Nathan Fleming on That's How I Got to Memphis

Post by Travis Bubenik »

From what I can find it's him on this Charley Crockett cover (correct me if I'm wrong), which I've somehow never heard 'til now. Such beautiful, creative and dynamic playing here - wow:

Yes that is Nathan on ALL Charley's albums. So proud of Nathan; he was one of my first Students back in 1997 and it was my opinion he was Meant to play pedal Steel Guitar from Birth; ONward.

So good. Nathan is the man. I've heard a lot of his work with Charley and it's all superb.

Fine playing by Nathan. That sure looks like James Hand in the video. RIP.

There are only two options as I see it.
Either I'm right, or there is a sinister conspiracy to conceal the fact that I'm right.

Some nice playing by Nathan on Charley's latest Austin City Limits show which aired last night on my local pbs station. "...got to Memphis" is not on the broadcast show though.
