Here I am with Steve Wickham Aug 7th 2012 .
Steve Wickham was described by Mike Scott as 
‘the world's greatest rock fiddle player’ 
and by NME as a ‘fiddling legend’. Steve has 
recorded with Elvis Costello, the Hothouse Flowers, 
Sinéad O'Connor and U2. 
He's a long-standing member of The Waterboys
