As a result of the Covid-19 crisis that has impacted so many, the release date of Seasick Steve’s new album ‘Love & Peace’ moves back to July 24th. Many of the shows in his current Spring tour have been rearranged, with additional new dates set to be announced later in the summer. Please see www.seasicksteve.com/gigs for the latest updates.

In the meantime, Seasick Steve will digitally deliver his inimitable brand of analogue boogie live once a week. Each Sunday at 8pm (UK Time) Seasick Steve will live-stream a performance of a different track via his Facebook page. Steve commented, “I don’t think any of us could have imagined how it would be in the world right now. I hope y’all safe and taking care of yourselves. Strange times.”

Recently previewed by the lead single and title track, the ‘Love & Peace’ album finds Steve mixing up all of his much-loved ingredients to deliver a fresh new record that offers the perfect antidote for the troubled times in which we live. Full of hope for the future, it’s a great mix of boogie, blues, rock, Americana and folk – all delivered in Seasick Steve’s unique style. It’s a sizzler of an album that he can’t wait to release.

Produced and written by Seasick Steve, this album sees him breaking with tradition. While some of it was recorded in his barn, the majority was recorded in Los Angeles at Studio 606 and at East West Studio 3. The album was mixed by Vance Powell (Jack White, Chris Stapleton) and Steve at East West.

Steve’s long-term drummer Dan Magnusson (a.k.a. Crazy Dan) is of course featured on the record, along with some amazing contributions from guitarist Luther Dickinson (North Mississippi Allstars) and harmonica player Malcolm Arison (The BossHoss).

‘Love & Peace’ is now available for pre-order on CD limited edition clear vinyl, and standard black vinyl formats from his website. It will also be available to download and stream. The album will be released on Contagious Records and distributed by ADA.
