Brushy One String - Life is for Every Man

[spike123411]

omg, i legit have that same hat

[riseupmovie]

@spike123411 no way, what hat is it???

[spike123411]

@riseupmovie No idea, I got mine at a costume store a few years ago

[codyawhited]

We could all learn from playing one string and one string only.

[riseupmovie]

@codyawhited yeah, that probably goes for many things in life. Simple is better.

[davidphilipsmusic]

Imagine being his guitar tech!

[KiMonostereo]

i wonder what brand of string he endorses

[riseupmovie]

@KiMonostereo good question!

[TauKotoni]

You got a little buzz there buddy!

[riseupmovie]

@TauKotoni you think so? lol

[TauKotoni]

@riseupmovie

Yea! Can't you tell? The buzz houever doesn't make this artist any less interesting! I think the way he plays usingonly one string is pretty amazing. It reminds me the days when i first started to play guitar. I "played" everything on one string, but this guy is the real thing!

[riseupmovie]

@TauKotoni yeah, the buzz is part of the charm I think

[alexandre1129]

Come To UK!

[riseupmovie]

@alexandre1129 I will! Looking into July/August. Any ideas on where I can play?

[dereklky]

Amazing!

[riseupmovie]

@dereklky :)

[mbird23]

just imagine if he had 2 strings

[riseupmovie]

@mbird23 Ha!

[muchosmerc]

@mbird23 I shit you not, I have never laughed so hard at a youtube comment before.

[dmc5446]

so simple, i love it

[riseupmovie]

@dmc5446 less is more :)

[ErnieBall94]

This Man is a GENIUS *.*

[riseupmovie]

@ErnieBall94 thanks man. soon to tour the world!

[ociosu]

Bueno!

[manmeteencoolenaam]

Just imagine what would happen if he broke that string

[riseupmovie]

@manmeteencoolenaam you can actually see it on another video, brushy's string breaks on camera!

[Rougarou13]

I hope this guy never gives up his dreams! I've been making my drum-set smaller and smaller and its funny, theres less stress and I feel more creative. This guy plays one string and has more emotion than most 6 string guitar players, go figure. Life's about doing what you love and loving what you do, not trying to be flashy.

[riseupmovie]

@Rougarou13 exactly. That's what it's about, yet society keeps asking for something else. It's all a reversal.

[electronaut21]

just came across this while listening to rl burnside. good stuff man

[meowtothepowerof7]

wow, amazing

[thesloth16]

This is Darius Rucker after 5 years of crack use, and the loss of 5 strings.

[raz2daking]

46.628 views, Wow keep up the work brushy and all the riseup team!. Bless up

[riseupmovie]

@raz2daking thanks mon. on the rise!

[pmostinski1]

besides the lyrics, not too original. yeah it sounded cool 2 videos ago, but not really anymore. I really do think this guy could sound really interesting if he either played a properly strung tuned guitar, or like recorded like himself playing 2 different melodies, or something. idk, not my cup of tea. Its just simple.

[ScthytheRoses]

yeahhhh this man gots real talent ;) congratulations from spain!

[riseupmovie]

@ScthytheRoses gracias tio/tia!

[statenisland27a]

beutiful song, it shows that no matter where your from you can just love life.

[tacomuybueno]

my new favorite song!

[riseupmovie]

@tacomuybueno get the full version on amazon/itunes!

[WiseGuy257]

I would give my left nut to have his laugh and talents! Respect!

[riseupmovie]

@WiseGuy257 that's a compliment if I ever heard one. Thanks mon!

[GrowTheCaine]

Have you ever thought of building your own guitar made for just one string?

[riseupmovie]

@GrowTheCaine not really. this worx!

[ubercoolmanna]

i supported you by buying your album on itunes

[riseupmovie]

@ubercoolmanna much respect

[ArizonaMMJ]

Pretty much stolen directly from Adele

[daviddaimary7734]

@ArizonaMMJ troll

[DarkFottloch]

i hate black people. theyve got amazing voices. why didnt i meet a black guy who wanted to sing for me before?

