Clipping, Bob Vylan & The Bug Club

from The Green Man Podcast · host Green Man Festival

“The living version of a song for me is only ever the live one” Few do twisted-break beats quite as cinematically as clipping. With a Hugo Award nomination for ‘Best Dramatic Presentation’ under their belts, the West Coast experimental hip-hop trio subvert all expectations with their pioneering hybrid of conceptual artistry, and midnight-beats. The group consists of rapper Daveed Diggs and producers William Hutson and Jonathan Snipes. They chat to London’s Bob Vylan, a duo who observe modern-day insanities with an attentive ear for societal injustice. Formed of singer/guitarist Bobby Vylan and drummer Bobbie Vylan, the pair specialise in heavyweight commentary with plenty of magnetism to boot. This is community first, followed by “pizza with a side of misery.”  Counting BBC Radio 6 Music presenter Mark Riley amongst their loyal fanbase, Caldicot, South Wales newcomers The Bug Club continue to win hearts with their playful garage-rock frenzies. They chat with Henry Widdicombe, curator of GM’s Last Laugh comedy tent.  And hear from Seren, the first of our teen roving reporters from the Somewhere field.
