(bell dings) Hello, everybody!

(audience members cheering) This is a really- - [Audience Member 1] Howdy!

- Howdy!

(laughing) This is a really beautiful venue, and I've been in a here a couple times to watch some people play in the past six or seven years I've been kind of in Nashville.

And it's really nice to be up onstage.

(audience members clap and cheer) And now we're gonna do a song that's about a little bit of a heartbreak, but also of a realization that, you know, life goes on.

"The Bells of Every Chapel"!

(bell dings) - A one, two, three, a one, two.

(band plays country music) ♪ I swear the bells in every chapel ♪ ♪ They were ringing the day that I met you ♪ ♪ From high in the trees ♪ ♪ Birds were singing ♪ ♪ Singing of you and me ♪ ♪ From deep in the crowd ♪ ♪ You were glowing ♪ ♪ You were glowing without even knowing ♪ ♪ And so from way over here ♪ ♪ It looked crystal clear ♪ ♪ That you were the one for me ♪ ♪ But life, it ain't so simple ♪ ♪ No life, it ain't so kind ♪ ♪ Yes, life can you lead you somewhere ♪ ♪ To be all alone ♪ ♪ You're crying, crying, crying ♪ ♪ I swear the bells in every chapel ♪ ♪ They were ringing the day that I met you ♪ ♪ Well, they were ringing so clear ♪ ♪ You couldn't hear ♪ ♪ And your heart would never be mine, no ♪ ♪ I swear the lilies in every valley ♪ ♪ They were blooming the day that you touched me ♪ ♪ Yes, back when you took my hand ♪ ♪ And it was there that you told me ♪ ♪ That one day I would understand ♪ ♪ But now I'm much older ♪ ♪ And suddenly I see just now ♪ ♪ What you were talking about ♪ ♪ And still from way over here now ♪ ♪ Looked crystal clear ♪ ♪ You were the one for me ♪ ♪ But life, it ain't so simple ♪ ♪ No life, it ain't so kind ♪ ♪ Yes, love could lead you somewhere ♪ ♪ To be all alone ♪ ♪ You're crying, crying, crying ♪ ♪ I swear the bells in every chapel ♪ ♪ They were ringing the day that I met you ♪ ♪ Well they were ringing so clear now ♪ ♪ You couldn't hear ♪ ♪ Your heart could never be mine ♪ ♪ Oh, say it now ♪ (band continues playing country music) ♪ But life, it ain't so simple ♪ ♪ No life, it ain't so kind ♪ ♪ Yes, life could lead you somewhere ♪ ♪ To be all alone ♪ ♪ You're crying, crying, crying ♪ ♪ I swear the bells inside every single chapel ♪ ♪ They were ringing the day that I met you ♪ ♪ They were ringing so clear ♪ ♪ You couldn't hear now ♪ ♪ And your heart could never be mine ♪ ♪ Ooh ♪ (audience cheering) (audience applauding) (bells ringing) - [Audience Member 2] Yes, ma'am!

- This is an old time fiddle song, and this has to do with actually Nashville, Tennessee.

Well, more of like Cheatham County.

And you'll hear that in the song.

And it's a pretty deep meaning behind this song, and if you wanna go ahead and dig for that, you can.

And here's a song called "Chittlin' Cookin' Time In Cheatham County".

(audience members cheer and clap) (band playing slow country music) (band continues playing slow country music) ♪ There's a quiet and a peaceful county ♪ ♪ In the state of Tennessee ♪ ♪ You will find it in a book now ♪ ♪ That they call geography ♪ ♪ Not famous for its farming ♪ ♪ It's either mining, or it's stills ♪ ♪ But I know that there's chittlin's cookin' ♪ ♪ In them Cheatham County hills ♪ ♪ Well it's chittlin' cooking time in Cheatham County ♪ ♪ I'll be courtin' in them Cheatham County hills ♪ ♪ And I'll pick a Cheatham County chittlin' cooker ♪ ♪ I've got a longin' that the chittlin's will feed ♪ ♪ There's an art in chittlin' cooking ♪ ♪ And in all good chittlin' cooks ♪ ♪ You must master it by practice ♪ ♪ 'Cause it ain't renowned in books ♪ ♪ But in the hills of Cheatham County ♪ ♪ In sunny Tennessee ♪ ♪ When the chittlin's are in season ♪ ♪ Well, that's where I long to be ♪ ♪ When it's chittlin' cookin' time in Cheatham County ♪ ♪ I'll be courtin' in them Cheatham County hills ♪ ♪ And I'll pick a Cheatham County chittlin' cooker ♪ ♪ I've a longin' that the chittlin's will fill ♪ (Sierra whooping) (audience members cheer) (band continues playing country music) (band continues playing country music) ♪ And of all good things that lay before me ♪ ♪ Well, I think chittlin's are the best ♪ ♪ And when I press that dying pillow ♪ ♪ Let chittlin's be my last request ♪ ♪ Hell, it's chittlin' cookin' time in Cheatham County ♪ ♪ I'll be courtin' in them Cheatham County hills ♪ ♪ And I'll pick a Cheatham County chittlin' cooker ♪ ♪ I've a longin' that the chittlin's will fill ♪ ♪ I've a longin' that the chittlin's will fill ♪ (audience cheering) (audience applauding) This is more of like paying refuge to how things used to be, you know?

Like we take for granted everything we've got.

And then we've got is kind of also a little insanity, but I am happy to be alive and here, and a part of the human experience, and here we go.

(laughing) And here's a song called "Fox Hunt".

(audience members cheer) (Sierra plays fiddle) (drummer counts beat) (band playing lively country music) (band continues playing lively country music) ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Take the path down to the river ♪ ♪ It is hunting time ♪ ♪ Clothe the kids and feed the children ♪ ♪ Oh, the meat is fine ♪ ♪ Don't let them dogs out of your sight ♪ ♪ Don't let them slip through your hands ♪ ♪ Chase the fox down through the pine ♪ ♪ Through the cold river bend ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Well take the path down to the river ♪ ♪ It is hunting time ♪ ♪ Clothe the kids and feed the children ♪ ♪ Oh, the meat is fine ♪ ♪ Don't let them dogs out of your sight ♪ ♪ Don't let them slip through your hands ♪ ♪ Just chase that fox down through the pine ♪ ♪ Through the cold river bend ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ I'm just a hunter, ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Just trying to survive, ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ With a gun in hand and my man ♪ ♪ We go into the woods ♪ ♪ I know just what I need to do ♪ ♪ And yes, it's understood ♪ ♪ Rumbling bellies, shaking limbs ♪ ♪ We're gonna try and make a stand ♪ ♪ No, we're not going anywhere ♪ ♪ Without a prize from the land ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ I'm just a hunter, ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Just trying to survive, ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Whoo ♪ (band continues playing lively country music) ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ Ooh, ooh ♪ ♪ I'm just a hunter ♪ ♪ Just trying to survive ♪ (audience cheering) (audience applauding) We're about to do another new song here that's gonna be on the record coming out.

(audience cheering) And it has to do with a train, and that's why I brought that up.

It wasn't just because I think about them too much.

(audience laughing) And this is a song I actually wrote with Chris Scruggs, and this is called "Money Train".
