Hi, My name is SallyAnn Wallace and I'm 12 years old. We live near Fort Worth, TX I've been playing non-pedal steel guitar for about 8 months and play with my family band. Here's a link to our family website
http://www.wallacefiddlers.com
I've taken a few lessons from Maurice Anderson - he is great. Here is a link to me playing San Antonio Rose. I hesitate to post this here because it was recorded several months ago, and I know that I could do it much better now. On this recording, I am playing steel, mandolin, and one of the fiddle parts.

Here is a picture of my family and me playing at a gig.
I will be at the Texas Show in March to watch, learn, and maybe jam a little.

Good job, SallyAnn. It's great to see such young talent go for it.
Playing the steel will always be something you can speak of proudly.
I am quite sure your dad is very proud of you

| SallyAnn - you have one of the best players in the world as a tutor. You are at an ideal age for learning what you will find is a highly addictive and rewarding instrument in the steel guitar. |
