Hi all,
I will be playing pedal steel with a duo called Few Miles South at the Heartwood Soundstage in Gainesville on Friday, June 21st at 8:00 p.m. They are based out of Blakely, GA and have written some great original country music.
Here is a write-up of their style:
Few Miles South is “bringing back that classic, country sound and honky-tonk atmosphere” (Skope Magazine).
The group was created by south Georgia raised Blake English and Los Angeles native Tori Lund, who began writing together in 2014 with intentions to shop songs to other artists. After a couple years bonding with their catalog they decided to wrangle up some local musicians and form a band. FMS can be found performing and road tripping around the U.S., while raising their dogs.
We will be setting aside part of the listening room for dancing, so put on your best boots and come on out for a night on the town!
Here is a link for the show:

You can also check out their music on Spotify and any of your favorite music listening platforms.
Come on out and see us, and make sure you say "Hi". I would love to meet other SteelGuitarForum members. 
Thanks,

Great group. I was hoping it was Gainesville, GA  . Boo Bernstein played some great stuff on their videos. Have fun!

Bill, I totally forgot there is a Gainesville in GA.  I edited the subject line to say FL.
And yes, Boo played great licks and solos on most of their tracks. He was kind enough to send me a recording with an explanation of how to played the solo on Lady Irma. It's really fast and I have to fake some of it!
Jim, maybe you need to make a trip back to your old stomping grounds to see how much it's changed in 35 years!

Yeah, imagine my surprise when I learned that Tom Petty was from there...

We had really good show at the Heartwood Soundstage. What a great venue. We'll be going back as a full band in the future. I thought I'd share a photo that was taken at the show by Red Pepper Photography.
