Hear Steve play his Carter: sound sample and CD to purchase!
Steve Smith began playing pedal steel guitar at age 15 while living
Steve then had his own band for a few years.
Most recently, Steve toured with Shania Twin.
in Europe with his family.
Later, he played with a Canadian band,
and was picked up very quickly
by an American group, the "Western Rainbows".
Steve's playing intrigued so many that after he returned to Canada,
another steel player, Jack Calhoun, invited him to Florida.
While he taught Jack how to play the steel guitar,
Steve played on "The Grand Ole Opry", backing up numerous stars.
Since his return to Canada, Steve has played with many different groups,
appeared in several TV shows, including 5 years on Ronnie Prophet's TV show.
After that, he went on tour with Carroll Baker for 8 years,
followed by a stint with Tommy Hunter (a 26-year Canadian TV star).
Steve still tours with Tommy Hunter every January all across Canada.
In between times, he does recording sessions with many artists, also TV Commercials.
But the highlight of his career so far was and is, in Steve's own words:
"playing the I.S.G.C. (St. Louis) Convention in August 1999 in St. Louis
and my Carter Steel Guitar!"
