Are you a tenor?

[@Wuddupnyucca]

God i love this cover.

[@Just_Jeff_Tunes]

@@WilliamRaezer I don't think so, Alto is more likely but I'd love her to comment! I'd bet she can sing into the tenor range though =)

[@justenjoilife5625]

I don't normally comment or compliment on youtube videos, but this amazingly well done. I got the Download and now have you in rotation. I have been Playing guitar for 33 years now and I am so happy to finally find someone else that plays with full passion like you do. Love your voice and the feeling you push through. Thanks for being you. Keep yourself and hold onto love.

[@summerwoodsmusic]

@ Thank you so much!! I appreciate your support so much ❤️

[@DnlSwk-b3l]

Let me tell you something. We recognize a good player, musician and singer when they're able to present us a song we've known for years in a unique, new and exciting way. And you've beautifully done this with your TOOL covers. It's amazing how we can re-discover these songs through your voice and playing. You are awesome! Congrats!

[@PunkrockBobFoster]

I discovered tool in 1993. I was full of teenage angst and whatnot. It took until 2024 to hear an acoustic version that will do it justice and be as memorable as it was in 1993.

[@Muzzle801]

You heard the Indian guys on the rooftop covering Right in Two? Holly Shit that's good!

[@leebrock4783]

I just stumbled upon this by accident, and wow. Unexpectedly awesome cover.

[@kyledukes49]

Check out right in two by beards of harmony.

[@Muzzle801]

@@kyledukes49 I second this. Don't tell TOOL... But I prefer it to their version 👀

If Tool fans compliment you, it really means you've done something great... and of course, I'm one of them!

[@kaisersozay8978]

This is true. TOOL fans tend to get a little defensive. So, if we compliment... you've crushed it 🫡

[@jasonguimpaya1838]

For real man. This rendition actually hit me pretty deep haha. Amazing work

[@rhoward2227]

So good. Is it greedy to want a whole album of Summer Woods acoustic Tool covers? Because I think I would enjoy that.

[@williamcozbie1233]

I would only think less of you if you didn’t want that.

[@kaisersozay8978]

That would be great!! But their licensing fees and royalty demands might be the issue here.

[@chepossofare]

Is this what you wanted? Is this what you had in mind?

[@summerwoodsmusic]

oh man hearing her do forty six and two would be fuckin sweet

[@er1675]

Keep the tool coming…. So damn good!!!!!

[@vannoo67]

Absolutely, but try not to get type-cast as a Tool tribute artist. But if you wanted to branch out a little, some Sound Garden or Alice in Chains wouldn't go astray.

Thank you so much!!

I'm sure you left Tool's members speechless 👌

[@nikolaihanuschak191]

Grew up when tools at their Prime and now that I'm 44 I understand their lyrics more than ever before and can relate to them more than ever before. I absolutely love your rendition of tool songs. Continue the incredible work

[@Brousey]

Ummm... They still prime af

I’m fucking speechless and crying. Holy fucking shit, oh my God.

I've played your stinkfist in a loop a thousand times, now you gotta cover tool albums! ❤

[@leevy6753]

Yes...yes.....and more yes!!!!!!

[@justinwhiteley8795]

I've been a fan of TOOL since I was 11. I'm now 42. Not a fan of people covering them for obvious reasons. Mainly no one sounds like Maynard. This is truly beautiful. Thank you 🙏❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@popeshaxx422]

It’s like the most metal thing ever but the most calming song at the same time?! Great job girl! ❤❤❤ can’t wait for a whole tool album of covers!

[@ttrreennttoonn]

Your covers of TOOL really bring out the lyrics - well done! 🔧

Another excellent Tool cover!!!

Great singing!!

[@thomasmennella5501]

Discovered this channel two days ago and seeing this video released today made me happier than a new Mr. Ballen episode. Best Tool cover on KZbin. Amazing!

[@summerwoodsmusic]

Thank you so much Thomas! I’m glad you’re here! Who’s Mr. Ballen?

[@thomasmennella5501]

@@summerwoodsmusic The best storyteller on KZbin. 8.9M subs. Specializing in “the strange, dark and mysterious delivered in story format.” He’s pretty awesome (but he can’t hold his own on a Tool cover 😉)

[@asafnadler]

These acoustic TOOL covers are brilliant!

[@summerwoodsmusic]

Thank you so much! You’re the best Asaf!! There are more where that came from ❤️

[@deanmass]

I love that you are taking things that are unusual to cover acoustically and crushing them.

[@ryanmcananey6245]

Her voice is incredible. Raw power with crazy control. Amazing

[@CJ-6993]

I'm 62 and had my last drink in December 1989. I think I understand some of these lyrics. There is a point in your drinking journey where you cant stop, but you don't really enjoy it anymore. Maybe went to a few meetings, relapsed a few times and that's gonna at least make the drinking not so fun. He wants to start over again because in the beginning it WAS fun. But towards the end you either get sober (which isn't easy) or you keep drinking (which also isn't easy). Been there. Done that.

[@sscustoms4842]

You absolutely nailed this one. Both the vocal performance and the difficult challenge of playing prog metal on a single acoustic. Great job, can’t wait to hear more!

Holy crap, Girl, that was really, really good! Maynard and the guys would love your version, your interpretation of that Iconic TOOL song! Love It! 🖤

All I can say is... well... DAMN!! I thought the original version was emotionally moving, but this... This is haunting and emotional. I am literally moved to tears. Also, I WILL be playing it this way as I learn it now.

Excellent covers. Can tell the music connects with you, enhancing your connection with us. Your voice; pitch, inflection, articulation is so on point. Guitars; capo, tuning, palm muting... delicious. More please.

After hearing your stinkfist I checked out some of your originals. A bit outside my usual listening arena, but what awesome artistry!! I absolutely dig that you carry a style that clearly has influence, yet is very uniquely you. Thank you for making the covers free downloads also, that is awesome! Keep being you, and rock on!!!! 👍

this is amazing you nail every pitch and every vocal melody. whenever i cover a song i strive to give it justice to the original. u did just that. lmk when u wanna do some campfire jam sessions:P

I was so excited to see this notification hit my feed this morning. Well done Summer. The video editing is spot on in transitions . 👏 Maynard would approve.

[@thejbc1128]

So Good. Tears to my eyes.

[@markRgroene]

Another awesome Tool cover! I think I said this on one of her older videos but I'm not generally a fan of covers. That goes all out the window for Summer Woods. She's the only one I get excited for when there's a new cover a song. It also helps that she does some of my favorite song by bands/artists I've been listening too for most of my life. Her original work is great too.

[@JargoniusMaximus]

I've listened to T00L... in the Summer... in the Woods... but something about Summer Woods covering T00L... just hits different. Bravissima 🙏🏼 Keep em comin'

[@ReverendWaynard]

Your vocal characteristics compliment these lyrics so well. Thank you for going hard! I will listen again.

[@ronnieblanchet4072]

One of my favorite songs to love and hate-such an awesome arrangement, lyrically it’s a puzzle that has the possibility to refute itself and just enough truth to deceive the person not listening close enough, but as aide from Tool-You KILLED IT! I dig your God given Grace! Look forward to hearing you again. God bless you’s! SOLI DEO GLORIA (To The Glory Of God Alone) Father, Son & Holy Spirit -Ronnie
