We spent the past week in Alaska taking in the beautiful sights and recording some videos there. We had this campsite pretty much to ourselves, so we felt free to have a little jam around the fire to this tune, originally by Buddy Holly but covered here more in the style of the Grateful Dead.
This video goes out to Bill, a Deadhead (300+ shows!), regular viewer of our channel, and from what we know of him, an all around awesome person. :)
In case you missed our announcement yesterday on other social media, our 2021 Europe and UK tour with The Other Favorites has unfortunately been postponed until Fall 2022. We tried our absolute hardest to hang onto the dates for this tour because we were so excited to get back on the road and play shows in person for you again, but alas, due to travel restrictions and safety concerns, we had to move the dates yet again. All purchased tickets will transfer to the new dates automatically, and refunds are also available via the ticket vendors. I'm truly sorry for any inconvenience this causes people who were planning to travel to see us. Another postponement was not the outcome we were hoping for, but when we finally do get over there, those shows are really going to be something special. The new dates will be announced soon, so keep an eye out for those if you live in the UK/Europe!
In the meantime, we look forward to playing some more livestream concerts and making videos to stay connected with you all while we weather this storm. I hope you're staying safe and healthy wherever you are, and have a great Sunday.

Has anybody noticed the sound engineering of these recordings? Let's not take it for granted. Just having an exact representation makes this so pleasing.

[@pinoydad_0811]

Maan!..this girl toni!!!

[@michaeltrombino3888]

Toni and Reina, I had a major stroke stroke a little while back and almost died. Because of IMMEDIATE help I am still here. But I deal every day with Psydo-Balba Affect (I can't control some of my emotions) (I cry just about every day). But I AM alive! I started listening to you extremely talented young ladies about a year ago. And I get so much satisfaction from listening to you two, that I cry most of the time listening to you two play and sing! And it's the happiest CRY ever. You two bring me such happiness listening to you, and I KNOW many others. PLEASE, NEVER STOP! 😃

[@lilbrav6335]

Thank the great spirits in the sky we have these two wonderful humans here and now.

[@er5406]

Thanks ladies stay warm.

[@mikem668]

My love is bigger than a Cadillac... Perhaps the greatest line in Rock 'n Roll. Fantastic performance.

[@briangriffin5524]

The song has been covered by everybody from The Stones to The Grateful Dead.

[@Rjhs001]

Great way to start my day guys. 06:15 here in the UK and the working day beckons.

[@timpreston459]

For sure Buddy is listening with a smile

[@DarthPhallix]

Absolutely!

[@jockstrap8383]

I’ve said it before. Most people can’t sing harmony; most people can’t sing harmony and play lead guitar at the same time; most people can’t harmonise, play lead and arrange the whole thing; most people can’t do that and be a great friend at the same time and make someone close to them look so amazing. Great stuff.

[@mcamp9445]

Agree. One of the few is jerry Garcia himself

[@NikkoAus]

Most people can’t even sing..

[@mikemeyers1717]

Buddy Holly would be proud . 👏 Toni's guitar licks are perfect .👏 Reina's voice is awesome , like always . Great cover ! ! ! ! !

[@jareddahlseid551]

Holy smokes!! I love how she’s like ‘it’s out of tune but I’ll give it a try’ and then proceeds to burn it down 🔥

[@jtsrecordroom3963]

Very very Dead related in execution on this killer rendition of the Buddy Holly timeless classic "Not fade Away" Please check out just about any live Grateful Dead version of this !

[@housemanblues]

Well I'm 61 and you gals are blowing me away. Reina your voice purrs, and Toni your guitar playing is right up there with today's best. Thank you for soothing our world every Sunday.

[@MarciaoMarciones]

Reina and Toni together it's like even before watching the video

[@blakem9109]

Going to Alaska is a good way to get a head start on fall over the rest of the US.

[@andrewdownes9730]

Very talented women. You have worked hard to hone your skills. So good

[@THEOXECLEAN]

Those bluegrass licks Toni hits heals my soul

[@venderstrat]

Excellent. Loving this in Queensland.

[@mortshare7037]

Greetings from Fairbanks - we have a friend living in Wasilla that used to work in the front office for the Dead!

[@louisaronds6127]

WoW!! Alaska!!

[@seamuslynam4246]

It's lonesome away from your kindred and all, by the campfire at night where the wild dingos call. . and listen to the lovely singing of Toni and Reina...

