Billy Bragg is an English singer-songwriter, musician and left-wing activist, who rose to prominence during the early 1980s with his mix of folk and punk rock. His early works explored themes of class and politics, often in a light-hearted and humorous manner.

Billy Bragg's most well-known albums are Life's a Riot with Spy Vs Spy (1983), Brewing Up with Billy Bragg (1984), Talking with the Taxman About Poetry (1986), Workers Playtime (1988), Don't Try This at Home (1991), and William Bloke (1996). Standout songs include "A New England", "Levi Stubbs' Tears", "Greetings to the New Brunette", "Sexuality" and "Waiting for the Great Leap Forward".

An interesting fact about Billy Bragg is that he has a special place in his heart for the punk rock band The Clash, and was an outspoken advocate of their music. He often performed their songs in concert and even wrote a book about them titled The Progressive Patriot: A Search for Belonging.
