seasick steve's hubcap

It's been 2 years since the last Seasick Steve album so it's very good news his next recording is due at the end of April.
Hubcap Music features his uniquely assembled slide guitar made from a hubcap (of course) but with the added design appendages of a garden hoe, engine bolts and a barbecue spatula with accompanying beer cans and Christmas decorations.
Steve eloquently describes it as.. "not very stable".
His session partners on the album are Jack White, ex-Black Crowes guitarist Luther Dickinson and Zeppelin's John Paul Jones (who also played on some of his last tour dates) along with his regular touring buddy Swedish drummer Dan Magnusson.
"We're going to play this record to death... I'm going to do this until the wheels fall off". The hubcap slide might find it a tough summer.
Order Hubcap Music from > Fiction Records
Here's a taster from the scrap yard.
