8 British Artists You Really Should Listen To

4. Chris T-T

christtFavourite track: Bankrupt Chris T-T is a man who has been active on the British folk music scene for quite some time now. Massively influential and greatly respected by his peers, the fact that Chris T-T hasn't had a huge amount of commercial success is a bit of a travesty. While he may be known best in the UK for his political views, do not be fooled into thinking that Chris T-T is a one trick pony. His songs can be brilliantly emotional and fantastically surprising (The M1 Song is an A Cappella masterpiece) and he has recently done a show at Edinburgh Fringe Festival catered towards families by putting music to the poems of A.A. Milne. I believe the song 'Market Square' was the original inspiration for this. Political, poetic perfection - Chris T-T deserves your love.

In my free time, I can usually be found in my darkened living room, playing video games or watching movies. I tend to work a lot of night shifts so my out-of-whack body clock is built for such hobbies. Feel free to drop me a tweet at @callummcewan.