[@viemonphilippe8438]

Your simplicity, your freshness, your talent, your colors, your "fringues", your fire, your chairs, your trees and your sky, your glory, alleluia !!!!

[@a.duncan6791]

Rachelle and Toni, forever RDC. Loved this second time around...

[@dogshowish]

Buddy holy song was good🤙👍 thumbs up

[@bjornfisk]

Think I heard some crickets in there. Nice work !!!

[@wattsd12]

Was driving down Buddy Holly Avenue in Lubbock TX. last Thursday listening to Joe Ely do this song. Always a favorite.

[@Sanderly1820]

First time I heard not fade away was when Gary Busey played the role of buddy , in the 1978 film The Buddy Holly story. This was ab awesome cover love it

[@xshanghu]

Another favorite of mine.

[@dogpatch75]

Wow... Bringing Buddy Holly to a campfire in Denali... How cool is that!

[@DurgaDas96]

Now, that’s my kind of music!

[@rockykoast7065]

Take two girls, two guitars, an unlikely location...What have u got? Musical ecstasy!

[@adbogo]

Poor Buddy. I hope you two lead a long, happy and prosperous life.

[@jonahbert111]

Love Toni's hat. You gals are so cute. Thanks for being.

[@roberttroesch-edamsaskcana3652]

Reina & Toni my words alone cannot express how much happiness your music brings to my life! Another beautiful Sunday morning performance!!! Thank you so very much.

[@davidgregg2778]

Mine too ! You guys are so great together !

[@oonaghcostello3450]

Fantastic xx

[@mumblbeebee6546]

I second this sentiment! :)

[@jltsoyowdycjltsoyowdyc1076]

Yeah, this was really really great! If tours ever come back, I promise, I’m going.

[@mariojosesantos2784]

Soft drink and soft music!

[@stephenlayland2889]

I had a guitar. It taught me that my inborn rhythm is of words. The guitar was unbranded. Like to Willie Nelson, I gave it a name -- Ol' Firewood. Then I gave up camping. It is good to hear you back, Ms. Lindgren.

[@rebelmannetje]

30 years ago I was in Denali wish I spotted these two howling wolves.

[@gdavidfrye]

Yeah! That really rocks.

[@turtlerockrocks3316]

Reina Rhythm and Toni makes you want to dance. Alaska is your Recording Studio!

[@scherritknoesen148]

Looking forward to seeing you folks in UK!

[@clubmike2910]

Love the dead tunes.

[@wernerbrosel4418]

Toller Rythmus, schöne Musik, danke...

[@natividadgutierrez1201]

Happy Sunday morning! Excellent girls !!

[@jeffdetmer4681]

And they say people will go to extremes to get back out into the world. LOL. What a great day. An amazing song written by a genius songwriter. Two beautiful and talented women playing and singing. In a location which is one of the most incredible backdrops anywhere. Enjoy your stay there ladies. Try not to freeze off anything important. Sorry about your Euro tour schedule. The positive (I always look for positives) is that we may be getting more streamed concerts. Not quite the same for you guys without the immediate and vocal appreciation from an audience, but trust me when I say that all of us who will be watching those streamed shows will be clapping and screaming our heads off. Stay safe and well Reina and Toni.

[@Divocwax]

The trees loved it. I saw them doing various moves.

[@henrysella4580]

You guys make me happy

[@kilpel2]

So real and pure

[@Baldin991]

My god, yours version is the best! I lovely ❤

[@boomerdell]

From Buddy Holly to the Dead to you two. The chain of brilliant musicianship continues. You two really are absolute treasures.

[@macedindu829]

Alaska, super cool (literally)!

[@burlingtonbill4687]

You guys are so good! Burlington Bill, singer songwriter here on you-tube, busking from home and the road. (including Alaska)

[@mikelair9144]

Thanks y'all. Food for my soul

[@lmp9726]

The sheer beauty of this music found in the Alaska wilderness by two voices and two acoustic guitars brought tears to my eyes and a giant smile. Proof positive that humanity's little fires will triumph in spite of the turmoil and fear infecting the world right now. Thank you for sharing the fireside.

[@wascawywabbit0987]

Yep, there's nothing like the sound of an acoustic guitar in the woods.

[@vivlee3840]

So true!

[@royjunior3349]

Amen to that brother!

