SUMMARY:Seasick Steve
LOCATION:AB Grote zaal (Anspachlaan 110\, 1000 Brussel)
DESCRIPTION:Seasick Steve - I Started Out With Nothin' and I Still\nGot Most of It Left Listen/buy here!    ‘I Started Out\nWith Nothing And I Still Got Most Of It Left’\, that's\nthe title of the new album from the impressive figure called\nSeasick Steve. He was recently well praised in De Morgen\n(**** ‘Seasick Steve heeft naast elf uitstekende songs\ndatgene waarmee hij het verschil maakt op het gros van zijn\ncollega's: authenticiteit’) and HUMO (***½ ‘Seasick\nSteve maakt nog steeds ruwe\, primitieve blues\, en het\nresultaat is nu eens ontroerend dan weer geestig’) and was\nagain the CD of the week in De Standaard too. He received\nassistance in the studio from musicians of mixed plumage:\nNick Cave and a number of Grinderman cohorts and even the\nlikes of KT Tunstall too. Seasick Steve is the real thing.\nUntil recently this scruffy drifter lived on the streets\,\nwhere\, since he was fourteen\, he got acquainted with real\nlife. This hobo (the American term for the homeless who\ntravel around by freight trains) got to know the blues in\nthe slums. Seasick Steve learned his primitive version of it\nin the band of Lightnin’ Hopkins. Since appearing in the\nNew Year's edition of Jools Holland\, Seasick Steve has\nbeen a welcome guest at festivals and we've already been\nable to welcome him in sold-out ABBox (21.01.08). Seasick\nSteve fans have the complete Fat Possum catalogue in their\nrecord cabinet (The Black Keys\, R.L. Burnside\, Bob LogIII)\nbut are equally nuts about everything from The White\nStripes.    Support is Brit Gemma Ray. The press about her\nnew album 'The Leader':    'With noir-ish hints\nof Lee Hazlewood’s unearthly country-rock\, Ray sits\nmidway between Nina Simone and Isobel Campbell\, and is the\nbetter for it' (MOJO). 'Imagine Norah Jones on Amy\nWinehouse’s drugs' (Q). 'Few (girl singers) are as\nraw and honest\, she weaves an entrancing tapestry of Soul\nand Blues\, full of dark themes and late-night confessions\nall presented in a sultry seductive voice'. (The Sun).\n'(The Leader’s) classic pop genes are host to a\nbewildering range of foreign bodies\, rising from minor key\nsqualls to full girl-group majesty. You could do worse than\nimagine PJ Harvey in thrall to the Shangri-Las\, but Ray has\na clutch purse full of sundry to other party tricks\, she\nhas no problem producing straight\, sparkling pop' (The\nWord).         .
