60 Strings is an all pedal steel trio. Justin Brown, Jordan Martins and Sam Wagster play three double neck pedal steel guitars with no effects or signal processing, showcasing the unique sound and expressive possibilities of the steel guitar. The group creates layered immersive patterns, orchestral textures, hazy vistas, and musical paradoxes.
