British singer-songwriter, Billy Bragg, was born on December 20, 1957 in Barking, Essex. Known as the 'Bard of Barking', he has had a long and successful career, particularly recognized in the UK for his unique blend of music and left-wing politics.

Billy Bragg's passion for music began at an early age and he quickly made a name for himself with his heartfelt lyrics and distinctive folk-punk sound. His songs often tackle social issues such as inequality, war, and working-class struggles, making him a voice for the marginalized.

With his thought-provoking lyrics and powerful performances, Billy Bragg has become an influential figure in both the music industry and political activism. He continues to captivate audiences around the world with his raw talent and unwavering commitment to using music as a platform for change.

Billy Bragg releases a new album Best of Billy Bragg at the BBC 1983-2019. The 38-track collection is ‘fully remastered’ and features 38 tracks compiled from the BBC archive spanning 1983 – 2019. It includes selected highlights from sessions for John Peel, David Jensen, Janice Long, Phill Jupitus, Bob Harris, Tom Robinson and more. Many are previously unreleased.

The collection draws from all corners of Billy’s catalogue and features, among many gems, his signature song A New England (later covered to huge acclaim by Kirsty MacColl), Levi Stubbs’ Tears, and his workers’ anthem There Is Power In A Union, with a couple of atypical covers thrown in, namely John Cale’s Fear Is A Man’s Best Friend and A13, his personal psycho-geography take on Route 66.
