Seasick Steve

[Talk Wrench]

Have you ever seen this guy before? if so where?

I have only ever seen him playing on Jools Holland's Hogmanay.

He really does trance out when playing his instruments and I would love to see him play live.

The guy is absolutely incredible! Is it really possible for one man to make so much noise?

Yes, saw him on Jools Holland's new year program, liked the sound of and and bought a couple of his albums from Amazon. Great music that has become firmly entrenched in my favourites list, great for playing loud when you are chilling with a few beers.

Saw Seasick Steve at a Festival recently, can't remember which one (to much cider probably). He's ace.

He's doing the festivals this year, if you can find £130, can I recommend Latitude. He's on just before Elbow & Sigur Ros.

Yep he good. I'm into blues a bit. He remindes me of John Lee Hooker.

Might be teaching you to suck eggs here but, if you like this guy check out the Black Keys. They do a similar stripped back blues thing which I also think is excellent.

Just been watching him on TV he's been nominated for a BRIT Award!

He didn't even know what one was!!DT_Xtremez_31:

Oh yes indeedy. Been a fan for a while now.

Seen him in concert in Glasgow recently, he was great!

His support band was awsome too Amy Lavere "Killing Him" & "That Beat"
