Details

Like Jack Johnson, independent Australian musician Xavier Rudd combines a love of surfing with a love of roots music. Like Ben Harper, he plays Weissenborn lap steel guitars. Utterly unlike both of those musicians, however, he has a unique setup.
Xavier Rudd is a one-man band who plays surrounded by instruments in a complicated array — typically, he has three didgeridoos placed in front of him on a stand, a guitar on his lap, a stompbox by his habitually bare feet, and an assortment of drums, banjos, harmonicas, bells, and bass guitar near at hand, or near at foot as the case may be.
He takes this setup with him on frequent tours (as well as his surfboards), relying on word of mouth rather than record labels to speak for him.
Xavier Rudd live @ Koko, London: 08 August 2012
