    Redd Volkaert - guitar and vocals, Adam Clark - drums & Dylan Locke - bass
    From country and western-swing to jazz and rock, Redd Volkaert is considered a true giant of country music and the Telecaster guitar. Redd is a Grammy-winner and a guitar-playing legend who is renowned throughout the country music world and beyond. Volkaert once played in Merle Haggard’s backing band The Strangers in the spot previously manned by Roy Nichols. In addition, he has recorded and performed with a who's who of country music stars such as George Jones, Dolly Parton, Brad Paisley, Dwight Yoakam, Buck Owens, Alison Krauss, Bill Kirchen and many more!
    Originally from Vancouver, Canada, Redd spent more than a decade in Nashville, playing with the likes of Ray Price, The Statler Brothers and eventually behind Merle Haggard. Volkaert moved to Austin, Texas, where he lived for some 20 years, including performing at Austin’s famed Continental Club every weekend. From western-swing to jazz and rock, Redd is considered an icon on the Telecaster with numerous guitar models named after him. In addition to his seamless ability to conjure up a vast array of complex guitar styles, Redd is beloved for his trademark wit and sense of humor. Redd now lives in Galax, Virginia, and performs internationally in addition to his residency at The Floyd Country Store in Floyd, Virginia.

    I play in three-piece bands, and find it very difficult to leave much space in the music. It always sounds to me far too empty if we're not all thrashing away on our instruments, but just look at this! Less is more!

      Try not playing and leaving the bass and drums to hold
      Down the fort. If you don’t hear anything don’t add. Don’t let your muscle memory take over and just play bs. Think it, say it/ sing it play it!

      What Haku said! And if the room has folks dancing, try keying on their aggregate rhythm for phrasing cues. Let your hands follow your eyes and ears. The brain can relax.

    Fellow you know you bad! Bad as in good. I grew up on R&B and Soul, Jazz, Pop, Rock and all that, but after watching Redd jam so masterfully on his guitar along with his awesome bass and drums I am captivated with his extraordinarily entertaining skills!

    Everybody loves chicken picking but I love and grew up on pretty picking like this from some of some great Nashville players . I like the old school picking .. IN and OUT leads .. meaning play your part and get out ... Not jumble a bunch of notes together 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Redd has a pretty decent voice...It must be his very good musical pitch he had since a child faking reading music with his guitar teacher at 12. No wonder he's such a good player, he hears ahead of time what the notes should be...

    I thought Redd said he doesn't bring the old Teles out any more. Sure is a treat seeing and hearing this old gem. The bass is not loud enough and the bass player is confident and a good player. An amp with heavy duty speakers like in the Mark Bass stuff, there should be more bottom...
