch2726]

Glad I searched your name on KZbin. What a joy this showing was. I discovered art of motion back in 2009. That album has been on repeat since. Got me through college, medical school, and residency. Now a staple in my home and enjoyed by the kids. Looking forward to a new album and hopefully a live showing.

[@Mermaider]

Wow! I'm glad I read this. I thought I was the only one who's been listening to Andy's music since college. I wish you and your family all the best.

[@simonerighini]

When I read this comment I realized it's kind of the same for me! Going back in time I bought Art of Motion because... I couldn't find it on Napster! Since then Andy's Mp3s are following me and like in your home also in mine my children are listening to it! Thanks Andy for your magic!

[@claaarkeeencs]

Anyone else who came here just for Ebon Coast? Incredible

[@ashorayaastifan7253]

What a guy! Unbelievable. Almost no words. Except....what strong and gentle hands you have... perfect control.

[@dragonnasxavier3473]

Gorgeous! Not sure why KZbin wouldn't ever pop this up until more than two years later, but letter late than never. Some of those songs are pretty nostalgic for me, thinking back on listening to you as a teenager. Don't ever stop being you. :)

[@andrewlong2523]

This feel just like back in the art of motion days of KZbin and I thank you for your craft. I’d listen to your music through so many of my younger years and now it’s something I come back to to remember

[@trevuski7739]

I grad high 08 06with captain Jv basketball injury. I played this song thinking the worst and the best..now 15 years later my mom has cancer . Your amazing. Thanks 😊

[@falklochmann7555]

If all the people out there had just a small part of the soul and heart that you have given us all these years the world would be a very peaceful place. Thank you very much Andy

[@joshuk141]

This man is a world treasure. His unique music is truly incredible and has inspired so many people just from his online performances. Thanks Andy 👍👍

[@gits8184]

Drifting, Common ground, She, Art of Motion - the best things I ever heard

[@-Turmeric-]

Can't wait to see Andy in McKinney in April!

[@jcisaacs]

Thank you for posting this! For people like me who might realistically might not get to an in person concert getting to hear amazing music like this done as a show is a real treat. You can't hear me clapping but the appreciation is still there :-).

[@jayr526]

If electronics could only clap and scream. I saw you in Nashville. That's a memory. I can pull this up anytime. What a blessing!

[@kmsongbird]

JUST discovered you exist TODAY because you posted something my guitar idol Phil Keaggy commented on and it sent me on a rabbit trail to find out about you. I mean if HE admires you, who wouldn’t, right? So glad I searched. I will listen to ALL your music now. Not only are you a wonderful artist, you seem to be a wonderful human being, period. Makes my day! Singer here, guitar teacher of only ONE, an 11 yr old wanting to become a worship leader. We are both learning fingerstyle guitar together and it kicks our butts but people like you will inspire us to keep on picking away at it!! God bless you.

[@TheRyanSales]

The showcasing of the appreciation and love for each song for those 7-8 seconds after each song is everything.

[@kmsongbird]

APPLAUSE AND CHEERS AND SHOUTS of LOVE AND ADMIRATION!!!!! Wish I could help all your fans on here let you know how much we loved watching and listening!!

[@zaftgeraldine2731]

7-14 is a new favorite of mine Andy, hearing it again years later. I saw you in Eugene, OR. in 2016. Unforgettable! Glad to see you're touring England and Ireland this year.

[@McFreedom_af]

Andy's music got me through some tough times overseas over a decade ago. It's always so great to watch him play.

[@megatron4547]

All is right with the world when Andy McKee is sitting with his guitar in his lap playing tune after tune! Thanks Andy!

[@waldemarbieniak8689]

A few years ago a friend showed me you on KZbin and your technique, the way of playing and songs with a fantastic sense of harmony, melody and rhythm, and at the same time I dream of this sound to hear your compositions played with the whole band or symphony orchestra, maybe someday we will hear you together with I wish you hearts and best wishes from Poland !!!

[@enjoitherhythm]

You're so incredible. This is so healing and beautiful!

