Seasick Steve!

Last night I saw Seasick Steve on television and I have been listening to his music ever since :) Not only is that the kind of music I really like, the guy is as authentic as they come, seriously. And I’m sure that it’s partially because of his great music, but also because of that authenticity that he’s going to become even bigger than he already is right now (yes it’s the first time I hear from him, but that hasn’t been the same for everybody).

Check out this clip below from his appearance at Jools Holland more than a year ago and then this little documentary (part 1/ part 2) to see what I’m talking about. Enjoy Steve with the Three String Trance Wonder and the Mississippi Drum Machine:

First thing I’m doing this weekend is buying his stuff, all of it! Authentic stuff, I tell ya.

    Hey Kris

    Totally agree with you about Seasick Steve.

    I remember when me and the wife first saw him on Jools’ New Year Hootenanny [HOOTENANNY!] we were both completely blown away.

    I couldn’t believe it when I found out he won the Best Breakthrough Act at the MOJOs – unreal.

    Just goes to show you, you don’t have to be on a reality show or look pretty to make it big in the music biz … talent and maybe being a little “different” is all you need.

    Cheers y’all!
