Truetone Lounge | Paul Franklin | Part One

Paul Franklin is arguably the greatest modern innovator of the pedal steel guitar. Like his hero, Buddy Emmons, he has taken the pedal steel to new technical heights and exposed the instrument to many genres outside of country music. In our Truetone Lounge interview, we cover both his work in country music, and his groundbreaking steel playing outside of the genre with artists as diverse as Dire Straits, Sting, Barbara Streisand, and Megadeth.
