My band, Travel Lanes, just put a new 8 song release last week. Mostly pop and power pop, with extremely catchy songs. I'm very proud of it.
I mostly play guitar all over of it, but I managed to sneak some pedal steel on 3 tracks. This one, in particular, was a real last minute addition, when we were stuck and looking for something to add to the dreaminess and flow of the song. I stayed up super late one night, and sent them a LOT of steel, thinking they'd only mix in a wee bit......but they ended up using it all.
This is my Stage One, straight into Logic Pro X, BTW. Steel starts @ 45 secs....then comes in at the end, as well.

PS.....our own Mike Brenner also plays KILLER lap steel on one track, as well. |

Sounds more like today's country to me! Without that steel think the song would be missing a lot! Steel playing was beautiful!

Hmmm.......not sure about "today's country".....there's no hip-hop beats or trucks involved!! 
Thanks for listening and for the nice words. |

I like it, Jim...nice tune. Reminds me of some of the Whiskeytown stuff.

| Sounds a lot like the old Gram Parsons music. He was known as the father of Country Rock music. Nice tasty stuff you did on steel! |
