Billy Bragg stands apart in the landscape of UK folk. After being discovered by John Peel in the infamous mushroom biryani incident, Bragg has seamlessly joined the gaps between folk and punk, using his music as a platform to entertain, educate and awaken.

Last year saw the release of Mermaid Avenue: The Complete Sessions - a project with Wilco to put music to lyrics written by Woody Guthrie. As 2013 starts, 30 years after the release of debut album 'Life’s A Riot', Billy has announced a new studio album called 'Tooth and Nail', which is sure to wow the Glasgow faithful.
