I’m glad KZbin doesn’t show me thumbs down as I see it. Just discouraging to people who put themselves out to social media. The band is amazing!

Cuz they are fat

[@jaredbarnes7181]

I've listened to this 100 times today.

[@buzzerking]

Song is so repetitive you only need to listen to it like twice to have heard it 100 times.

[@jedclampett6466]

It doesn't get any more real than this..... fantastic

[@mango9087]

Reading Grapes of Wrath, and they're at a dance in the government camp. This song was mentioned, so I looked it up. Reading the dance along with hearing this electric, happy, enchanting music made the scene so much more real! I get why they were so excited to dance when the music was this good!

These are some of the most talented musicians I’ve seen

[@shuushirakawa]

So this was the music I keep hearing in cartoons when it's about chickens.

[@UnstoppableNick69]

Aside from the majestic interpretation of this piece I can't help but realize that 28 people disliked the music above. I can't even imagine how sad and sour are the lives of those 28. I pity them.

[@charlesmerchant5752]

Micheal is just one of those guys that you can honestly say was born to play his instrument.

[@nikeroach]

blessed with a gift, and using it to bless others.. dont get much better

[@Alix777.]

Can't stop watching this video, three days ago I didn't even know the word "fiddle", I'm from Europe...what an incredible musician, his music makes me happy

[@Iheartdgd]

Cosi that is so cool :) it makes me happy too. I love how universal music is, anyone from any culture or any part of the world can understand and enjoy good music. This isn’t necessarily the music I listen to on a daily basis but I enjoy it very much nonetheless and it always puts me in a great mood.

Trivia: This tune was first published as a piano rag composed by Joseph Daly 100 years before, in 1910.

[@patriciajrs46]

That's so cool. They look a bit alike and they can both play very well. I love Michael's talent. Thanks for sharing this.

You can see the joy in their faces when the other one goes off on a riff. Both are great players, but for my money Michael's playing is more inventive and improvisational. Not a knock on Hunter because I could listen to him all day too.

Imagine being that good, then meeting Michael Cleveland and getting schooled!
