Can't believe no one has mentioned Robbie Turner. All over the latest Chris Stapleton/jason Isbell/Sturgill Simpson rekkds

He is over 50

But I think 50 is the new 30 in the world of steel guitar (that's my story and I'm sticking to it)

I just read your original post again. RT has been around for years and is a pretty major guy, not a new. Sorta flies under the radar a leetle bit, though. Started young. Born the same year ('62) but got started about 30 years before me!

Jeremy, your right about Robbie. He's been playing cool stuff for years.. He can do it all..

I really enjoy Ken Champion's playing on the Smog album 'Red Apple Falls'. Anyone that likes Leonard Cohen will dig it.

I also really like the steel playing by Farmer Dave Scher on the Beachwood Sparks albums. It is very psychedelic sounding stuff.

Adam Goodale is a youngster (27 y/o) from central TX, currently playing with Rance Norton and Jason Allen. Previous stint with Jody Nix....he does TX dancehall music quite well.

One of the big reasons I bought a steel!

The second song has two steel tracks harmonizing with each other.

I really dig Steelism for non-traditional steel work and of course there's always Maggie Bjorklund. She's next level non-traditional.

Eddy Dunlap, Brett Robinson, Austin Stewart the list goes on.The younger guys, I think, are gigging and making money.

Lots of new talent out there.....rarely see them at a steel show though.

If you want to hear innovation....Lloyd Green is still squeezing the sponge on new ideas.
