Seasick Steve releases his brand new album in one format only - vinyl! ‘Only On Vinyl’ will be released in standard black vinyl and Limited Edition coloured blue vinyl. The album cover tells you exactly what to expect. No digital. (So no streaming on Spotify or iTunes or phones). No CDs. No nothing. Only good old fashioned vinyl. You won’t find it anywhere else. SEASICK STEVE has announced a run of intimate indie record store concerts to celebrate the release of his brand new ‘Only On Vinyl’ album - which is released only on vinyl on 23rd September 2022 The dates, which will be an opportunity to see Steve and Crazy Dan close up in some fantastic grass roots venues, are partnered with record stores across the UK. Ticket bundles are on sale at 10am THURSDAY 16th June via www.seasicksteve.com ‘Only on Vinyl’ is dedicated to lovers of vinyl everywhere and was recorded ‘old skool’ by Steve and long time drummer Dan Magnusson.
The recording sessions were in Steve’s barn, recording onto a 16 track 2“ tape machine (3M M79). The album was mixed to 1/2” tape by award-winning recording engineer/mixer Vance Powell. Completing the analog process, this is a true analog tape to vinyl transfer, with the lacquers being cut on a Neumann VMS82 lathe called ‘Destiny’, by Lewis Hopkin at Star Delta Mastering. No computers were used (or harmed) in the making of this record. ‘Only on Vinyl’ finds Seasick Steve on top form pulling riffs, grooves and melodies out of thin air to deliver new classic Seasick Steve tracks such as ‘Put That In Your Pipe’. ‘How Do You Do’ and ‘Train Wreck’. Fans are sure to love the sequel to a firm fan favourite in the brand new ‘Down On The Farm 2’, along with a down and dirty new recording of Hobo Low (which was originally released on ‘Dog House Music’ in 2006). ‘Crash & Burn’ is sure to become a huge live favourite with fans old and new, as Steve delivers one of his greatest sing along choruses on record. Steve commented: “i just wanted it to be like it used to …wanna buy a record ? go to the record store! its an amazin thing to do just to go i… look around… feel the vibe… then you pick out a record… yeah! and then you got something REAL in your hands instead of in some cloud its really yours…for real… i swear
