Billy
Bragg was described by The Times newspaper
in England as a ‘national treasure’.
In the two and a half decades of his career
Bragg has certainly made an indelible mark
on the conscience of British music, becoming
perhaps the most stalwart guardian of the
radical dissenting tradition that stretches
back over centuries of the country’s
political, cultural and social history. He
blends elements of folk music, punk rock and
protest songs. His lyrics mostly deal with
political or romantic themes. Never has he
seemed more poignant than today and his first
album in seven years back it all up…

Gathering fans in the indie-rock, folk and
alt-country music scenes, The Watson Twins
– whose visual presence equals their
vocal presence – can't be easily categorized.
Their music is an evocative approach to warm,
familiar sounds, which intrigue and enchant.
