We talk to Marty Rifkin - Producer, multi instrumentalist and world renowned Pedal Steel Guitar player. Marty has carved a career in the music industry since moving out to California in the late 1970s to chase his love of music and it has led him to work alongside some of the biggest names in the music world. After several years as a gun for hire on the local Los Angeles circuit, Marty would become the go to guy for contributing Pedal Steel guitar parts to albums by Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen, Weird Al Yankovic and many, many more. Not only does Marty thrive in the studio environment but he is also a dynamic live performer touring alongside Springsteen in his Sessions Band and also performing with Chris Shiflett of the Foo Fighters. At the heart of everything though is simply a true love of music which shines through in Marty's stories and memories.
