TESTIMONIALS
"Steven Hicken Jnr, a pedal steel guitarist from Leeds, was next to join the stage for Lay, Lady, Lay. Dave had spoken earlier about how difficult it had been to find someone who could truly master the instrument. Steven’s performance proved he was the right choice. Several times during the show, Dave stepped back to let Steven take the spotlight, allowing the audience to appreciate the expressive, shimmering tones of the pedal steel." - https://eurythmics-ultimate.com/
