Hi guys! This is so cool! Anyway, Oliver Anthony has a channel with a couple of dozen of songs he recorded on his phone which you obviously found. Someone from RadioWV saw him perform and sent a crew with a real camera and a microphone to record him at his house. He lives off the grid in in Farmville Virginia. Those are his dogs and that big thing in the background is a deer blind, likely left over from the previous owners of the old farmhouse where he lives. He was a factory worker across the border in North Carolina which inspires a lot of his music.
@kevinthurston221610 ай бұрын
Why do you say the deer stand is likely left over from previous owners? There is no farmhouse. He lives in a camper that has a tarp on the roof that he bought for $750. It is actually more likely that the deer stand is his. And there is nothing wrong with that.
@massivereader10 ай бұрын
Posted the comment before I knew about his Facebook account where he revealed his name and told us about the land and his living arangements. Even so, there may still be a farmhouse, one that is dilapidated and requires extensive renovation to be made habitable. Houses, especially ones with wood siding, fall apart rather quickly if there is no one living there and keeping them up. A lot of people who buy land from the estate of someone who has passed on have to live in a trailer or camper for years while they build a new house or make an old house livable. You can't get a conventional mortgage for a property with more than thirteen acres to buy a house in many states, you have to get a farm loan. I think you have to have at least a hundred acres to get a farm loan for undeveloped or land with prior agicultural use, and he only has eighty acres. As to the deer stand being his, I was just guessing it was something left over based on the apparent age. He could also have bought it used, or brought it from his folks place.

Christopher Lunsford (AKA Oliver Anthony) lives in Farmville, Virginia about 20 minutes from me. He has performed in some local venues, but I am SO glad the rest of the world gets to hear him now. He has had a tough life, but he owns a small farm now, and he is a devout Christian - if you hear him live you will hear him read from the Bible - he is the real deal. Hits message is FIRE. We all need to stop pointing fingers and blaming each other, and all join together to engage the real enemy - the Rich men north of Richmond.

But id like to share and I cant be positive, but when i hear the song i believe he was reffering to children when he sings about "minors on an island" as in the Epstien island situation and the child sex slave trade. I could be wrong though! Anyways, you two are a pleasure to watch, Stay you!

Yesss!!! I think you guys are beautiful...it touched my heart after days of catching people’s reactions to this to see you also feel this in your heart and souls...I think that’s why this is so powerful. It’s from God...everything about it is amazing, his story of going thru what he sings about, asking God to help him be stronger and more ‘positive’ in his life, and then this. The cords, the melody’s the message, the soul in this recording is from high power! This is why it is constantly connecting with peeps....I am from England and this is relatable here too...reading the comments on all the reactions videos I’ve watched of this it seems to connect with everyone, from any nation....unless you’re rich and powerful we are all going thru the same and we all feel the same in our hearts and souls. God bless you two and everyone who hears this song and is moved by it. 💚

It’s brutal work and he risks his life every single day. Literally.
