Sam Bush & Sierra Hull - "Turkey in the Straw" - Grey Fox 2018

[@tomt9543]

It’s after midnight, feeling hopeless due to my wife’s condition after multiple strokes, and y’all managed to put the biggest smile on my face! Thanks for spreading happiness! GOD bless y’all!

[@disprogreavette8545]

From the way they play I think he already did. Have a great day Tom and may this video lead you down a rabbit hole filled with great music. Cheers.

[@jonimaricruz1692]

Good wishes to you, Tom.

amen, bro.

[@jimmykirkland6249]

Simply phenomenal. Sierra is at the top of her game. Fantastic. What a jam. Thank you both so much.♥️

[@barbaraberry8032]

I haven't heard this song in like forever. Just crossed my mind and thought I would find it. Glad I did. Great job.

[@esenaboxaki]

I've just learnt my first tune on the mando - Turkey in the Straw 🌾🌾🦃🌾🌾. Thanks, Teach👧🙋‍♂️

[@dakotahrickard]

I'm an amateur mandolinist at best, but I love the instrument enough that I've just purchased a The Loar LM520 to try to get better. Folks like you guys are such an inspiration to me. I hope one day I'm even half as good as you both are. I love the differences in style and technique that you both bring to the table, the way you each play the instrument in your own way and in your own character while still working together to make something beautiful.

[@jamescullis7768]

The joy in Sierra's face is priceless

[@m3a2g1]

I witness

[@dangeoopatrick2593]

Sierra a few years ago was up there with the top mandolin pickers, today she is way, way above them, she picks so clean and man her tone, it is absolutely awesome.

[@thestormlscoming]

Agreed

[@Special_Agent_NSB]

Yeah, Sierra is in a league of her own at this point. I’d say the same thing about Molly Tuttle on the guitar as well.

[@andrewkeen3129]

@@Special_Agent_NSB Sierra is unbelievable. Molly is amazing but I wouldn't say a league of her own, there are scary monsters like David Grier out there.

[@MrJRW1]

That’s some fantastic mandolin skills! Wow!

[@PseudoAccurate]

She's one of the greats, but I don't think she's so far above everybody else. Jake Workman is so sick at guitar, and he can play mandolin as well. Super fast. Super clean. Heck, Sierra's husband is also a badass who can keep up with her. So fast and so clean. Here's Jake: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oX-9qI1noLuba9U

[@rickb5946]

I watch this every morning!!! It just makes me feel so good...

[@1mrmerced]

Absolutely stellar jam. Can't believe anyone with ears or taste would give that a thumbs down.

[@whovisionsCGI]

Oooooooutstaaaaanding!! We seriously need more music like this in the UK and on TV. This is pure talent. I can't stop tapping my foot to that one.

[@body-horrorragdolls1826]

Heya sorry to self promo but I'm a UK based banjo player check me out.

[@harveymilne1684]

Although it’s not bluegrass, the UK’s traditional folk scene is still going pretty good

[@NeilMcLinden]

Check out a group called We Banjo 3, they combine Celtic with bluegrass pretty damn well.

[@BenJamesSantaCruz]

How anyone could click a thumb down on that sweet tune is beyond my comprehension. Loved it!!

[@johnduffy6546]

That was sooo uplifting! Really made my day. Thank you for sharing the talent God gave you and, please continue

[@BURGRKNG]

That right there is a lifetime of dedication to the instrument

[@crazycoyote1738]

Ouch.. so beautiful to see this two generations creating such quality music in such harmony!!

Fortunately,the future of bluegrass and acoustic and Americana music looks bright....Sierra Hull,A.J.Lee,Molly Tuttle,Billy Strings,Dead South,Steven Seagull,Rhiannon Giddens...Some of the brilliant young talent that makes this old man smile!!

[@CorneiliusLibowitz]

You can add Larkin Poe, Sarah Jarosz and Samantha Fish to that list.

[@stonytina01will-not-be-ban78]

One can recognise two great musicians jamming, when those musicians give each other that "special" look and both of them just know what the other wants to do.

[@jefferp]

I was a dancer in the musical drama TEXAS in Palo Duro Canyon for several seasons and I've heard, danced and known this song all my life... didn't know it had a name until today 11-25-2021 Thanksgiving Day! I play mandolin now so I'm going to have to learn this!

[@cyruskalali8222]

First time I hear of these two. Now, a permanant fan.

