TEAM Sho-Bud Artist

Dave Farrell

Steel crazy after all these years.

Bio

I live in San Diego, CA & am blessed with the opportunity to play with many great local bands/artists.
I started playing guitar at age 12 & learned to play bass, blues harp & mandolin along the way.

I first saw a pedal steel up close in 2006 when Doug Meyer joined my band in the recording studio with his Sho~Bud D-10 Professional. He blew our minds & made me cry.
When I finally bought a pedal steel I was terrified of it. After some time, curiosity got the best of me & I started my journey. As soon as I could play a few chords, I joined 2 local bands & jumped in the frying pan.
I’ve been steelin for 9 years now & I’m obsessed.

It’s my distinct honor to join the Sho~Bud team of amazing people & artists.
