  • Description

    Billy Bragg has been a fearless recording artist, tireless live performer and peerless political campaigner for over 30 years. Among the former Saturday boy's albums are his punk-charged debut Life's a Riot With Spy Vs Spy, the more love-infused Workers Playtime, pop classic Don't Try This At Home, the Queen's Golden Jubilee-timed treatise on national identity England, Half-English, and his stripped-down tenth, Tooth & Nail, his most successful since the early 90s. The intervening three decades have been marked by a number one hit single, having a street named after him, being the subject of a South Bank Show, appearing onstage at Wembley Stadium, curating Left Field at Glastonbury, sharing spotted dick with a Cabinet minister in the House of Commons cafeteria, being mentioned in Bob Dylan's memoir and meeting the Queen. At their best, Billy's songs present 'the perfect Venn diagram between the political and the personal' (the Guardian).Billy Bragg added best-selling author/musicologist to his CV with the success of his acclaimed 2017 book 'Roots, Radicals & Rockers - How Skiffle Changed The World'.Billy Bragg will release a new single 'I Will Be Your Shield' on 14th July 2021. Taken from his forthcoming 10th studio album 'The Million Things That Never Happened', 'I Will Be Your Shield' is a beautiful love song and is the beating heart of his new record.
