I have only recently taken up pedal steel, but have progressed enough (I think) to start playing with others. I think I would learn a lot faster in a band context. I have a day job so I can't make a full time commitment, but I can gig/record evenings and weekends in the S Wales area. Has anybody got good ideas about how to find other musicians? I would be most interested in country, country rock, and americana.
I have played in many other types of bands for years and currently play dobro in a bluegrass band, but I'm stumped when it comes to finding an outlet for my steel playing. The bluegrass band wouldn't allow any electric instruments around. Should I put up a card in a music shop or advertise in Join My Band? Any advice you can offer would be great.
