Sierra Hull live at Paste Studio on the Road: DelFest

[@Koch52]

Best cover of Mad World ever. She has the voice of an angel.

[@TheDIYTechnician]

She has what other musicians dream of, and that’s ’Perfection’. The lads around her also make her shine. I would love to see this group tour Ireland, they would be hugely popular. ❤☘️

[@CyranoNYC]

This is THE quintessential Sierra Hull set. The virtuosic playing, the range of style, the voice, the demeanor, the chemistry with her band... This is the video I am going to send to people when I am trying to explain my absolute obsession with her artistry.

[@frankierodriguez8661]

she and Molly Tuttle are the Army in front of such panel of mediocrity. God bless our girls

[@fretfix1]

@@frankierodriguez8661 I believe they are Women. And don't forget Sierra Ferrell. Also a Woman...

[@ArsenAl-zorK]

Absolutely briliant, I come back to this video every now and then.

[@JessicaBedard-o8v]

Every single member of this band is incredibly talented! Wow!

[@waiteproductions]

That mad world cover was absolutely amazing

[@thetxpenguin]

Because of this video I went to see her live when she came through Austin. I expected to love the show but was still blown away! She was astounding, not just on mandolin but with the vocals.

[@amritzelnick]

Instant goosebumps with the 1st phrase. what amazing dynamics, timbre and timing from the whole group. She has the voice of an an angel and fingers that most musicians would sell their soul for

[@michaelgarrity6090]

My God, what an incredibly talented musician Sierra Hull is. Her choices of covers were awesome. Her rendition of Mad World brought me to tears because it is so achingly beautiful. I had to play that twice and before I move on I will probably play it again. I hope she puts this song on one of her records or soon will do so. Her original track is fantastic as well. She is a virtuoso of the Mandolin. So glad the great KZbin Algorithm brought this video to my feed. She has one talented group of musicians backing her up here, too. PS: I didn't just rewind the video one time, I did three more times. Good lord this lady can play the Mandolin. Her voice is lovely too. The guy playing the fiddle, magnificent work. As they are at the end fading out Mad World, he had this really subtle but beautiful way he played. Sublime awesomeness. Sierra and the band have picked up a new follower.

[@Jewboification]

I saw Sierra Hull@ Clayton Center for the Arts, in Maryville TN, a few years ago!! A brilliant artist, and such a talented group, as well!

[@stringbender57]

Sierra is sounding SO good. What a voice and what a picker!! Excellent group of musicians. I love listening to this young lady.

[@rayfinkle7064]

Guess I'm playing this on repeat until forever !!

[@AmericanGir1333]

Yup 😂❤❤❤❤

[@DONNIEWATKINS]

Love Sierra Hull !~!~!~ Cant Wait To See Her And Her Band Again In April Got My Two Tickets :):)

[@FrednDeeDee]

A few hundred years ago when I was in my teens the entire family would head outside to the picnic table to play and sing our hearts out into the night. Those were some of the best days of my life. You folks bring it all right back home to me and I want to thank you very much for the music and the wonderful memories. You're all awesome!!!!!

[@leebatt7964]

Apparently the drummer cant believe what he’s hearing. The look on his face while shes rippin runs is priceless.

[@jimurrata6785]

There's a whole lot of talent in that tiny press box! How they pull off the sound with all that glass is awesome. 👍

[@brianjett5718]

Fantastic! Also, I appreciate anybody with a Levon Helm shirt.

[@jeremyschneider9531]

Dang, I've never seen Sierra before...she's FANTASTIC! Her playing, her vocals, and her fun personality. And her band is fantastic too. I love how they are all tuned into each other, keeping it tight, each with their turns to shine.

[@TheAbastero]

nobody says it but the audio take is phenomenal, kudos to @Juan M Soria!!

[@JuanSoriaGuitar]

Thanks Esteban!! 🤘🏼

[@T410ce]

Yup, sounds fantastic 👍🏻

[@michaeledwards9376]

One mic takes all. Stupendous audio, fabulous playing. Peace.

[@thedavesofourlives1]

as a amateur engineer I came to say the same, is this all through the 1 mic?

[@tedkorkowski7819]

After listening to this, i,ve listened to the large musical catalogue of Sierras albums and videos. I,ve enjoyed it all! Sierra is a monster talent and catalyst for change. Thankyou so much for the love and work you have put in. Im sure you are bringing joy to many people, you do for me.. Nice recording, guys from paste

[@235buz]

My God, I've underestimated Sierra. She's the most talented woman of my lifetime and I'm a young 67.