[@victorwalsh1901]

Thank you Mr McKee your tunage and time to make that new tune say something speaks to me only for new sounds can be made with understanding a sound that hasn't be tunes or detuned yet.om sorry when I played along with you I made some mistakes with baritone. It's B ounding structure I believe ING. I'm sorry for your father passing. If there's anything I can like not smoke just tell me again and I know what we should do. I'll quit again. I always just hoped someone had done something by now so I keep doing when I know I'm catching breath. But with all your heart you say so. Can I do it if you'd play with me and maybe teach me some more

[@DustinFurlow]

Never knew about the Blue Liquid tuning story! So cool that one of my top favs happened almost completely by chance.

[@lord461]

Thank you Andy!

[@alexcorll90]

Wow, thanks for putting this up permanently Andy!

[@josephkogut7472]

Commenting to boost Andy. Mckee Fever for life! My favorite songwriter and performer. Thank you for spending the time in between songs to talk about your life, experiences, stories behind songs, etc. You always inspire me to always keep pushing as a guitarist and human. Love all around

[@leopinascook]

you ar my inspiration for more of 10 years. thanks Andy. you are the best !!!!

[@IVMRGREENXX]

art of motion was the last piece of physical media that i have ever bought. even at the time in 2009 buying physical media wasn't really a thing anymore but i was so blown away by your skill and sound that i wanted to show my support and not just download/steal the album. It has been the soundtrack to many moments in my life and i continue to be inspired by your talent. Anyway just wanted to share that in case you read your comments. I enjoyed watching you play these songs that i have heard so so many times. Thank you sir

[@redtrooper7622]

Although it was weird for you playing to a camera instead of a crowd, we could still totally feel the emotion and passion of your music. Thanks for all you do!

[@marysefonta8371]

How great pleasure to listen to these Songs on Friday Evening ! Thanks Andy !

[@shawngordon1716]

This rendition of For My Father is really moving - thank you Andy.

[@esteban7396]

Love u Andy 😊

[@THELAPTAPPINGGUY]

The best guitarist ever!

[@vincentbellamy]

Bonsoir je suis Français et je vous suis depuis un bon moment maintenant je me souviens de la première fois que j'ai écouté une de vos compositions c'était Océan je crois je suis resté la bouche grande ouverte c'était tellement beau, mais mon message n'est pas celui-là mais c'est celui de voir plein de personnes reprendre vos morceaux et je trouve ça vraiment classe car ce n'est pas tant qu'ils veulent jouer ou sonner comme vous non ils veulent jouer de la guitare et ça c'est vraiment la récompense pour vous j'imagine vous avez amené tant de personnes à la guitare c'est très émouvant . Il ne me reste plus qu'à vous souhaiter tout le bonheur du monde .

[@pratyushdeb]

Dear Andy, thank you for doing this. I have never seen a live concert of yours. Have been a fan of your music since a friend of mine played me drifting from KZbin four years back. Much love from India.

[@kenlandsman6289]

Awesome as ever Sir !! Admirer of You since mid 2008. Soothing in a very rough economic time for Me, back then and still. Since '08 - '09...

[@stevepethel6843]

My son's showed me you on you tube many years ago and I couldn't believe the sounds one man could achieve. With 1 acoustic guitar. That was many years ago they are grown now but this video still shows how easy you make BEAUTIFUL music .You are talented ...God continued to bless you Andy

[@jeanlaurentpyndiah2634]

Thanks so much Andy, you're a great inspiration and you brought so much to the acoustic guitar community.

[@minjungsong5992]

10:02 drifting 15:54 seven-fourteen 22:59 everybody wants to rule the world

[@slennie]

This is what we call music. Lovely playing Andy. Especially dig your rendition of Ragamuffin!

[@TheTwoThumbs]

The Ninja Wizard Jesus of acoustic guitar playing. If this doesnt inspire you, we can never be friends. I first stumbled upon his playing when the vids from 14 years ago recording in a church (?) came out. I mean, you can watch him on mute and its still epic! Im a professional drummer but dabble in guitar as well and can honestly say, people who play at Andy's level (basically nobody) have put the work and hours etc in, and deserve all they get. Plus your stuff is just soothing and beautiful and always interesting to listen to. Thanks man.

