    I’m from Finland, too. I don’t know what to say. I been watching their videos for some time now. They are country boys I understand. They are performing in heir farm work clothes. But without superstar image, they are performing in US, maybe other countries, too. They are very good with their instruments. They are good example, how to use what you have in your hands to get ahead of life. This encourage those, who are other ordinary folks, not to look what you have not, but to use and enjoy what you have.
    These guys are great. They are what they are. Let us all be what we are made for and entourage each others in these hard times.

    I absolutely love this band! So good! I sent The Trooper to my dad, who usually doesn’t listen to more than what I send him. But about a day or 2 later he texted me and said” dude I love Steve N Seagulls!” I thought he was just bullshiting me because he doesn’t usually like this type of music but then he said “ I love how the big guy always comes in last or is late” that’s when I knew he truly listened to a good amount of their songs. Now every time I play them he says “ thank you for introducing me to them!”

    These are very multi talented Scandinavian boys. The mountain plays several instruments, everyone that sings has an awesome voice. I have all their cds after hearing just this and "ghost town" I had to get them. 10 years ago I wouldn't give these guys a second glance because I didn't have a wide eclectic taste in music then as I have now. Because of these guys I listen to a lot of bluegrass and country too. Keep up the awesome work fellas! Wish for a meet and greet **fingers crossed** that would be so awesome.
