Seasick Steve Makes A Video In Byron Bay

Seasick Steve has downed his guitar in the sand at Byron Bay for his new video ‘Summertime Boy’.

‘Summertime Boy’ is the first taste of Seasick Steve’s ‘Sonic Soul Surfer’, due in March.

The 74-year old US blues man left home at age 13 and until 1973 lived the life of a hobo, hopping abroad trains and moving from state to state across America. He once explained that time saying, “Hobos are people who move around looking for work, tramps are people who move around but don’t look for work, and bums are people who don’t move and don’t work. I’ve been all three.”

The life of Steve Wold (aka Seasick Steve) took him once to Paris, he met and befriended Joni Mitchell and by 2006 ended up performing on Jools Hollands TV show.

In 2007, now in his mid 60s, he won the Best Breakthrough Act at the MOJO Awards in the UK and played Glastonbury.

Seasick Steve filmed the ‘Summertime Boy’ video at Byron Bay during his Australian tour of 2014.