[@macd7743]

Fantastic!! People really need to start sharing this! I'm really glad I found this. Thanks for the lovely show, Andy!

[@Marconik11]

Always loved your music Andy. Hope my children and their children do it too. Your a legend. My favorite Melody Composer of all TIME.

[@rytai8597]

Clockshop! So awesome

[@dgalinko]

i could listen to blue liquid all day. see in NY Andy!

[@nataliecarlin9088]

I absolutely fucking love Ouray. Havent even listened past it yet. The bassy notes on 36.03 to 36.05. Two seconds of musical magic to me . Thanks Andy , I love everything I've heard from you

[@clyde6298]

Man Andy, my guitar journey over the last TWENTY YEARS has included you. We've come along way, sir since that first drifting video. Well... Better part of 20 years anyway

[@harambe_andy]

That Everbody wants to rule the world is so beautiful! I love that song and hearing it from you Andy is so wonderful, Thank You!

[@nemisistosociety92]

Ive been listening to your music for 10 years now... Thank you for all of the inspiration over the years! Your music has strongly influenced my guitar playing and has gotten me through alot of really hard times! Cheers man🤘😈🤘

[@Mermaider]

I know what I'm doing for the next hour and a half! Thank you Andy

[@leaf69]

I haven't re watched this since live, and seeing the silent transition between For my Father, and RyLynn ... I forgot. ❤ I'm crying just as hard

[@miksUSA777]

THANK YOU for this Andy. Love from the Philippines 🇵🇭💕

[@danieljames500]

i can’t imagine what it’s like for you to be playing in front of a camera instead of an audience, we really appreciate it though! thank you for sharing this with us

[@FaxMachinee]

Rylynn had me hooked 15 years ago and the total plays are definitely many on everything. You’re a bigger legend than you realize Andy. Thanks man.

[@TheRealAndyMcKee]

Many thanks! I’ll do my best to never realize it.

[@FaxMachinee]

@@TheRealAndyMcKee No way Andy is this really you!? I love you man!

[@neonlegend683]

I first seen you play drifting waay back in 2006, and now I get relive it. ty so much!

[@mrjonnymac]

You know you are investing in your guitar talent when you invest in a Greenfield. Wow what a sound. The photo together when you came to SLC is a treasured possession I will never forget. Such a great live show!!

[@kylebrintnall921]

amazing concert!! Been a fan since 2011 and you inspired me to start playing acoustic guitar, which has been a huge joy in my life and love playing fingerstyle. Your music is just as fresh, mysterious, and beautiful as when I heard it over a decade ago. Thanks for bringing such incredible music into the world Andy. Hope to see you in concert again sometime soon

[@jameswalker739]

When I listen it’s timeless

[@ceciliacastro7962]

Greetings from Venezuela

[@CL_Audio_Tuning]

Andy! You should do this again live with a Chat so that you can get feedback and interaction with your fans! Your music is epic and incredible! So awesome to see this. Been a big fan of yours for a long time!

[@SS-ob5nf]

I got the real energy going on here listening... wow!

[@ZacharyRodriguez]

Finally hearing the story behind your songs was wonderful. Over a decade ago when I stumbled on "Drifting" during high school. You were among the only musicians I listened to then. Excellent performance. Very nostalgic for me.

[@Brixiomendoza]

For My You are the Best acustic guitar playera out there

[@danielludlow8960]

It's good to finally put a voice to your beautiful music!

[@nuoxy]

So awesome

[@vorkvoyd]

OMG, I was just thinking about you, you are a F@$#%^ Legend! I'm so happy you are still playing!

[@hiddeninplainsight52]

Because of you, many new/early and advanced guitarists will be inspired to write amazing music. Loved seeing you live in Denver a few years back. Absolutely unbelievable everytime I hear you.

[@shoobsean]

thank you andy, ragamuffin was amazing

[@wsk7102]

i don't know why this video have only 7400 view. it's very impressive.

