I have something to say to all those in all the Tuttle's videos who say they don't look happy, or are being forced to play, etc, and that is, "You just can't force anyone to have this kind of talent.:"
Apparently the detractors believe that with enough force applied, anyone can play like this? Now that concept in itself is sad. The lack of knowledge, to recognise pure talent within this enviable family unit, is inexcusable. Watch their other vids for a little more foresight into their gifted performance, as they entertain. Stop swallowing the PC nonsense being programed into brainwashed society today. It's so Absurd. Reality is far more interesting and fun, than PC fiction.
@cjhwth81 disgusting. I've been playing over 40 years and can't even come close to this. Great job kids,and believe me,if they can play like this they are certainly not unhappy about it.
Calm down everyone. Try playing an instrument extremely well with others, I bet you'd make some funny faces. I look painfully serious when I play but inside I am beaming.
Yes, undeniably fine playing, but I agree, they look oddly unhappy. I hope they're doing all this to enjoy themselves, and not because they think it's expected of them. That'd be sad.
Nah.. my parents expected me to fly and I never did.... There's no amount of "expectation" that can give you this kind of talent. I don't see them as "sad", I see they have their game faces on. When I play people think I'm yanking hairs out of my nose so I know about making faces : - )
How fortunate you are that your parents have given this to you. I didn't get serious about acoustic until about 15 years ago at age 43. I am now addicted, and it has become my life.
I recently learned the version of "Beaumont Rag" ... note-for-note and up to speed ... that Steve Kaufman has in his Championship Book.
Learning these diciplines early in life will have a major positive impact on one's success in the future ... and the networking is amazing!
your family is a blessing. i can't get enough of this. makes my soul sing. wondering what state your family is from... i'm a little kentucky biased, but talent is talent. bravo. keep it up.
Are your kids homeschooled? Wondering, because if they are, they would have time to play like this! What a musical blessing your children are! Thanks for sharing this video! :)
The kids are serious because they're focused on the music. Watch most musicians' mouths, and facial expressins. They'll "talk" to the instrument. Great playing, great fun...and these kids are having a great time....
Ok, I can only take you at your word that they are having fun. Hope there is laughter at mistakes too. All the best and happy playing!!! ~Mike, who enjoys his trio!
Don't you just love the little Tuttle sitting on the right. Poor kid can just about see over his dreadnaught. Still as my parents allways used to say.."you'll grow into into it".
My kids and I love watching the tuttle kids play. My children are very talented also learning bluegrass guitar and banjo. Thanks for sharing this great talent.
Politicians smile cosmetically, professional musicians concentrate for perfection in their trade. When they have become very proficient, they will laugh and kid around while 'pickin and grinnin'. Keep it up kids, we love ya. daflikkers dot B logspot
First of all, that was a sarcastic comment on what some of you dummies are writing about how these are poor kids that are missing out on life. Of course these are happy well rounded children. You are the dummies that make comments that you have no clue about. Yes I do play. I started piano when I was 10 and I hated it, my parents then let me play what I liked. The guitar. Get a Life
The kids are beaten twice a day even if they do good. That is how you make good musicians. Tehy must be whipped and beaten on a daoly basis and if you miss a day, then you to must be beaten. you dummies.
Hilarious! I'm not sure how people don't get the sarcasm. LOL! It's sort of like the sign I've seen in an office or two "The beatings will continue until morale improves." :)
WOW,YOU GUYS ROCK!! SO LUCKY TO HAVE A DAD THAT CAN LEED YOU TO SUCH GREAT OPERTUNITYS IN LIFE. KEEP ROCKING AND YUR SISTER IT CUTE,"wink" SINCERELY EYAN
the sober expressions could be due to concentration. They may really want to play well for the recording. Lots of smiles in the studio between takes but when the machines are in RECORD often things get real quiet and serious. Give 'em a few years and they'll be able to laught or do anything WHILE executing near flawless playing.
This video is a few years old now and this question has been asked a thousand times. The answer is "no". The Tuttle kids are not forced to play. Friends of the family have posted here and have said the kids love to play. To play well takes an amount of concentration, you can see the kids relax at the end of the song. I wish my parents had been the Tuttles.
You kids make me feel like taking my guitar, smashing it into the wall, and wallowing in self pity for the next two years. All that aside. Well done! You guys have the bluegrass spirit inside you and it makes me happy to see such talent at such a young age. Keep it up friends!
Somebody else said this; that I felt like trowing my guitar out of the window after watching this, but than restraint got the better of me and now I use them as inspiration.
You guys are great, I pretty much agree with the rest of the folks on here, the way you play together and those smiles are awesome. You should be very proud of yourselves.
BRAVO!!! I love kids on Bluegrass!!! 100,000 viewa were from me. LOL, Okay, maybe a hundred. I very much enjoyed all of your videos. I try to play and wish I was half as good. Awesome pickin'
LOL, I thought about throwing my guitar and mandolin in the lake after watching their videos, but I decided to keep on pickin. They did raise the post for my goals. I watch their videos everyday and love it!
Funny, I just saw one vid where these kids were a lot younger. Great playing!!!! Looks like a new Emmanuel family!! Tommy Emmanuel was pro at 6 years old)
