21st Century blues man, who reaches back to the old traditions but also has a punk sensibility, and a gravelly, soulful voice. Superb live, and famous for his 3 string Trance Wonder guitar (though he does play 6-string more often, and a one-string diddley bow) He has played with everyone from Lightnin’ Hopkins and John Lee Hooker to Modest Mouse and the Fat Possum dudes. He was the star of the New Year’s Eve 2007 Jools Holland Hootenanny on BBC TV, and has been taking festivals by storm this summer.

Was one of the highlights at the Reading Festival 2007 playing to a packed Carling tent. Seasick also played at many other festivals that year such as The Big Chill, Bestival and playing a storming well received one off set at the Cambridge Folk Fest after being personally recommended by Mark Radcliffe. He soon became a favourite amongst festival go-ers, and is expected to perform at many again in 2008

Played at Roskilde Festival, Denmark, 4th of July, 2008 (Press was and he ecstatic and said he gave the best performance of all artists at Roskilde this year), as well as playing Latitude, T in the park, Oxegen, Leeds/Reading and Fuji Rock festivals.

Played at The Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury, 2008, before 65,000 people

Currently (October 2008) touring the UK, starting the tour at the Royal Albert hall, continuing to Southampton Guild Hall, Bristol Carling Academy, Brighton Dome and Nottingham Rock City, respectively, all of which were sold out gigs.
