[@cottoneyejoe1able]

He will be be king.

[@cheryllaredo7771]

He's amazing. 28 years old. Keep that in mind.😊

[@cheryllaredo7771]

He will as long as he stays straight. He doesn't drink n im pretty sure nothing else.

[@NicKnJ0hnProductions]

Marcus King could sing me the dictionary and I'd still cry tears of joy

[@ginpepper]

So good it gave me the chills!

[@Christatum411]

I`ve seen him a few times but one time was him solo acoustic at a tiny little spot outside on the lake in Austin. He actually made me shed tears .

[@nathanialbradley]

in my opinion, this is the best cut of this song. Love the vintage microphones.

[@daviddubinsky868]

Every time he sings and plays the world becomes a better place!

[@TXbluesplayer]

Amen brother!

[@curtispartain7352]

agreed

[@dominiquecerdan8255]

Nice but chords arrangement are wrong

[@jlforehand8639]

@@dominiquecerdan8255 Please tell me more how Marcus King’s arrangements are wrong on a song Marcus King wrote.

[@jennyroller8764]

@@jlforehand8639 damn right! There is not a thing wrong with song. Except I’m not there to watch it live. ☺️

[@lakervoxx597]

Holy smokes... the blues has never been in better hands. The King is a dude!!! The way he gives Drew a second solo... and what a solo it was!!! and the King then blows the roof off with his own solo... what a version of this choon!!! You think you can comprehend how good it is... but you can't?!? 🤯🤯🤯🤯

[@jasonking4753]

Blues is alive and well with this man around. Beautiful song!

[@theojaquenoud419]

Marcus King is the among the greatest sounding guitarists AND singers, not just today but of all time. And yet, somehow, he manages to sound even better when he's in that room. Keep them coming!

[@kimmyray1234]

MOST FANTASTIC BLUES 💙, IVE HEARD, BEEN NONE SINCE JOHNNY LONG, UNTIL NOW ❤ THANKS MARCUS 💯💯💯

[@djSmokeShow]

Dang, now I can no longer say "This generation doesn't appreciate good music". Incredible nuanced performance, well done.

[@atcautoelec]

Sheer genius x2. His voice, his guitar and a superb slideshow from Drew to ice the cookie.

[@ericwatler23]

Daaamn Marcus is soooo damn good! He brings Old Blues New Blues Rock Country RnB all at the same time !!!

[@jobabs]

Drew Smithers just slays on the slide guitar. Became an instant fan of his when he was with Bishop Gunn.

[@gerardanthony9834]

Saw him with Big Band of Brothers short tour with Jaimoe. Incredible slide 1:27 tone and delicate touch. All in the fingers. He’s very talented.

[@RenaParker]

I could fly away on that slide guitar! Man!!!

[@SG13232]

Same here, saw him at my local towns annual music fest like 5 years ago with BG and have been following him since. He’s an absolute monster

[@jerrodravid5371]

The blues master of our time. Easily my favorite musician of my generation. I was always so jealous that my parents generation got to grow up listening to all the best classic rock bands in their prime. When they were young, full of life and still sounded good. Now I know what it feels like.

[@STSGuitar16]

this is 100% better than the track on the album, imo. And dont get me wrong, the album track was like my most-listened-to song for a year, according to Spotify lol. There's just even more soul in this version somehow. Love it so much.

[@dorigecko]

You can hear they were both having a great time hey. Such flavour

[@mattyj5039]

I said the same thing to a friend the other day. No knock to his studio songs, but his live stuff is just so much better. It’s all good, either way though✊🏼

[@dmae1113]

Cause it’s live… 😊

[@loritidwell3145]

Ridiculously good!! Proves GOD has meaning...

[@kimberlycoakley5603]

Its the vintage mics , guitar and amp, cannot rep the sound in studio

[@e.b.4872]

Music finally not completely dead ? We need that kind of revival. Impressive song, beautiful play, iconic singing. My ears loved it.

[@ericmatteson8888]

Solid proof you don't need volume and speed to create a powerful sound.

[@chrispotts325]

Absolutely insane singing and musicianship!!

[@colinclardy6229]

Genuinely incredible stuff. This is humanity. Soul, skill, emotion, artistry. The world is a better place for having this music in it.

[@minormunitions]

Holy smokes! I’ve been playing 28 years so I’m pretty good….and then here comes Marcus and the boys and I look like a beginner again! 😂 that was amazing, soul came screaming from those strings!

[@billcavin3554]

feels the same after 40 years of playing too..... kind of regret not learning the Cowbell or the Triangle when I watch these guys.... truly amazing talent aren't they....

[@nickstrieker1550]

Im hearin SKY DOG &DICKIE BETTS IN THOSE STRINGS

[@joshuaobrien7034]

@minormunitions Check out - Jake Kohn "Frostbite" he's 15 and will absolutely blow your mind wife open

[@SimonChampagne]

I feel you brother 😆

[@cheryllaredo7771]

And the damn voice with it! We got a clapton in the making!

[@matthewpower3062]

As a northern canadian, im gonna make it a goal to head down south and see this kid play live.

[@irow800]

I just saw him here in Michigan a few weeks ago! Not too far from our Canadian friends.

[@tedtriestech8864]

I have the dumbest music emotions ever…. How did i get tears in my eyes watching this?

[@BillBurnette]

Ummm, they call it soul for a reason.

