Renowned Pedal Steel player Bruce Kaphan's first solo release, Slider, comprises a graceful collection of Ambient instrumentals that provide a perfect showcase for the unique and sensitively dexterous abilities of this in-demand former member/producer of American Music Club.

 

Bruce's enviable CV also includes work for REM, Red House Painters, David Byrne, Jewel and No-Man.

 

"Kaphan makes Zen music for dustbowl airports. bewitching instrumentals, sweet dreams of light and flight in which Kaphan's licks ring like prayer bells across an open Texas plain"  - Rolling Stone 

 

"this record is amazing"  - Peter Buck (R.E.M.)

 

"Kaphan's original compositions range from Harold Budd-like soundscapes to luxurious cosmic cowboy themes, to a couple of sonically trippy tracks reminiscent of Brian Eno's better works"  - Music Connection
