Jack Stafford is a travelling protest singer. A sonic cartoonist. A modern-day minstrel, touring the world by bicycle, and singing songs with a message about the times were living in. He is a renunciate, having given away his possessions and has been nomadic, full-time since August 2009 across Europe, North America and Oceania. He averages 100-150 shows a year, playing couch concerts through the couchsurfing.com network, ecovillages, barns, farms and other alternative venues.
Stafford’s musical style is ‘sardonic’, distinctly English, and similar in spirit to artists like Ray Davies and Elvis Costello. He has been called a ‘European Bob Dylan’ with lyrical and satirical songs about hating your job, unemployment, hating Woody Allen, IKEA and wind farms. He has supported Supergrass, The Veils, The Rakes, I am Kloot and many more.
