One of the best-dressed musicians on the planet, Nick Cave has become the unlikely recipient of an official skateboard.
Cave has teamed up with Australian skate company Fast Times, with a deck that features lyrics from the Bad Seeds' Abattoir Blues song 'Nature Boy', as well as images from Chuck Sperry. Check out the video below - sadly the skater in question isn't wearing a bespoke Chris Kerr pinstripe suit.

For those who aren't comfortable on four wheels, Nick Cave is set to reissue more of his back catalogue in 2015 on heavyweight 180g vinyl for the first time.
After the initial release of Tender Prey in December, The Good Son, Henry's Dream, Let Love In, Murder Ballads, The Boatman's Call and No More Shall We Part will all be reissued in February. They have been remastered in a process which was overseen by former Bad Seeds member Mick Harvey, with the artwork remaining intact.
Cave is set to embark on a short UK tour in April. Full tour dates are below. Buy tickets safely and securely with Seatwave.
