Anyone know who the new PSG guy is who is playing w/ Ryan Adams and the Cardinals? Saw them on Leno the other night and they sounded great!

Jon Graboff has been w/ R.A & the Cardinals for a couple of years now. Far as I know he still is.

There's an article in this month's HARP magazine on Ryan Adams--pics of the band there as well, although I've only barely skimmed the article itself.

There is an Austin City Limits show that replayed about two weeks ago that has some great steel guitar playing by John Graboff,Man what a tone.

I think that's when he was using his JCH. I believe he's using a Pro 1 now.

I recognized the name as Willie Nelson's pedal steel player although Allmusic credits him only on the 2006 "Songbird" album. Was he with Willie Nelson for a while ?

Ryan Adams produced Willie's Songbird album, and the Cardinals were the band. I don't believe they played on the road with Willie, however.