[@georgeplungis5283]

Beautiful said.

[@robertwheeler9542]

I can’t sing, I can’t pick and I can’t dance but theses tow can make great music in the middle of nowhere.

[@kennethen1110]

I can't believe Toni let you play her signature guitar!

[@dh5645]

💗 our love for you two will not fade away 💗

[@jaytribett4677]

I remember Buddy Holly's music very well from the radio in the 50's. Reina and Toni, you have the beat so perfect, you would think that it was Buddy Holly & The Crickets with both of you today.

[@ronhaggstrom9307]

Makes my heart smile

[@NikkoAus]

Wouldn’t it be a happy day if Ell and Toni pulled into your camp ground, lit a fire and sang a few songs, you wouldn’t want to leave.

[@mischef18]

Awesome guys just love your setting. Safe travels

[@legebakken1]

Oh you girls !! You make tears come in old mans face with your singing and playing. Pure magic !

[@PhoenixwayNet]

The fire again! Loved the last one by the fire!

[@ARichardP]

[@johnnypocknee2842]

Wow Great version of this Buddy Holly classic stay safe and warm

[@nsmall1901]

Not only are you making beautiful music together for the enjoyment of your fans and supporters, you are creating a treasure trove of memories. No doubt, your Alaska adventure will be a jewel of special remembrance in that trove.

[@a.duncan6791]

Don't forget Bo Diddley's instrumental or the "Stones", So much greatness in the 50's and 60's and now you guys...

[@tatonblue3031]

Can you imagine what a great great camping trip it would be with these guys?!🤠😊👍🎵

[@ukuletion1]

So...Saturday night the smokey apparition of Buddy Holly rose from the campfire and says to Toni, Hawaii doesn't Reina del cid cover one of my tunes? Toni says ... I don't know ... But Alaska🤣 OK, I'll admit it, I am as forest green as that chair with... admiration!!! Thanks!!!

[@rainforme1850]

Oh how happy music! Talent too. Thx for posting!

[@paulhague5590]

what a treat for my 81st birthday! Thanks! You two are great.

[@daviemcf]

Great cover girls....this was also the Stones second single in early 60's.

[@danbgt]

I was born and raised in the Lubbock, Texas area. Buddy died when I was very young so, yes, I’m an old guy. I have been a Buddy Holly fan all my life and Not Fade Away is at the very top of my favorite songs. Buddy did it best. Several people have butchered it. Several people have done good by it. This is one of the best renditions of Not Fade Away. You have made it your own but still maintained its heart. Buddy would be honored. Thanks you!!

[@nkhmd]

wow...you got me with your intro...10 seconds after your first strum, I was mesmerized, and knew I was watching pro's

[@barriewylde5915]

Thanks guys I love buddy Holly great choice thanks.🇨🇦❤️🎸🎹

[@goosegossage8208]

You had me at Toni. Jealous of everything about this video. Sorry guys, no love letters this time. Just going to watch and enjoy 2 of the best to ever do it. If my life was a movie, Toni would be Wendy Peffercorn.

[@stefanschleps8758]

You had me in happy tears. In Denali no less! Thanks doesn't get across the emotion that song evokes in us Dead Heads. Reina you kept the rhythm tight and Toni your lead licks would make any picker proud. Grateful to you two. Jerry is God. Music saves. Not Fade Away Greetings from Vienna, Austria.

[@chichibangbang3667]

Thanks for the spirited campfire Sunday welcome. Any fishing stories to tell from Alaska?

[@leepryor123]

Absolutely wonderful ladies, that was a joy to listen to 😊

[@gillygil8747]

Appreciate each other. You are a treasure together. Such soulful faith and love in one another. Thank you, ladies.

[@lesilmcguire4690]

I love you ladies so much and Alaska is my home. So glad you made it ❤️🤗

[@glennevans5147]

Beautiful just Beautiful

[@trackie1957]

I remember in the late 70s calling into my local college radio station to thank them for playing this Grateful Dead song and the DJ said “Dude! That’s Buddy Holly!” Opened my eyes a bit. Then I learned that “all along the watchtower” wasn’t Hendrix’s…

[@iamtheeggman0036]

What the Hell Ladies, you took Buddy Holly with you to Alaska?! Then you battle hypothermia with beer, three chords and back beat that would make Bo Diddley weep?! My God, I love you guys!
