Nick Cave's Gear
"Cave sings into a hard-wired Shure Beta 58A. His monitors of choice are Nexo PS15 wedges, and Blanch says he gives him a mix of his own lead vocal, drums and 'instruments that carry the melody that he needs to pitch off of'."
In this picture it's easy to recognize the blue ring of the Beta58a. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/db/Nick_Cave_3.jpg
