Jani Sandvik picks a very cool tune on steel

This dude is a multi-instrumentalist, a multi-linguist and he builds pedal steels too, like the one shown on this clip. Additionally, his talents continue to expand in selecting neat tunes to pick on steel, which is why I wanted to share this with ya'll. BTW, he recorded this tune on his spanking brand new Williams.

Good playing! That tune along with his new guitar must have brought fame and fortune to Jani, cause I think he has gained a little weight since that picture.

Great picking Jani. I am proud to know these fine pickers from Europe, including you my friend. Maybe some of your licks will spill over onto me if I listen long enough!
Gary, thanks for posting this one.
