How can he be so smooth, fluid? Is he the best?
Found another great one - a three-fer! Josh Williams, Andy Falco, and Chris Eldridge playing Cherokee Shuffle. If I could play half as good as these guys I'd be happy.
Just watched this Billy Strings video the other day featuring Michael Cleveland, really great stuff. Would love to see some of yalls favorite country/bluegrass youtube vids! Post some links!
I seen Michael Cleveland playing live at the Omagh Bluegrass Festival,
he was performing Orange Blossom Special, He broke a string on the Fiddle half way
through and finished the rest on Guitar. ( OUTRAGEOUS)
speaking of Billy Strings this just came up on my YouTube recommended videos.

I just noticed Billy is using a Blue Chip Pick LOL 👍
@rinny51 Well of course all the best pickers use a Blue Chip pick. I was reading something the other day about tortoise shell picks and how they had to change over to celluloid and nylon because the poor turtles whose shells they were using were becoming endangered. I don't know what Blue Chip picks are made out of but they sure do work good!
It appears that in this video it is the first time the Bass player has played with them. He doesn't know most of the songs but figures them out when Billy tells him what key the song is in and the numbers of the chord progression.
Billy Strings been playing since he was just a little kid. I have no hope of ever playing as fast as he does. 😉
