ESPECIAL SEASICK STEVE Al igual que T-Model Ford, Seasick Steve (también conocido como Steve Wold nacido en 1941) comenzó a grabar su propia música mucho más tarde que otros músicos. Un cantante de cuentos tradicionales de country-blues que pasó su infancia en California, pero se fue de casa a los 14 años. Como un vagabundo, viajó durante varios años, saltando de unos trenes y trabajillos a otros.

The final day of Leeds Festival 2011 brought with it dryness and a relative calm that I hadn't seen all weekend, no frantic rushing to tents. Just good music. Well, for most of the day anyway… Speaking of music that just is not good in the slightest, my first port of call for the day was the Main Stage to watch Pigeon Detectives. Beginning with their set with arguably their most popular track 'I Found Out' was their first mistake, as they had my attention for that [...]
Another surprise guest during this weekend Reading and Leeds was the living Led Zeppelin legend that is John Paul Jones . He joined his previous collaborator and all round cool guy Seasick Steve for a performance of "It's A Long Way" and the BBC are feeling generous and have hosted it so we know it's good and won't be taken down by the internet police. Enjoy the footage at the top.
Listen to Seasick Steve and Jack White cover two old Mississippi Fred McDowell tunes.

Seasick Steve releases his new single, the aptly titled, It's A Long Long Way on 15th August, proving yet again why his bluesy vocals have gained him so much support in recent years. His songwriting is so obviously laced with experience that you feel compelled to relate to it and this latest song is no different. He's one of the few artists you feel can really offer the advice of 'Don't give up on your dreams' because you can feel the sincerity coursing through every single lyric he sings, made that much stronger for those who recognise [...]

Optimus Alive! went down in Passeio Marítimo de Alges in Portugal over the weekend. Headliners included Coldplay and Jane's Addiction. The riverside fest had a nice mix of nostalgia (Stooges, Blondie) and fresh electronic sounds (James Blake, Duck Sauce) too, but while Primal Scream got to play Screamadelica front to back, the Pretty Reckless didn't hit the stage at all due to " structural problems ." Good looking out, Portgual. Check out pics of all the aforementioned bands - plus Fleet Foxes, TV On The Radio, Grinderman, Patrick Wolf, Grouplove, Anna Calvi, Seastick Steve, Kele, Twilight Singers, and [...]

Seasick Steve - "Go To Hell" (Billie the Vision & the Dancers Cover) After seven years spent releasing free LPs via their own Love Will Pay The Bills label, Swedish pop outfit Billie the Vision & the Dancers are set to drop a best-of compilation composed of their most beloved tracks. Included in the 2-disc collection are cover versions by the Pipettes, Little Marbles, and others. One standout, which has been on repeat around here for the past week, is Jack White pal Seasick Steve's stunning recording of 2005 [...]
Teaming up with Jack White has been a great thing for Seasick Steve, because otherwise, how else would he have gotten headlining set at iTunes Festival? Maybe on his own, I guess, but when you can perform one song with help from Alison Mosshart, White, and John Paul Jones of Led Fucking Zeppelin on bass, you're worth any big slot in any festival. Especially when it's a ripping take of "Write Me a Few Lines" that is full of smiles from the performers and massive guitar riffs. Just the best, here.

El Itunes Festival empezó el 1 de julio, y ya nos dio un video que hace que los 31 días de música valgan la pena: Jack White , Alison Mosshart , el ex bajista de Led Zeppelin John Paul Jones y Seasick Steve , interpretando Write Me A Few Of Your Lines , una canción de Steve. El festival, del 1 al [...]
Seasick Steve just had the best weekend ever. Once a busker on the Paris Metro, the Third Man Record-signed , three-string guitar-playing blues musician found himself joined on stage by Jack White, Alison Mosshart, and Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones in London on Saturday night. He then followed that up with a guest appearance at Foo Fighters' show in Buckinghamshire, England last night, where he, Jones, and Dave Grohl played the track "Back in the Doghouse", from Steve's recently released LP You Can't Teach an Old Dog New Tricks .
