We posted our version of “Shenandoah“ six years ago on YouTube before Emmett was performing with us full-time. The family worked the song up again before traveling to Europe and we decided it was definitely time for a YouTube refresh. We had to drive a UTV off-road vehicle to make it to the filming location and mom drew the short straw with Matt as the driver haha.

Like many traditional folk songs, there are different versions of the lyrics, but these ones refer to a trader falling in love with the daughter of the Oneida chief Shenandoah. In the mid-1800s, the song made its way down the Mississippi River and became popular as a sea shanty on ships that traveled the world. ►The Petersens: We celebrate American roots music with family values, and perform full time in Branson, Missouri in the USA.
