Is Steve Hinson on the Randy Travis Tour

Post by Craig Stock »

Hi, Am going to see The Randy show tonight in Morristown, NJ and was wondering if Steve is on the tour, it says his original band is touring, and I know Steve was with him for a big part of his career.

Thanks for any info!
Regards, Craig

Steve is on the tour, playing steel. He's either playing ShowPro or Emmons steels

Thanks Brett, should be a great show!

The show was really great, so cool to see Randy's original band play all those great songs along with singer James Depre'.

The way the show was put together was interesting, and very entertaining.

Randy and his wife sat on chairs on the side of the stage for the whole show, right next to Steve, you could see Randy's approval of Steve's playing throughout the show.

Steve played great, on his single Black Emmons, and sounded great, did some cool Dobro effect a a bunch of songs.

Was nice the say a brief hello to Steve after the show. I'm glad we went!

Thanks Steve!
Regards, Craig

Great to meet you in person,Craig...I've always enjoyed your posts/comments here...

Glad you enjoyed the show-Randy and his wife Mary are great people, and I'm glad they still let me hang around(41 years now)!

Thanks for your kind words, and for taking the time to come up and say hello!

Best,
SH

Steve is one of Nashville's best players. He always gets the job done. 41 years is an impressive time with one artist, especially one as popular as Randy.