[ixlikexscurvy]

tabs please.

[posejdonzeus12]

@ixlikexscurvy use ears!!!

[ixlikexscurvy]

@posejdonzeus12 i was being sarcastic lol...

[Euph0ricacid]

gutts if he broke a string lol

[SuperHeavyhitter420]

his lips have lips! keep rocking man!

[riseupmovie]

@SuperHeavyhitter420 thanx!

[mrgoodvibrations]

That fret buzz enhances the whole experiance, I think he is 'Experianced'!

[riseupmovie]

@mrgoodvibrations yeah, it's kinda good

[MaynnTheMarshmallow]

This is how real music is created. Unlike the shit thats played over and over again on the radio. This kind of music comes from the bottom of our hearts, real passion is what we really need in this world right now.

[riseupmovie]

@MaynnTheMarshmallow very true

[mrgoodvibrations]

@MaynnTheMarshmallow you got that right!

[MrBennubennu]

Sorry, couldn't resist the temptation to be the first dislike,

[Pigeon55]

Less is More, peace : ))

[riseupmovie]

@Pigeon55 most definitely! thanks.

[eldervinnie]

It's a Fender.. lol nice!

[Hewachee1]

Thank you!

[XcatisX]

I almost cried. This man is what every man should aspire to be.

[riseupmovie]

@XcatisX thanks so much, there's so much truth in that.

[Songbreaker6]

hehe



[Songbreaker6]

Mr. One String i come one day to make music with you. if you like that..

[riseupmovie]

@Songbreaker6 me like it!

[Nosek8]

What cam did you use to record it?

[riseupmovie]

@Nosek8 what's your wild guess?

[Nosek8]

@riseupmovie canon 550D or something close to it :)

[riseupmovie]

@Nosek8 just one of those 5's would do :)

[Nosek8]

@riseupmovie thanks

[danielROTP]

veryy good. at least he doesnt need to tune the other strings haha.

[JamesStorey09]

So glad he is finally getting out there a bit more! FUCK YES!

[riseupmovie]

@JamesStorey09 and this is just the beginning!!!

[JamesStorey09]

@riseupmovie So happy for the man! He has music and soul, let's get him round the world with that! It's needing a bit of it now i think lol

[riseupmovie]

@JamesStorey09 for sure, we are on it!

[Swankman]

it sounds sick but that man needs 5 more to add to his canvas.

[defmanz]

somebody tell him to raise the bridge to get rid of that buzz!! or just get a bass, he's using bass string.

[kilgorexx]

Is there anywhere I can buy a physical album?

[triker53]

I time I've heard this man........excellent, moving and addictive

[riseupmovie]

@triker53 very well put. definitely addictive! pure soulful vibes.

[mountainlionify]

He will be a successful staple in the music of folk hero's! He will have his days in the sun!

[Tasmainiandevil88]

What happens if that string breaks? Does he just drum on his guitar?

[riseupmovie]

@Tasmainiandevil88 check out the other video of his string breaking!

[cutdownsideways]

this guy has more talent in one string than Justin Beiber has in an entire recording studio.

[TheDreamsseller]

@cutdownsideways very true this man lives and breathes his music its sucks how guys like him with actual talent get squat and fuck wits like justin beiber get evrything ITS WRONG

[riseupmovie]

@cutdownsideways Ha, that's too funny man!

[FlammyMcFlammington]

@cutdownsideways

No comparison. why'd you even mention him? I had managed to forget that name no its in my head again thanks

[MrCraigary123]

Yes!

[KicksAssify]

Man, this man is fantastic!! He has such a deep relaxing and soulful tone that you can't help but want to listen to him!!! I hope he has all the success he deserves but doesn't loose who he is.

Thank you for your gift of music and your songs!!!

[riseupmovie]
