In the case of former hobo and punk-blues singer Seasick Steve, however, it all seemed so simple. When he sang “Dog House Boogie” on his extraordinary Hootenanny debut nearly a decade ago, it was his grit and authenticity, even more than his musical skills – though the two go hand-in-hand – that the audience fell in love with. Read any fan forum and it’s clear that Steve is loved because most audiences believe he’s experienced exactly what he sings.
