 Pedal Steel Guitar Players of Hampton Roads, Va.


Justin French at his Carter D-10
Justin B. French is originally from Portsmouth, NH. an has been playing for 40 years on and off. He retired from the Navy in 72 and stayed in Norfok.

Country music is his main interest. He started playing the steel in the early 60's, even had a small band that played in the Navy Base Clubs in Pensacola, FL. 

He quit the steel in 67 but  started again in March 2001 after 33 years.  He now performs at many of the senior facilities in Hampton Roads. In addition to playing a great pedal steel, he also does a great job singing.. Many people have never seen a steel guitar up close. They listen with great joy at the beautiful sounds!
