Thanks for bringing her to our attention. I'd never heard of her before. I wonder how popular her style of music is in Hungary. I can't imagine how country songs sound when they're sung in Magyar. Notice that in that number she only uses the first two pedals. |

I shared her playing Cohen's "Hallelujah" on my Facebook the other day.
Give that a listen. And try to figure out how she hits her chimes so sweet.
I'd say few among us, even top flight pros we look up to, can hit the harmonics like her.
Mine are passable, hers are jaw-dropping. _________________ 2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)

I have seen her vids before.. I like her playing a lot.. Its this weird cross between an pro level
"top gun" player, and an "advanced beginner"...
Some of her licks are really great and others seem half baked.. She is a good player probably on her way to being a great one someday. _________________ I'm over the hill and hittin'rocks on the way down!

Not sure but I think one of her other tunes was shown on here about 8 months ago.
She sure blows away the "keep your elbows in" that I heard repeatedly when starting out. Wonder if I could play like that if I put mine out? |

I'm always turned on by musical women. If all Hungarian women are like her, I'm moving. |

Gee Alan, wasn't there a song about those girls? "Hungary eyes, I feel the magic between you and I....." |

...of couse they mean, "between you and me," not "between you and I," (which is bad grammar). I'm attracted to musical women who write good grammar.
Playing the banjo helps, too. Sorry Bobby Lee. |

So now Alan brings grammar into it. I don't know whether to applaud the good Hungarian steel player, or boo da pest! |

I think she played that super good. Wish I could play like that. _________________ aka "Lucky Kay"--Custom built Rittenberry SD10 3X5, Walker S/S, NV-112, and Hilton Pedal |

That's what I was thinking. She passed the "advanced beginner" stage a long time ago. |

I thought she played very good. I'll bet she is a beginner that hasn't been playing long but doesn't sound like a beginner. This lady is gonna be a notible player when she gets her technique and her own personality In her playing down. Wonder why she watches her right hand, she sure had no trouble hitting the notes. _________________ Henry Matthews

People who can move their head side-to-side when they press the pedals and back and forth when they press the knee levers impress the heck outta me. She plays quite well too - or did so a year and-a-half ago. Did you guys say something mean and scare her off? Hungarians... and Americans, you know... we're so big and soft we can just squish people if we sit on them, when we can catch them first of course - a lot of foreigners are pretty slippery. I think we're pretty scary. |

Mickey you had better luck then I did in trying to contact this fine steel player.
Is she a member of the Steel Forum?
There might be a language problem, she's Hungarian and if she only speaks & writes Hungarian then that could become a communication problem for us here in the USA.
There's are web sites where you can convert English into any language on earth, you write in English a word or two and it will come back in that language you are trying to communicate in.
The way she plays tells me she's has a musical background with other instruments, (just my thought on her totally awesome playing).
Hope she post more of her playing soon
KEN
