Seth is a down to earth hippie type kid born and raised in Vermont. WE met and shared a spliff the other evening in Milan at his concert at the Blues House. He was pretty funny telling me a story about some friend of his in jail for murder. He plays a mean guitar and can improvise and jam with the best...
His music is based mostly on the blues, from Otis Rush to John Lee Hooker to Hot Tuna and the Allman Brother's Band. From country blues to southern blues, from rhythym and blues to deep down funky blues... He teased China Cat Sunflower by the Grateful Dead, Bendo Down Low by Bob Marley, and some Phish song during his performance, but stuck mostly to origionals with a cover of a Bob Dylan tune.
I'd definetly reccomend checking him out the next time he's in your town.
