Kacey Musgraves

Not a lot of steel, but very tastefully done:

And just how did this make the commercial "country" chart?! The songwriting is superb, and it ain't '80s hard rock, or funk, or white boy rap. Real music, real songs trump the crap! Congratulations to Kacey - and even to her label, that was leery of putting out this song.

Anybody know who's pickin' steel?

There's a song on this record called 'It is what it is' that has a very tasty steel part. Great song, too.

Allmusic says it's either Bucky Baxter or Russ Pahl. Both played on this record.

Daniel, you posted up the wrong link, bro! I don't know what song of Kacey's you we're trying to post, but here's a link to her doing "Blowing Smoke" live

I Don't recognize the player behind the Sho~Bud in the live clip but, as we know, it's most likely not who's on the record. She's not too bad. And hey, her being out on tour with Kenny Chesney and Zac Brown can't hurt her popularity.

Brian's link is a really good tune also...
