Jeff.....yes I was playing with Pam back then and we opened for George Strait as well

It's great to see people still interested in Highway 101 and posting about it on the forum! My time with 101 was short lived since I joined in '89 just before Paulette left.
We did so many dates (ove ...

Hi Chuck. I'll be playing downtown Friday night at The Full Moon Saloon from 6:30-10pm and Saturday morning at Paradise Park with the Good Ole Boys from 10am-2pm. Legit old school country with a few b ...

Geez Gary....now I feel bad. I was just kidding back with you! Are you still involved with the sponge bob soundtrack? I was thinking recently about how we met during the country rock era in southern C ...

Chris......I had help from a friend with the new website but it's a do it yourself site builder at hostbaby.com which is part of cdbaby.com

You're a funny man Gary Brandin! Glad to see you STILL have a full head of hair. By the way, I used to love sneaking in to watch you play with your band GARY BRANDIN and the BRANDIN' IRONS. I seem to ...

Hi Ray. I actually ended up having Paul Beard build me a seven-string resonator guitar which has the fourth string tuned to E. It's basically a standard G dobro tuning with an E string located in the ...

Hey Jerry. Thank you for the incredibly nice compliments. Those days playing with Danny Michaels were amazing! When I joined Danny I could barely even tune the C6 neck, let alone play it. Thanks to Da ...

Hey y'all. My newly redesigned website is up and running at www.resophonicrecords.com

Yes....I did perform the Concerto for Pedal Steel at the Ryman with the Nashville Chamber Orchestra. It was written by Michael Levine from Los Angeles and was a very complex piece of music. In spite o ...

I'm wondering if it was perhaps Pete Drake and not Curly Chalker who played steel along with the piccolo on Simon & Garfunkle's "THE BOXER." The Boxer was on the final studio album they ...

This is awesome hearing from so many of my friends on here again! Would have responded sooner but I'm out with B & D and we're hitting it hot and heavy. HOT would be the key word here today in Dal ...

Brett.....I've sold all but two of my Sho Bud pro II guitars and I keep them as a backup. I've switched to playing the Desert Rose full time. Yes, I'm familiar with the Jackson and actually tried one ...

Man....I'd forgotten all about that song until you mentioned it. It was sort of in the POCO vein. I may have to look that one up and brush the dust off of it!

Hey Stu....great to hear from you! After experimenting for awhile I finally settled on using a larger bass bow and bass rosin. I primarily played on the first string (F#) and it didn't have any negati ...

Mitch...I nearly always have the compressor on. The Keeley is perfect for my set-up and when I take it out I always miss the effect it adds. All compressors are not created equal. If you have an oppor ...

Ron.....I use both delays on pedal steel. Typically the DE-7 is set on a short delay for mid to up-tempo songs and the MXR carbon copy is set for long delay primarily for lush ballad tones. On occasio ...

I forgot to mention that Jason Aldean is opening for us on most of our concerts and he now has Jay Jackson playing steel for him. Jay also plays a Desert Rose on the tour.

I would like to thank everyone here for all of the nice comments and compliments. The tribute show was a pleasure to play on. There were several questions posted here and I'll do my best to answer all ...

Dave, you are correct about there being some confusion as to who played on the Pam Tillis song Maybe It Was Memphis. The answer is BOTH of us...lol. The original cd version had a guitar solo by Jon Jo ...

I've been using Jagwire Strings for the past few years and have to agree that they are the best string for pedal steel ever made. They last a long time and stay in tune consistently. I've also been us ...

Hello back y'all and I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

I've been asked several times recently about who played steel on the new Brooks & Dunn single "Cowgirls Don't Cry" since I record and tour with them. Thought I would post here to clear u ...
