About BILLY STRINGS:

Michigan-born and now Nashville-based, Billy Strings is a GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician, who arrived on the scene as “one of string music’s most dynamic young stars” (Rolling Stone). Strings is in the midst of a triumphant year after winning Best Bluegrass Album at the 63rd GRAMMY Awards for his critically acclaimed record, Home. Produced by Glenn Brown, the record also led Strings to top Billboard’s 2020 year-end charts in both Bluegrass categories—Top Bluegrass Artists and Top Bluegrass Albums—and continues to receive widespread critical acclaim. Of the release, The Associated Press proclaims, “it is his creative musical storytelling, paired with solid vocals on Home that should seal the deal, pleasing fans of the genre and creating some new ones…the perfect blend of pure talent and pluck,” while The Wall Street Journal declares, “Billy Strings has clearly emerged as a premier guitar flatpicker of this era.” Since his debut, Strings has been awarded Guitar Player of the Year and New Artist of the Year at the 2019 International Bluegrass Music Awards, selected as one of Rolling Stone’s “New Country Artists to Know” and performed on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and PBS’ “Bluegrass Underground.” Known for his electric live shows, Strings will continue his extensive headline tour throughout 2021 including upcoming shows in Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago, Denver, Austin, Atlanta and Nashville among several others.

"Globe” Lyrics

Fences:

I want a lock of your hair

I’m pretty sure it cures disease

All you gotta do is lay your hands on me

Until the illness leaves

I want us to be happy

Live better than our families

All we gotta do is lay beside the creek

Until we grow a tree

Fences/Strings:

We’re swimming in the rivers and

We’re driving on the roads

We’re always moving forward like a fly

Upon a globe

Fences:

I swear I’ll try to believe

You love me just how god made me

A lack of faith, a man with no belief

Who passes in his sleep

And I’ll be your Kentucky

Pressed in your book, a dried up leaf

All you gotta do is promise to read me

Though chapters may be brief

Fences/Strings:

We’re swimming in the rivers and

We’re driving on the roads

We’re always moving forward like a fly

Upon a globe

Strings:

When I wake up with a fever

It must have been a dream I can’t recall

It always feels like the rain is coming down

As soon as I come up

When I’m freezin’ through the evenin’

Your heart is burning like an anthracite

It quickens me in spite of

All Decembers’ wrath

Throughout the aftermath

Fences/Strings:

Swimming in the rivers and

We’re driving on the roads

We’re always moving forward like a fly

Upon a globe

We’re swimming in the rivers and

We’re driving on the roads

We’re always moving forward like a fly

Upon a globe

Strings:

When you cross the stream

Well you do so to find me

And walk along the salmon like psalm

And the steps you take

My break me without warning

And remind me of the sorrow in the song

Fences/Strings:

Swimming in the rivers and

We’re driving on the roads

We’re always moving forward like a fly

Upon a globe

We’re swimming in the rivers and

We’re driving on the roads

We’re always moving forward like a fly

Upon a globe