[@kmsongbird]

46,279 while I’m watching a year later. That’s a pretty good leap from 7000! Give it another year and it’ll easily be a million. :-)

[@willstatmen9591]

Beautiful and touching, best music in the 🌎 love every moment 🌹❤️🔥🤟🏻

[@uncas19typhoon]

thanks Andy. It's a while since you recorded this and though I hear your music all the time, your in my playlist mixes, it is good to see you again and hear you speak. I've been able to be at several of your shows and love your composition, playing style, and enthusiasm for the music. Peace.

[@hilla42]

To answer your question: I am on holidays close to Labin in Istria/Kroatia, looking just after sunrise at the mediterranian see and the islands across, listening to your concert and yes: your energy tranferes here and I hope it transferes back to you from here! Greeting from Lars

[@Mermaider]

Thanks Andy!

[@PericolososporeJerzy]

Superb concert, thank you Andy

[@mikec6014]

So much talent brother nice tunes keep up the great work never stop

[@John-km2uw]

From one Kansan far away from home to another Kansan: your music awesome. Thank you for doing a KZbin gig with stories. 'Looking forward to attending a future live concert out West...j

[@AsafEfraim-u8m]

Hi Andy I hope you recorded this consert for a better bass and less rev All the best to you and folks out there. This is beyond words.

[@pauldelazzer84]

For My Father 🙏

[@SeanClarkeMusic]

Bravo! 👏👏👏✨🎉

[@supatina36]

Amazing guitar skills! I love it how you tune those pieces in different tuning arrangements.

[@tombranighan4569]

1:10:00 eric johnson... you have a gift similar to him! Spell-binding

[@whydoihavetoaddachan]

Man, that noodling around at 54:00...that sounds awesome!

[@hazyshade9648]

Ooh my favorite made it on here. Ebon coast

[@DanDeVitaMusic]

God. Damn. Brilliant. It is always amazing to listen to you play. So excited for the new EP!

[@i_got_worms7106]

Would love to hear this guy do a rendition of Ship of Fools by Erasure.

[@sneakyfred]

Beautiful songs and playing, but between each song all the re-tuning puts my nerves on edge. :D Love it, Andy! Your explanations are wonderful, too. You turned a very impersonal situation into a welcoming and joyful session.

[@mountainman6172]

Looks younger than when he first uploaded Drifting (2006ish). Love this

[@mememe163]

Wow! What a treat! Thanks!

[@Drufi]

World class guitarist, wouldn’t be surprised to see him in a best of list if not already there

[@jayr526]

This guy is great. But how do you create a unified list. Is he better than SRV? I love both of their music, but they are so different, that I really can't compare them.

[@darkbol10]

I am so glad to know even the gods of fingerstyle can snap the strings when changing tuning ....

[@buildingamemory]

man, this is a great performance

[@fernandosantosvieira]

Muito bom 😄

[@haleysdad2004]

This has been amazing Andy! Thank you!

[@MinhMinimal]

Andy, just want to let you know that you were my first inspiration too and I have learned to play quite a lot of your tunes. Thanks for the musical inspiration during my college and first jobber years. Now I'm very much a veteran in management field. Btw, I need to relearn that Drifting and Rylynn's intro too. Quite a change!

[@Jorinio_98]

💛

[@AQ-xu6sw]

WOOOOW!!!!!!!

[@pyart5261]

Andy McKee - Я желаю Вам всего самого наилучшего! Жаль я даже близко не умею играть так как Вы!

[@gordonchang8574]

I saw Andy playing at the townhall 10/2/21 NYC - he used a baritone guitar since his other guitar was damaged by the airlines - that Baritone guitar is super nice. . He did Rylynn on it and it was so great - like so different - I wish someone has a recording of that version or Rylynn it was so amazing and different than anything else I can find. It was the first time hearing it - a new convert - and it brought tears to my eyes. .I didn't even know the story

[@stephenkuzmak4501]

I saw him 10/4 in Gettysburg.... two days after you. Andy is amazing.... and there's nothing like Tommy live. I hope they tour together for many more years.
