Listen to this breathtaking cover of Bob Dylan’s ‘Blowin’ In The Wind’ from The Petersens.
‘How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?’
What an amazing rendition of this song! And The Petersens share on their YouTube page the inspiration behind wanting to perform a cover of ‘Blowin’ In The Wind.’
“In January of 2024, Katie and Julianne went to Ireland to play some of their original songs. After a show, they were jamming with friends in a pub, and Julianne sang this classic Bob Dylan song,” they share in the caption of their YouTube video. “Katie loved it so much that we worked it up as a band and put it in our Spring show in Branson.”
From the harmonizing vocals, the stunning scenery, and the blend of instruments, the whole composition of the music and video are just lovely to see and hear.
“I just keep coming back to this song. I love how The Petersens take an iconic song and make it their own. Their arrangements are amazing. And Julianne's vocals here are perfect for this song,” one person writes online after watching the video. “I grew up listening to Bob Dylan and, to me, this is just a perfect cover of his song.”
“I've been through the 60's when this was so popular and to hear the Petersen's do it again in 2024….beautiful. Thank you and God bless,” comments another person on YouTube.
As for the background of The Petersens, they are an American roots music band based out of Branson, Missouri. The band is made up of four siblings (Katie, Ellen, Matt, and Julianne), their mother, Karen, and dear friend Emmett Franz.
We hope that you enjoyed listening to their wonderful cover of ‘Blowin’ In The Wind’ today!
