Legendary folk/punk figure Billy Bragg is set to tour the US in the lead-up to this years election, making a dozen or so stops along the Eastern Seaboard beginning in mid-October.
 This week, Spinner launched a new Interface podcast, featuring an in-studio performance from Billy, singing songs from his latest release Mr. Love and Justice, and well as an in-depth interview with the revered populist in which he talks about trying to overthrow Margaret Thatcher’s government, the music he’s most proud of and how Prince Charles is “a f—king jerk.” See it here.
Mr. Love and Justice, Billy’s 12th studio album and his first in six years, has been widely hailed by fans and critics alike:
· “A return to form, a step forward, and a potent reminder of why Bragg's music still matters.” --All Music Guide
· “Whether you prefer him shouting vitriol on the picket line or whispering sweet nothings in the bedroom, you'll find plenty to enjoy here.” –Billboard
· “Frequently fantastic folk-rock that keeps both the faith and your attention.” –Village Voice
