Watch Sierra Ferrell Perform a Stunning Cover of the Kris Kristofferson-Penned Classic “Me and Bobby McGee”

Rising country star and powerhouse vocalist Sierra Ferrell is currently on her Shoot for the Moon Tour. Last Friday (March 8), the trek took her to The Warfield in San Francisco, California. While there, she wowed the crowd with a stunning cover of “Me and Bobby McGee.” Watch her performance below.

Ferrell and her band delivered a country cover of the Kris Kristofferson-penned Janis Joplin hit. For most of the song, she relied on her usual—and stunning—vocal style. However, at key moments of the song, she dug deep and found her inner Joplin, adding the legend’s gritty blues-infused tone to her already stellar voice. Performances like this one are why Ferrell’s star continues to rise in the country world.
