It was a pleasant surprise when I discovered your Bluegrass rendition of "Amarillo By Morning". I've listened to it probably more than a hundred times. Ms. Jing's performance on the Erhu is very good, performing on a traditional Chinese instrument blends in nicely with the overall performance. I love your Banjo picking too. It sounds awesome & inspiring. I lived in Amarillo, TX for five years & "Amarillo By Morning" is their adopted theme song for the city. I've always liked that song & listening to your Bluegrass performance just adds to the my love for that tune. Thanks so much. Hopefully your group will continue performing country & traditional Bluegrass music in the near future.

That was simply wonderful. That is one of, if not my, favorite songs. You did Terry proud, thank you.
Just found this. What a beautiful song. This'll be getting played in my house regularly now.
I love this. Others have expressed very well how beautiful and skilled all the musicians are. I especially love the banjo and fiddle parts, but it is all wonderful. I hope to hear more from this group.
That works so well. The Erhu captures the song.
I got chills. That is beautiful music!

He sounded like a country music singer! He killed this one!
I’m sooooo happy watching and listening to this. God knew I needed to have a happy evening. Day has been crappy. What a beautiful song and group. God bless them all.
The little boy's guitar is bigger than he is. As cute as cute can get. Beautiful song, beautiful setting and so much talent.
Your music is very calming to my soul thank you my brother's ❤
You, your son and friends should come to the IBMA convention in the city of Raleigh in the state of North Carolina in the United States. Saw that you were a Shultz Award recipient. Congratulations. Consider me a fellow Spirit of music. Your son is doing well on rhythm, Wyatt Rice's album NEW MARKET GAP would be an inspiration for him GET IT SOON. Thank-you & I hope you monetize your channel very soon! 👁️
This is so truly beautiful! Thankyou so much for your contributions to Bluegrass. You make us all very proud!
I sing this at karaoke at our local VFW...... this is very impressive. The oriental violin is awesome. And that youngun on guitar!!! Spectacular! Very well done!
Very beautiful version of one of the greatest country songs. Your talent shines. God bless.

Hello how are you doing today?
I'm loving all of your stuff. I think the erhu is a brilliant addition.
I love you tube because it introduced me to your band , more please, I love you guys Canada 🇨🇦
Chris LeDoux is smiling in heaven listening to this.
The erhu sounded awesome!
Just remarkable!! Here Here to everything good that has been said about this wonderful group. Who knew that such a simple stringed instrument could sing like that!
Fine rendition...the fiddle is haunting ..sounds great
Amazing. You guys did this song justice. Really digging whatever that is playing the fiddle and adding an Eastern flavor. This is really great.
The instrument used for the fiddle. Has such a soothing sound.

Right? It really is soothing, love that description. It’s called an ErHu, literally means ‘Er’ or ‘two’ and ‘Hu’ or ‘string’ in Mandarin Chinese! I was able to visit mainland China in 2012 and got to see it played along with other instruments live in a local band on the street, it was so cool.
Magic ensemble! Congratulations!

Seeing lil man playing got me. God bless you fellas
They don't look like your average country music band, but that was very beautiful! I'm not sure how the little guy could play that big guitar, but he did a great job! Very nice!!
Y'all. this was absolutely beautiful. I am quite impressed by Eric, Alex and Leon - and with Little Fellow Shi Rang ! Virtuoso Ding Jing on erhu ♥ Eric, your banjo picking was fantastic and full of love for the music.
I Love This !!! I Love the Spirit !!! So Beautiful !! Thank You
Wow, that guy on the banjo is really good!!
Beautiful. The little boy on the guitar gives off a bit of a 'kid from Deliverance' vibe.

... my highest praise and respect for making something so beautiful to allow us to feel and share joy.
Absolutely beautiful. A fantastic cover of a classic. Thanks for sharing. 👍👍👏👏🤠
Still can't believe the mellow but bright sound you all managed to create here. It's beautiful! Well done, and well played!
It was a pleasant surprise when I discovered your Bluegrass rendition of "Amarillo By Morning". I've listened to it probably more than a hundred times. Ms. Jing's performance on the Erhu is very good, performing on a traditional Chinese instrument blends in nicely with the overall performance. I love your Banjo picking too. It sounds awesome & inspiring. I lived in Amarillo, TX for five years & "Amarillo By Morning" is their adopted theme song for the city. I've always liked that song & listening to your Bluegrass performance just adds to the my love for that tune. Thanks so much. Hopefully your group will continue performing country & traditional Bluegrass music in the near future.
the world is exploding with evil and corruption, and then this appears. It give me hope. As long as we have young people like this that bring joy to others and ask for nothing in return, there is hope.
Wow! And bamboo in the background. This is just unreal. They have such a beautiful sound! That fiddle is too awesome!
I have loved that song since the 1980s and I'm just learning five string banjo. This was amazing. I had to watch it a few times to appreciate everyone because I kept watching what you were doing on the banjo, Eric. 😊

There is something beautiful about this cover. It brings me peace every time I listen.
Holy cow, this is really special. I’ve played it over and over. Want to add it to my Spotify list, not there (yet?). Anyway, so beautiful!
This is about the best cover ever of this iconic Texas song: GEORGE STRAIT is smiling big!! You are a great bluegrass band. Love the Chinese instruments, they are a fine addition. Keep on going!! Liked and subbed

Smile? these are chinese people, all their folks stories are tragedies. This is the first time I hear that erhu sounds happy, usually it sounds like a crying from a tormented soul.
I think you really convey the feeling of that song. It sounds honest and genuine. Great job
Texas guy here, you guys are breath of fresh air ! The king himself i am sure, is proud !
Holy crap, that is awesome!!!! Just goes to show ya great music has no borders.😀

Hello how are you doing today?
I have watched this 20 times since it came across my feed. No one can touch it. Even the pros.
Now that's a different version of a classic country song.......The sound from that box Fiddle is magical it reminds me of Peruvian Flutes.......
AWESOME! Come to east Tennessee to pick. There's multiple weekly jams on various nights in the Knoxville area. And all are welcome. People would love to see y'all there. There's buttermilk road outside Knoxville, Rocky Branch in Townsend and several other spots in Sevier County.
This might be one of the most American things that I've ever seen. Different people sharing and honoring each others culture through music.
Brillant again, it adds so much more to bluegrass with these talented Chinese musicians. Hard to beat!
A most meaningful gift to us Texans.
Please accept my praise from an old Montana cowboy, that has listened to classic ballad over one hundred times.. absolutely beautiful. Music...the universal language for all mankind.
Such a beautiful performance. ❤

Wonderful rendition, haven't heard this song in ages, now it will be on my mind for a long time.
Sweet Bluegrass sound. Keep up the that sweet music
Hats off to five talented musicians! A great sound…true and pure. I particularly liked the camera attention to each as they played. Very competent and focused. Where a violin or fiddle is played in other covers, the erhu really evokes the emotion…clear, haunting at times. Thank you for posting this. I’ve listened to it 5 times since finding it an hour ago.
Great playing and singing. Also, what a beautiful place to be record your music.
Love great music. Thanks
The Asian bluegrass band was unexpected. Very cool!
Freakin' awesome! Fantastic job with a George Strait standard! ( I am from Central Texas, near Austin.)
This is one of my favorite song from back in my day and y'all did it justice
Wow, how unexpected! I am overjoyed! Awesome! If I could give more than one thumbs up. Even the singing was just superb!
