The picture is a Snowy Tree Cricket for sure! But the sound is coming from a Variable Field Cricket. I could also see that this cricket here wasn't chirping at all, (no movement of the wings).
But nice video anyway! And nice information in the description!
They live in trees and shrubs, for which they are well camouflaged. Like other species of cricket they produce their calling song by rubbing the ridges of their wings together. The chirp (or trill) of a tree cricket is long and continuous and can sometimes be mistaken for the call of a cicada or certain species of frogs. Tree crickets feed on small insects, with aphids being one of their favourite meals.

don't these things make the drawn out sound too.
(I am not thinking of a cicada) The sound sounds a little gentile.
