Dear fellow lap steelers,

I have made a new album with my collaboration project Kinbom & Kessner, and this time there is quite a bit of lap steel involved - 6 of the 10 tracks feature electric lap steel (one of them being a lap steel instrumental).

The album, called With The Beetles, is all recorded and mixed, and during this month of March we are doing a crowdfunding campaign, to raise the missing money needed for mastering, manufacturing and a modest marketing campaign via pre-orders.

Here is a lap steel-focused trailer video for the album:

The lap steels are a 1937 National New Yorker (in A major tuning - A-C#-E-A-C#-E), and two Lap King Rodeos (one in G minor tuning - D-G-D-G-Bb-D, the other in the same A major tuning as the New Yorker).


You can pre-order the album on CD or LP, and thereby helping us getting it out there in June, here:

There are songs in English, German and even a bit of Swedish on the album, and a wide range of instruments - there is another trailer video in the crowdfunding link above where you can hear some more of the album.



I hope you will enjoy the music and consider supporting our album release by ordering the album in advance or making a donation. All support is very much appreciated!

Thanks for listening!

Fredrik

If there's anyone in Steel-land that wants to take their instrument to somewhere new, get some inspiration from Fred!
Your music always surprises and opens my mind to other places, buddy. -and this effort sounds real interesting!

Last day of our crowdfunding effort for our album, so here's a bump!

Get yourself a CD or LP with plenty of lap steel here:

We have raised €2,375 at present, which is great, but any further support is of course much appreciated!

Thanks for listening.
