Seasick Steve - Can You Cook?


"Can You Cook?" is the brand new single and title tune from the upcoming album by the bluesman Seasick Steve. Set to be released 28th September 2018.

‘Can U Cook?’ has been Steve mixing up all of his much-loved ingredients to deliver a fresh new record that’s full of sunshine, as well as being a good ol’ Seasick mix of boogie, blues, rock, americana and folk-music.

Produced and written by Seasick Steve, this will be Steve’s ninth studio album and was mostly recorded in a converted ice house on the dock in Key West, Florida.

Steve’s longtime drummer Dan Magnusson (a.k.a. Crazy Dan) is of course featured on the record, along with some amazing playing contributions from guitarist Luther Dickinson (North Mississippi Allstars). Luther is now part of the touring band for the forthcoming tour dates, see the dates below.


Steven Gene Wold ,commonly known as Seasick Steve, is an American blues musician. He plays mostly personalized guitars and sings, usually about his early life doing casual work.

Today's tune "Can U Cook?" taken from the upcoming album, the video is live from a performance @ Mainstage in Arras . Can You Cook on only one string. Strange guy but a great artist.

Seasick Steve - Down On The Farm



Steven Gene Wold (born 1941), commonly known as Seasick Steve, is an American blues musician. He plays (mostly personalized) guitars, and sings, usually about his early life doing casual work. On February 28, 2013, Seasick Steve unveiled his upcoming album entitled Hubcap Music, and stated it would feature collaborations with John Paul Jones, Jack White and Luther Dickinson.




Hubcap Music is the sixth studio album by Seasick Steve. The title derives from his Morris Minor guitar made out of two hubcaps put back-to-back. He frequently uses it both live and in studio. One week before the release, a video for "Purple Shadows" premiered, consisting of Steve playing a stripped version of the song on the acoustic guitar.

Guests on the album include Dan Magnusson on drums, who also plays live with Seasick Steve, John Paul Jones on bass amongst other instruments and also Jack White on guitar on the track "The Way I Do".




Todays tune "Down On The Farm" was debuted live at the 2012 Pinkpop Festival in the Netherlands. There was also a music video released for it, with Seasick Steve dancing behind his farm with the hubcap guitar in his hand, in similar fashion to The Black Keys' song, "Lonely Boy".

Seasick Steve - You Can't Teach An Old Dog New Tricks


Steven Gene Wold, commonly known as Seasick Steve, (born 1941) is an American blues musician. He plays (mostly personalized) guitars, and sings, usually about his early life doing casual work.

He has to this date released 5 albums and the latest was released on 27 May 2011.

In February 2011, Seasick Steve signed to Play It Again Sam to release his new album with the exception of the US, where it will be released on Third Man Records. Subsequently his new album You Can't Teach An Old Dog New Tricks was released on his new labels and it was announced that ex Led Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones had played on the new album, and appeared to promote the new album and thus performing with the duo. This has caused some to believe that he will tour with Steve as a part of his backing band, joining his current drummer Dan - something Seasick Steve confirmed had (and may) happen at a few performances. Jon Paul Jones did indeed appear onstage to play with Steve at the Isle of Wight 2011 festival.







Todays tune is the titletrack from his latest and fifth album "You Can’t Teach An Old Dog New Tricks”