[@chrisbryant1657]

The second song "Lord it's a long way" is killer! Beautiful voice and great band. She's a legend!

[@pulpmysteryfan]

The Mad World cover is beautifully crafted.

[@bigtone667]

Bass player has some great groove. All of them have outrageous talent

[@rayfinkle7064]

You have to be world class to play this type of music all of them !!

[@richardwright8692]

Hi Sierra Hull you are awesome!!!!!!! and your band of talented gents.

[@jaystevens427]

She seems like such a genuine person and such a sweetheart!

[@LoneStranger0]

What a brilliant mandolinist Sierra is!!

[@casard5235]

Great music. Your voice is amazing and the cadre of musicians which you are so in touch with, the music that you create with your voice, fingers, guitar. My subscription has just been done,going to see what else you have to offer. Tally-ho!!

[@rickbullock4331]

That was an excellent set. The second tune just about set off the fire sprinklers, that mandolin pick’n was hot. Fantastic musicians all around and Sierra has a terrific voice.👍👍🇨🇦

[@wardtroetschel3362]

Sierra, that was the best recording of Mad World. So emotional.

There's a lot of videos of "Lord, That's A Long Way" but none are as fast as this one. Sierra is the best in the business. We need more records, pronto

Toe tapping and hand clapping music for sure, great band!!! Wonderful job , thanks for sharing this awesome group of musicians with us all.

[@forestsky7064]

Sierra is a sweet sweet treasure of goodness and extreme talent. Great musicians and loved this 👍👍👍

[@twangmeister]

OMG, this set was amazing. All 3 songs were great, but the cover of Mad World sent shivers up my spine. Sierra should definitely record this IMHO. Many thanks for capturing this for posterity.

[@AdamWestUS]

This rendition of mad world inspired me to learn the song. I have learned how to sing and play it and at this time I am sending this to my teacher so we may fine tune it.🎶🎶

[@ridewithme3428]

She played it in her set Friday night! It blew my mind and I’m so thankful to have seen her and her band live!

[@charlesbernard9198]

The combo of shredding, emotion, good times and ending with a poignant song selection is incredible

[@charlesfritter9686]

I could not listen to this amazing women with commenting. Not only amazing, but such a genuinely sweet, awesome person, one of the greatest mandolin players ever, beautiful voice, and cute as a button. As usual, her playing and her bands playing was spectacular. I can listen to Sierra play all the day long.

[@gsco82]

All 3 songs were great, but I particularly liked the second one where Sierra showed her great skill as a mandolin player. She is up there with the best.

[@ridewithme3428]

Bombshell is the song! Hope this helps!

Loving the youth picking this up. Absolutely brilliant. She’s the real deal.

[@timothycollins3829]

That second tune shows how she can learn and adapt from the people she plays with. Her touring with Bela Fleck and Cory Wong have had a noticeable affect on her playing and writing and I for one love it.

[@eliotduke1753]

Score one for the algorithm. And thank you.

I’ve commented on this before but after listening to it many times I’m still floored by Sierra and Mad World. She’s made it her own. She’s inspired. Her final mandolin solo is fantastic. I wonder if she performs it in her present tour with Bela Fleck.

[@christopherschissler1675]

Del yeah! Was my 1st Delfest with my 2 sons and their friends. 'Mad World' really struck me when Sierra sang it live! 4 days of music and fun briefly obscured from the harshness of the outside world in such a friendly and beautiful place. That song has been stuck in my head with many pleasant memories.

[@JacobHeadMusic]

When she did it with the set did she play it on the electric or the acoustic mando? This video is the first time I’ve heard her play it not on electric, and it’s absolutely just as gorgeous in that setting. I went to Delfest in 2018, and have heard/met/talked with Sierra a half dozen other times. I know you had a blast. She is an incredible individual and a once in a lifetime talent.

[@johniedesk1]

I'm floored what a fine version of Mad World.

[@mikesimmons4519]

It amazes me only 6200 people have seen this amazing three song performance. I know I have commented on this before and have viewed it several times since, I cannot believe what a talent Sierra is singing and on mandolin. Her band is also super talented. I would really like to know if Sierra arranges these numbers and how much input the band has. Again, my hat is off to this awesome performance.
