I am interested to know how many female steel players there are in the UK.
Can you name any apart from Sarah who I think most of us are aware of.

Hi Roy, there was a band in the local paper last week in Reading called,Band Of Hope, the leader of the band works in a local club as a DJ and states; some call them country, and some call them folk.
There was what looked like a young lady playing the steel, and I wondered if we had any steel guitar dad's who have a young daughter started out on steel in the Reding area.
Will tried to find out more and let you know.
I think they have a website, so will have a look.

Fiona Tomany in Millport , and believe a Neil Young tribute band -Heart of Rust- had a female player, she lives in Bristol area and may have gone to BSS meeting.
