A man with blues in his blood, Seasick Steve returns to our shores in April after shaking up last year’s Bluesfest. He’s once again a guest of the West and East Coast Blues and Roots Festivals, having enjoyed somewhat a resurgence late in his career.

The hard-bitten troubadour’s new album, I Started Out with Nothin and I Still Got Most of It Left, is out this week, graced by guest appearances from Nick Cave and KT Tunstall. Fans in Sydney and Melbourne will have a chance to be regaled by Seasick Steve and his – œthree-string trance guitar’ at two special sideshows.

Soak up the – œhobo blues’ at the following venues in April. Tickets on sale Thursday 12 February.