[@arringtonjenkins]

First time I saw Marcus King was 2018 in New Orleans at the Howlin Wolf and Bishop Gunn opened up for him. Years later Bishop Gunn's guitar player and him are jamming together on KZbin, awesome moment.

[@ericmatteson8888]

How does someone so young have a soul so beautifully aged?

[@jeffpagel8178]

lowdown and funky.. so sweet

[@slavophiliak44]

Marcus is the man. If you know, you know. He is a legend in the making.

[@thesparkedbrain]

It's been a long time since a young artist excites me like Marcus does. I am ready for the ride bc he is just getting started.

[@lisahammond161]

Gives me chills, in a good way, watchin' from in Arkansas. Hope to see a live show this year. Marcus King, Aawesome.

[@aiden4884]

North Central AR here, been listening to Marcus for a few years now and he just doest stop improving! Take care!

[@haydenhamilton3169]

South AR here; he is the real deal

[@milesofentertainment]

We fell in love with Marcus doing "Summertime" with Billy Strings. We've watched everything we can find of him and love his guitar, his voice and his songwriting. Funny thing, our three favorite Marcus videos are all from Carter Vintage Guitars, one of our featured channels because it's one of our favorite channels. Keep the videos coming.

[@gorillahawkpeacock4688]

The sound Drew Smithers makes at 2:56 sounds like a man singing for just a moment. Absolutely mind melting tone.

[@philstreak2628]

the Oak Ridge Boys hat. that's how you know this man is the real deal. love to see him playing a strat

[@johnfrombrm]

It’s Stevie Ray and Dwayne Almond with Janice singing backup!!!INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!

[@myklmusic]

My mind is blown away. Man, I'm so thankful to have found these Brothers. Thank You for this Music. I've needed this for a long, long time.

[@jonathanvancelette172]

I had the pleasure of seeing Marcus King open for Chris Stapleton last year. Instantly became a fan. The whole show was consistent goosebumps. Absolutely incredible

[@Jtime0101]

Piedmont, SC's finest, aging like wildflowers and wine

[@samuellepage7813]

Here he is .. the one and only Mr. Marcus king. One of the best signers / guitar players of the modern days right there!! Nooooo doubt

[@fretboardfatfingers8774]

Stunning all the way around. The chord articulation, slide work, vocals and ending riffs. Boy how I wish I was a REAL musician like these boys.

[@Tonetwisters]

We ALL do ... and I've been playing 60 years ...

[@marcelosilva6914]

It's never late to learn true music, so if you really want go for it. I guarantee that you're not gonna regret it.

[@AndreBehrens]

This video made me a fan.

[@JohnBelley86]

After watching a clip of someone muttering on stage at Coachella I thought "I wonder what talented people like Marcus is doing" Google search and this beautiful song comes up from the last 5 days. Thank you for always restoring my faith in humanity Marcus.

[@mathewcameron123mc]

I feel like one true musical artist should preform at festivals like that. Just to slap some reality into those people's faces when they see real musical talent.

[@manuelvaldes5858]

This song is dedicated to my gorgeous wild flower 🌹

[@SW-jw6il]

👉 WTF !!! There really is hope for this generations music !!! Outstanding Jam & We dig you in Texas 🇺🇸

[@toxicab23]

What made me more excited was the Cardano shirt

[@darlenearseneault3356]

Sweet Jesus that was good

[@jefftippett3831]

The musicianship here is first rate, but it also leads me to this of the history these instruments have made and what a privilege for these guys to play them. '54 Strat, '58 Les Paul, 60's Fender-Rhodes - punch my ticket!

[@worldswatchdog]

Marcus King is only getting better and better every time I hear something new. On his way to being a generational guitar icon.

[@cojohnso80]

Holy shit. If I had to pick one thing to listen to for the rest of eternity......this would be my supernatural life hack.

[@willhammond666]

They absolutely slap together good god.

[@christ9359]

It was nice of him to get matching boots for his bandmate!

[@blacklake13]

Rare to get a guitar wizard whose vocals are as good as the playing.

[@keylearning5746]

Drew Smithers is the perfect foil for Marcus. What a sound!

[@bigsby19]

Off the chart boys! Incredible performance. Glad I got see him in Glasgow when he came to town.

[@jensschettler1732]

Voice is out of this world. Wonderfull. It is hard to sell guitars when somebody can touch your heart with his voice....

[@thomasguitarman9025]

What a killer song who wrote that this is how you play the blues.

[@kaz3]

This dude brings me so much happiness. A true gift to the world.

I have the privilege of seeing him play May 13 in Calgary.

Beautiful. Three incredibly talented dudes.

[@bluesmhan9709]

Mercy.. mercy me.. so beautiful.....see you in September 20. Marcus...

[@zakgundry832]

I never hear people talking about marcus' note selection and phrasing.. He knows the same scales as we all do but manipulates them in a way most of us don't even think of, all while sounding conventional and musical.. Amazing player and musician.

[@danokroy1020]

Damn... simply damn!!!!

Made my day. Glad to see these two making music together. Two of the finest young players around.

I’ll never forget seeing this kid play at chicora ally in greenville SC when he was 15 or 16 and unfamous soon to be infamous .

[@stephanep7354]

Absolutely incredible, gobsmacking performance. This drips with emotion despite the stunning virtuosity. Encore encore encore please!!!!
