Seasick Steve

First came across this guy on Jools Holland's New Years eve show at the end of 2006, he has certainly led an interesting life, learnt to play guitar at the age of 8 getting lessons from an old dude from Mississippi, left home at 13 and was a hobo for a time. Since that appearance on the idiot box he has achieved great success over here and is down to play the Royal Albert Hall in October.

He plays a a beat up guitar with only three strings and comes across like a real deal Delta bluesman, elder bro' went to see him live twice last year and raved about him both times.

So here are two clips from Jools New Years eve shows, first one is Dog House Boogie (2006) and Cut My Wings (2007).
