Billy Bragg

By That's How I Remember It

5:00 AM EDT on September 25, 2024

Billy Bragg is a hero of mine and also my guest on this episode of That’s How I Remember It. He’s a fantastic songwriter, incredible performer, outspoken activist and so much more. We talked about him teaching songwriting to hospice patients, songwriting allowing us to say things we can’t always say, Johnny Marr playing on “Greetings from the New Brunette”, his portable PA system The Portastack, his first US shows, and how he has great faith in the American people. A thrill for me to have Billy here, it was a great talk. Listen and subscribe. This episode is brought to you by DistroKid.
