Ren - I Shot The Sheriff (Bob Marley Cover)
A video we didn't end up using for the big push channel so I thought id share it here! Here is me and The Big Push playing I shot the Sheriff

[@lindseywarren44]

Wow. I don't have words. My late husband of 30 years and I were avid blues fans. We hosted budding musicians and helped them get started. He was a photographer and would donate his time to help get them publicity shots, etc. He adored all of them and many weekends were spent with musicians sleeping on our floor waking up to my husband cooking enormous breakfasts. He would have simply ADORED this beautiful young man. Oh my. I so wish he could hear this perfection! Perhaps he can...Anyway, I am enamored and complete besotted with this enormously talented young man. Bless

[@geverniveup]

I know he can. My mum was involved with the Roots and Blues festival in the early days in Byron Bay....she LOVED the blues. They are both listening....i know it

[@phuketprivateisland441]

I'm late to this Ren party, but damn, I can't get enough. Mesmerizing. Just brilliant.

[@noelthake3718]

I hear Ya!

[@jessied1819]

Me also, hopefully this is the beginning of a snow ball turning into an avalanche

[@oldsteve4291]

62 and reminded of the raw talents that made my youth so vibrant and full of life, then I saw Ren. Truly powerful delivery of a Bob classic. Why is it, that with million dollar set ups, the best the, so called, music industry, can give kids nowadays is plastic, auto tuned pap, written by middle aged, professional pop song writers and sung by talentless pretty things, when Ren and the guys can set up in an alley, play live and reach into your soul. Makes me sad. I hope Ren achieves what ever it is he wants to achieve, he deserves it.

Never give up on what makes you happy

[@Inus]

thats easy sir, you can make music on and record it on a fisher price if the intent was the music and nothing else

[@philipduttonlescorlett]

Ren, you have blown me away man! Being a 55 year old musician, I feel like a beginner next to what you are producing. Hi Ren literally brought tears to my eyes and I haven't experienced that since my mum died 44 years ago. I think what you are doing is the first 'fresh' and the most artistic stuff I have heard in a long time. You are up their with the very best man. Keep it coming! Signed, yet another fan!

[@jasminryu5471]

Humble trophies being spoken into reality!

[@thomasgwyn1589]

Many have been labeled musical genius. This bloke is music spirit

[@simongigney2138]

Wow, this guy put it perfectly. Condolences on your mother Phil. But yeah. It is, my friend showed me that song an was my first clue of you an was like getting smacked. Objective achieved

[@HotRod4God72]

💯

[@stevecoatsworth3824]

I couldn't listen to it without crying for at least the first 50 plays. This man has something special.

[@randcanape683]

Ive heard this song my entire life (55m). Eric clapton, bob marley.....wholly shit....Ren has reintroduced this to an entirely new audience, why?? Its so fucking full of soul. God bless my man.

[@vivianacastro-fox4564]

What a gift you are to the world. You sing and play like you walked on this earth for many moons. Thank you for sharing Your beautiful gift.

This is not a cover this is an amazing tribute to a great man and musician. Bob would love it.

[@jusdubzzz]

I thought the same thing

[@tesskennedy4959]

Bob Marley would have wanted to jam with Ren and the big push 🎈🎈🎈

[@Bar77bar]

I second this all day long bob would be proud ren is unique

[@MargaretKichenama]

This was a Spiritual experience. Love this Bluesy version all day long♥

[@xthereon754]

Just like Bob Dylan referring to Jimi Hendrix's rendition of "All Along The Watchtower", I feel like Bob Marley, too, would say that he really made it his own.

[@carlofrancisco5256]

Dang. Thomas Shelby can sing and play the guitar!

[@leejones1319]

I remember this. I went out to buy bread in brighton and heard this magical sound. I went home with no bread but of a tale of a sound and a voice I had met. I knew this soul I had met was here to give a message. All artists show the way, but few artists do we see. Ren is thee artists. I am listening.

