Does anyone do just a duo?
Those of you that play in a loud band can know how flusterating it can be to be heard and find your own voice. The cacophany of sound can be distracting and overwhelming as you're trying to fit in. How many of you have tried simple duo style playing -- just guitar and steel? To me it has been liberating and productive. I am enjoying playing PSG now more than ever.
Please listen to my music page and become one of my Reverbnation friends.
This just a one off -- no retake. Paid $40 and took about an hour. My friend and duo partner Paul Jameson played the guitar and did vocals. JigWiggler did a good mix for an hour's time in and out.
.... lemme know what you think.

Re: Does anyone do just a duo?
I agree. I'm still looking for mine, but doing open-ended freestyle jamming with just a guitar player gave me a lot of clarity about the musical identity of the pedal steel and how I can express it.Donald Moxley wrote:...and find your own voice.

Great sound you guys got there, Don. Very professional! I bet you get a lot of work.
I think everyone knows about my duo, Wine Country Swing. Our first CD took several months in my home studio. Our latest was recorded live at a restaurant gig, complete with clanking dishes in the background!

I think you did a very good job. By the way, here's a couple of guys doing a pretty good duo, also.