[@erikstenhammar]

I've seen this clip like 20 times and it still fills me of pure joy every time.

[@patriciawallenmusic]

Awesome you guys do great!! I play mandolin and sing bluegrass myself and I love it . I started playing when I was 8 . I am now 33 I grew up on bluegrass I’ve had a musical family but you guys keep up the great work!!!

[@s10m0t10n]

I've heard a lot of versions of this tune over the years but this one comes at the top of the list. Bright, lively and made a lot of fun by two great players. Wonderful.

[@davidhoxit4274]

Superb! That's the continuity of music I hope to achieve! Wonderful performance

[@boydbc]

Sam Bush and Sierra Hull...the old and the new generation. This is definitely an amazing performance of a classic piece.

[@hope4ourfallen]

That smile was so warm and simply watching you two together was heartwarming❤❤❤

[@johnedwards1685]

Wow! What lovely people! Both artists and audience.

[@felilahm]

My siblings, cousins and I played this song @ @ during the Corona crisis. We hope that this music will bring you joy through the difficult times and wish you a nice day! Best regards :) @39SI

[@dannilaser16]

The respect and love these two have for each other is heart warming. Amazing talent Sierra and Sam. I could listen to you 24 hours a day.

[@dancotterman1267]

Watching great musicians humbles a fellow picker. I still have fun though. Not as much as listening to the good stuff.Which this is. Thanks for bringing fun to the world.

[@rumhave9632]

SICK!! 2 Mandolins 2 Masters Love it.

[@tommy1138]

Thanks for the review. I just bought 2 of these online and wanted to see a video of one before they arrive. Seeing yours, I don't regret it at all! That fan is so sexy that I would keep it out on display even if it stopped working. I bought the brushed silver and light green for 29.99 each. I don't sleep well without white noise in my room, so a fan on low is a must.

[@guitarsadventure7868]

This is my favorite performance, I've ever seen!!

[@VesaGuardian]

I immediately hear two totally different approaches. Sam plays sort of slightly muted notes while Sierra lets the notes vibrate freely, until the next one comes, no matter the rate of progression. Sam Bush appears to have a more traditional stance compared to Sierra. Sam Bush has always has been my favorite mandolin player and a great singer. And here we are at the crossroads. Sierra with her overwhelming prowess of what can be done on the mandolin, and how different tones can be used are an important breath of fresh air.

[@pavelkratochvila6157]

It´s lovely. They make space for a nice smile, joke also for brilliant music. I love it.

[@DubluJbluegrass]

There is lots of music I like, but I was born into Bluegrass. Lil Jimmy Dickens bounced me on his knee at my Grandmas house when I was a little one before his show at the town hall. He knew my family, and as all country folk know, that is what is important. Nothing warms my heart more than the bluegrass sound of mandolin's, fiddle's, banjo's, guitars and vocal harmony. Sorry folks. No other form of music can claim such a fan base as we have.

[@banzospod]

How that audience can sit still to this stuff is beyond me,just watching it on my little phone here in spain want to get me leaping and dancing around the room.great stuff.

[@lindaolson7891]

They're listening carefully to the music.

[@KingSaison]

So much great music at this festival! Going for the first time this year and we can't wait!!

[@craigmonteforte1478]

holy Smokes did you two jam on that one damn I wanted to let you know that I suffered a major stroke 15 years ago that caused me to lose 590 to95 percent of my brains right hemisphere during open heart surgery nd that did result in parts of my body becoming partially paralyzed resulting in a complete lifestyle change of a forced early retirement and my body hs been in chronic pain for years with a headache that never goes away sadly I gave up my love of playing guitar something I did for more than 30 years so KZbin videos like yours are my temporary escape from the pain as I do listen to them very loud with a good pair of studio headphones on so thank you for the great video and music that gave me some peace

I guess once you "know where the strings are", they must be easy to find.

[@allenkennedy6748]

Amen. He deceptively mutes adjoining strings so fast. Imperceptable. He is ideal for recommending to music fans unfamiliar with Bluegrass. He accommodates everyone. They come away feeling they have been aficionados forever. Wonderful.

[@userillusion86]

He gets a serious amount of volume out of the mandolin with that technique. I always love different picking techniques by mandolin and guitar players

[@vetlerradio]

@@userillusion86 Exactly what I thought, he does not sacrifice speed and power with that muting technique.
