Steel guitar
Steel guitarist Rose Sinclair currently works with guitarist Sophia Johnson in a twin guitar western swing project called Ida Red. Rose also fronts her own quintet playing “cocktail steel” — a mix of big band jazz and western swing, as well as an ensemble with Rose and Dave Biller on steel guitars called Electric Table. Rose curates Steel Monday, a weekly steel guitar residency at Sam’s Town Point, Austin, TX. She toured with Wayne Hancock from 2014-19 in the U.S., Spain and Brazil and appears on his CD, “Slingin’ Rhythm” [Bloodshot Records]. In 2018, Rose was voted Steel Guitar Player of the Year by the Texas Steel Guitar Association.
