Wiz's Gig Schedule


Wiz: Pedal Steel Guitarist Extraordinaire

I am a professional pedal steel guitarist, known as "Wiz," currently operating out of Mid-Michigan. I've been playing steel guitar professionally since 1974, with various bands across the USA and Canada. Some of my gigs are Classic and Traditional Country, others are Modern/New Country, and still others are Outlaw Country and Southern Rock. I frequently work with recording artists who do original songs, or their own version of chart songs.

Notice! I am available and looking for freelance gigs and recording sessions! Please check my gig schedule below to see if I am already booked on the days you need someone to play steel guitar. Contact me if you know of a paying gig for a pedal steel guitarist, within 60 miles of downtown Flint, Mi.

I've been asked if I only do freelance gigs. The answer is a qualified no. I am willing to officially join a working band to whom I will give preference in the event of a double booking, or which has enough work that I don't need to freelance any more. Contact me if you are prepared to offer me a steady position as your steel player.

Are you planning to go into the studio anywhere in Mid-Michigan? If so please consider hiring me to play pedal steel tracks on your sessions. I can do overdub or live cuts, plus multi-track effects.

If you know of a Country, or Country-Rock, or Southern-Rock band that is looking for a top-notch steel guitarist, please let them know about me! My contact page is here. I am willing to relocate for steady work!

I also post my gig schedule and availablity on my Facebook account as bookings are confirmed. I get many of my bookings through through Facebook and Messenger and they are the best way to reach out to me about gigs if you are on Facebook.

This is my current gig schedule. Y'all come and see me sometime!
