Last night I was lucky enough to get a press pass to photograph the American Blues artist called Seasick Steve. Those of you that watch BBC’s Top Gear might remember this colourful character with his diddley bow which is a hand made one string instrument made by taking a plank of wood and nailing a string to it.
I have to say it works really well and the sound was amazing. He was supported by a fantastic group called The Moulettes and during his set he had John Paul Jones on bass who is from the group Led Zeppelin.
Having press access gave me fantastic proximity to the stage and I’m hoping that this is the start of a new phase in my photography.
Keep checking back as I might have another gig coming up.
