"After years of session and live work in Los Angeles and Nashville, red-headed Canadian Telecaster virtuoso Redd Volkaert joined Merle Haggard and the Strangers in 1997, perfectly channeling the sound and technique of Roy Nichols—and then some. His fleet-fingered mastery of Telecaster twang—often clean and sometimes with a touch of overdrive—effortlessly blends country, rock, jazz, swing, surf and more."
