Jack Badcock is a singer whose solo material reveals an astute songcraft exploring enormously wide-ranging subjects delivered with a musical sensitivity clearly influenced by American folk, funk and soul music as much as the traditional music of Britain and Ireland and all served with a healthy dose of storytelling and humour.