[@niksgee3538]

Beautiful words ❤️

[@KatsFurBabys]

wow amazing, i admire ppl like you that say so much with so few words, ppl like ren, its a beautiful gift ❤

[@dfsilversurfer]

sounds like something id do for sure. People that get so hung up about where the bread is , miss the message and why its important to let people know were' human and have a need to connect . Ren is just that.!. I hope he can handle whats coming .

I'm literally standing a balcony downtown Sao miguel Portugal. The city scape amongst the hustle and bustle of the people below. The hot sun and the cool sea breeze creates such an ambiance, this song ties it all together 💖

[@geparada88]

When I was living in the UK, I always dreamt about randomly walking into one of your street shows... I hope you never stop growing as an artist, so I can someday see you jamming on a big stage! Warm wishes from Toronto.

[@RenMakesMusic]

Big love!!!

[@nomore4me286]

I love hearing everything this kid does. He's way beyond his years. Such raw emotion talent and feeling. Wow!!

[@robynmartin7304]

He's 34...

[@ladylaudanum8663]

That's what chronic illness does to you.

[@rebel_130]

So much talent and so much wisdom, just mind blowing

[@Maliceah]

That last bit had me thinking about how Sting was influenced by Bob Marley. "Woke up this morning" could've been Sting. You are a gift.

[@rowanthomas9181]

Man!! If I came across you jamming in the streets I'd love to just sing a tune together. Your voice man!

[@tmotnlr]

Ren, you are a gem! Can’t get enough of your gifts. Thank you for illuminating us ✨✨✨

[@scriptjungle]

When i hear "todays artists" im often sad that there aren't such originals like sting, sinead o connor etc. who really feel the music - but than there are you showing me there is still hope for those artists living and feeling their music as art and not just as a product. Thank you !

[@RenMakesMusic]

Thankyou so much!!

[@packotakko]

I think you are just looking in the wrong places. People get stuck with their music taste at a certain point in time... There is plenty of high quality music out there :)

[@RiceyBhoy89]

The mainstream is a controlled group,they want pain,suffering,bad influences and division. The don’t want light and prosperity.

[@packotakko]

@Dans white Just try out some new genres you are not familiar with. Have an open mind and just explore for yourself. Get out of your comfort zone. Why not give deathcore for instance or more guitar-centered music such as Polyphia a try? Challange yourself

[@retriever19golden55]

@Dans white The Dead South from Canada is also fresh and honest, and they love their fans...check them out, they have an original and honest take on bluegrass. Wonderful band. Ren is amazing, so glad I found him!

[@lee7701]

I’m just blown away every time I listen to this lad. His artistic talent and passion for music is quite honestly on another level.

[@terrybenham2584]

Yes another level entirely

[@budliteRedneck]

Absolutely agree!

[@Princess-Um]

Love your interpretations! You don't need original songs, though they are interesting too, because you make every song original. I hope that you know how one-of-a-kind you are.

[@RenMakesMusic]

Really appreciate that!!

[@williamsemmens4956]

Ren I love your versatility so much, holy shit man. You never disappoint. Loved the tales and all of your albums. They make me feel emotion which a lot of artists fail to do, like your song depression and insomnia

[@RenMakesMusic]

Thankyou so much!

[@nevillerobert318]

Ren - this reaches the soul, very few can do that....thanks bro

[@nicoleo8149]

I grew up with Bob Marley music and this was amazing. The energy rolling off this was incredible.

[@JimmyRogers-tl1iw]

Truly amazing brutha! 🙏

[@davidbjoerkqvist]

If i would get the privilege to meet you Ren, I would sob and cry and explain how much you and the band have meant to me these last years. I cannot handle the fact that I wont ever get to see The Big Push perform live. Literally breaks my soul when I think about it, so I have to force myself not to. Please know how fantastic you are Ren.

[@Lakeman23]

A natural in every way. Ren you have mastered the fret board, your tone and the inflections you use are emotional and remarkable and he beat boxes and raps-C'mon! Born to make music!

[@shiro7512]

I love your original songs, how the they their own tales, but your covers are godly too, just love ya, you are my favorite musician. Keep it up and stay healthy 😘

[@RenMakesMusic]

Thanks so much!!!

