ABBA - Fernando

Postby hickenjr » Sun Apr 12, 2020 6:58 pm

Hey Y’all, Happy Easter! Today I’m covering the famous song “Fernando” originally performed by the Swedish 1970s powerhouse, ABBA! I’d like to dedicate this song to all the steel guitarists out there that have fought against the oppression of pedal steel guitar that has taken place in recent years. Of course, I’d like to dedicate this cover song to the ABBA fans too! I hope you enjoy the video!

Kind Regards, Steven Hicken Jr.
