About this deal

Wold claimed to have lived rough and on the road in Tennessee, Mississippi and elsewhere, until at least the late 1960s. [19] [6] However, Wright's biography claims that Wold lived in Haight-Ashbury, San Francisco, for some time from 1965. [20] He attended the Monterey Pop Festival, regularly saw bands such as The Grateful Dead perform in the area, and became acquainted with Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix. [21] [22] Early musical activities [ edit ] Wold made his first UK television appearance on Jools Holland's annual Hootenanny BBC TV show on New Year's Eve 2006. He performed a live rendition of "Dog House Boogie" on the "Three String Trance Wonder" and the "Mississippi Drum Machine". After that show his popularity exploded in Britain, and he commented "I can't believe it, all of the sudden I'm like the cat's meow!" [8] He has toured the UK extensively since 2007 being supported by performers including Duke Garwood, Gemma Ray, Billie the Vision and the Dancers, Amy LaVere, Melody Nelson and Joe Gideon & The Shark. His tours in October 2008 and January 2009 were all sold out and included performances at the Royal Albert Hall, the Edinburgh Queen's Hall, the Grand Opera House in Belfast, the Apollo in Manchester, the City Hall in Newcastle and the London Hammersmith Apollo. [42] [43] [44] On 3 January 2010, Wold appeared on the popular BBC motoring show Top Gear as the Star In A Reasonably Priced Car. [50] A friend of Steve's had given him a guitar made with hubcaps off a Morris Minor (he owned one at the time), and he played it on air. This section possibly contains original research.

a b California Birth Index, 1905-1995. Sacramento, CA, USA: State of California Department of Health Services, Center for Health Statistics, Ancestry.com. Retrieved August 4, 2019 I Started Out with Nothin and I Still Got Most of It Left, Steve's third studio album, was released in September 2008. The album peaked to No. 9 on the UK Albums Chart. The album is his first on the record label Warner Bros. Records, but the vinyl releases are still on his old label, Bronzerat Records. After returning to the US, he trained as a paramedic, [34] before moving with his wife and their three sons from Nashville, Tennessee, to Olympia, near Seattle, in 1991. [35] The move was partly motivated by Elisabeth Wold's desire to live in an area reminiscent of her native Norway, but also reflected the area's developing indie music scene. [6] In Olympia, Wold established his own guitar store and recording studio, Moon Music. [33] He was acquainted with Kurt Cobain, and began producing records by local musicians, including Kathleen Hanna and Fitz of Depression. [33] Wold produced the 1996 debut album by Modest Mouse, This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About, [36] and recordings by the band P.E.Z. on which he played guitar. He also worked closely with a local band, the Tremens, and with them started to form a band, Dr Steel and the Forty-nines, with himself as singer and lead guitarist, but this fell through. A 2001 interview with the Tremens described Wold as a " Pacific Northwest music icon... who has put his recording stamp on some of the most influential bands to come out of Puget Sound."

In February 2010, Wold was nominated for a Brit Award in the category of International Solo Male Artist for the second consecutive year. [45] In an interview with an Australian magazine, Wold attributed much of his unlikely success to his cheap and weather-beaten guitar, "The Trance Wonder" and reveals the guitar's mojo might come from supernatural sources.

He left California in 1972 and moved to Paris, France, where he busked in the Métro. [26] He occasionally returned to California where he married Victoria Johnson in 1974; they had two sons together but later divorced. [27] Wold also spent time in the 1970s in Hawaii, and worked as a session musician and studio engineer, as well as in occasional manual jobs. He has claimed to have played with other musicians including Son House, John Lee Hooker, Albert King, and Joni Mitchell around this time. [6] In 1976, he worked with French producer Lee Hallyday and fronted the disco group Crystal Grass. [4] Leach appeared on two Crystal Grass albums released by Philips Records in France, Dance Up a Storm and Ocean Potion, the latter credited to Steve Leach with the Crystal Grass Orchestra. The group also released several singles including "You Can Be What You Dream". [28] [4] [29] He also sang on the first album released by Mike Love's side project Celebration, a collaboration with members of the Paris-based band King Harvest. [30] When he was four years old, his parents split up and he continued to live with his mother. He claimed that as a child he was taught to play the guitar by K. C. Douglas, who worked at his grandfather's garage, and later realised that he had been taught the blues. [7] Douglas wrote the song " Mercury Blues" and had played with Tommy Johnson in the early 1940s. [17] His mother remarried, to a Korean War veteran who Wold characterized as abusive, and, at the age of about 13, Wold claimed that he left home following a violent confrontation with his stepfather. [18] In 2010, Wold made numerous festival appearances throughout the summer, including the Pyramid Stage at the Glastonbury Festival, [51] the main stage at V Festival, [52] the main stage at the Hop Farm Festival and many more. [53] Cheap, Steve's debut studio album, was released in 2004. It consists of songs by him and his Swedish/Norwegian band The Level Devils, and also two stories from his life as a hobo. The Level Devils consisted at this time of Kai Christoffersen playing the drums and Jo Husmo bass. Dan Magnusson subsequently took over drumming duties.Goods that are faulty or sent in error must be returned to Crash Records Limited, 35 The Headrow, Leeds, LS1 6PU within 7 working days of the item being received by the customer.