[@derekconnolly9662]

There's really no genre of music that Ren can't touch, I am blessed to have found a talent like this and look forward to seeing you achieve more than you can dream but no more than you deserve. Peace

[@kramerska]

... I love how he moves the soul like jazz artists used to do to me over 40 years ago.

[@skinksinthecity]

Wow bro. You are criminally underplayed. I would say underrated, but those of us that know, don't think that way. Thanks, Ren. You have bought me back from the brink & arisen my spirit in your music. Appreciated bruv.🙏🏻🔥🎶🌏

Love when I stumble across a brilliant indie artist. His covers are great, and his original music is good for my 70yr old mind, body, and soul. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🩹❤️‍🔥

[@Kevin-yk4nz]

I am 66 and it's kind of mind-blowing that I am reading accolades to/for REN by so many men and women in the 55 - 75 age group. I love it man ... we certainly aren't the typical "Baby Boomers" are we? I count this as a great PLUS! I wish I knew just one peer locally who still seeks out new and extreme talents coming from our youth. At least after reading the many comments on various REN Joints that I do have many such peers ... just spread around the world 🌎. I found Jake Bugg and Tom O'Dell here and love what they do, but REN has now taken the number one spots on my Playlist or the Album's I purchased. Take care man, I am ... Kevin Leigh Minton 🎉

[@ricknolan6869]

You are, hands down, the best artist of our generation. You rap, sing, (busk), and slay strings all while taking me through a full range of emotions. I hope you never stop fam.

[@RenMakesMusic]

Thanks so much rick!!!

[@holly1234ize]

1000%

[@dereklewis9451]

I believe we are witnesses to the early stages of a talent that only comes along once every 10-20 years. I just discovered him tonight. I'm 5 hours in. I have to work in an hour and a half and i don't care. I blown away from his music and story telling and the cadence of his rhymes. I'm a fan for life and will tell everyone I know about him. This kind of talent will get out to the world. He will be successful beyond his wildest dreams.

[@79huddy]

Ive seen quite a few bands cover this but none of them have anything on this performance holy shit man 🙌​@@RenMakesMusic

[@shanewilliams4072]

I found you about a week ago. And you hands down are one of the best artists ive heard in a hot minute. I never thought thered be another great artist in this generation, but you are it. You are at the top of all my lists. Keep up creating, everything you do is beautiful.

[@Chris-vr6nd]

Ren has got mad talent and also as someone that continuously suffers at a pain level of 5 from Lyme disease. I really enjoy his music. We might not look like we are in pain, but we are, we just trained our minds to tolerate it.

[@kierantempleton8311]

The way they all connect to their instruments!!!! 😮

[@SheppyYT]

Ren showing his range, passion, flow.... f*ck just showing us everything. Great version from the Big Push guys a truly great bunch of guys making music on the streets simply for the love of playing great music together.

[@smptown29]

I think it would be harder to find a genre that you can't do, @renmakesmusic. Man, I'm blown away by your variety. Here's to many years more!

[@diusher]

Ren, as usual, perfection. The band your playing with are highly skilled artisans. Kudos, great rendition.

[@johnandrews4144]

It's the big push. ren was part of the band.. Unfortunately had to split up while ren looked for treatment

I'm so glad an artist has the balls to put out a cover now a days in this copyright strike era

[@evechoseknowledge1604]

Ren, found you serendipitously upon this solemn peaceful Christmas Eve. You’re brilliant, and feel your soul and love within everything piece of music you create, or reimagine! You’re beautiful and so grateful for your spirit. Lost my dear husband and father to our children to suicide. He had been listening to Bob Marley on his last day in this dimension, and on so many joyous occasions he would sing Marley’s songs as we took road trips as a family. So grateful for the gift of your spirit and magic! It’s a blessing to listen to your heart, and know you make the world a more beautiful place. Wishing you peace, love & light. Hope to see you perform in person soon. You’re a shining star dearest Ren! A new friend from California. ✨🌟✨🙏🏼

[@AssiralNeek]

The way you play and sound. It's visceral. Incredible talent you have there. Same goes for the rest of the band naturally.
