The Flag City Opry lists the house band steeler as Craig Schmidt. That would be my best guess, and yes, he sounds really good.

Looks like he's a fine singer as well.

Yep! You're right Craig Schmidt from Speaks, Texas. Aaaaannnd, thats my baby girl, Joni Rae Jack. Also the tele picker/singer is her man, Aleph Yonker.
Craig is a fine picker and a real nice guy! Thanks for the thread! On the same page is Aleph singing Workin Man Blues .... check it out. Also David Waters from Billy Mata band on lead. And harmonica player is also a fine steel player named Randy Boyd.

Craig is a fine picker and a fine man. I've had the pleasure of playing with him for many years, and I look forward to the opry every month.
