Dave Biller
Friday, 4 July, 2025

On Episode 13 of Steel, we catch up with guitarist and steel player Dave Biller. Based in Austin since the ’90s, Dave’s played with everyone from Johnny Bush and Ray Price to Jimmie Vaughan and Charley Crockett. There aren’t many musicians who can play a classic country E9 gig in the afternoon, hit a jazz club on six-string that night, and then compose a piece for a chamber orchestra the next day...but Dave can. We talk about his winding musical path through rock, metal, jazz, and country; his various musical obsessions including John Coltrane, Jimmy Day, and Django Reinhardt; and the hotel room conversation that led him to spend a decade immersing himself fully in pedal steel.
