As Badly Drawn Boy, Damon Gough puts a fresh spin on the traditions of classic singer-songwriters. When he emerged in the late '90s, his intricate, lilting melodies, quirky but heartfelt lyrics, and offbeat production touches fit in with the experimental pop fringe of artists like Scott 4 and the Beta Band, but Gough soon defined himself as a remarkable talent with 2000s The Hour of Bewilderbeast, his Mercury Prize-winning debut album. Since then he has cemented his national treasure status with albums including the soundtrack to About A Boy, which included hits Something To Talk About and Silent Sigh.
He celebrates 25 years of releasing music this year and we are thrilled to welcome him to our Sunday lineup on the Lakeside Stage at Camper Calling this year!

Featuring the Mercury Prize-nominated solo artist and producer Ed Harcourt, Richard Jones of The Feeling, and Cass Browne (Gorillaz / Delakota / Senseless Things), Loup GarouX - “a nightmarish rush of visceral Birthday Party-style goth punk and the frenetic intensity of ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead” - made a fast impression with a hurricane of storming, snarling singles and kept a fierce momentum ever since.
Their debut album, Strangerlands, arriving in 2022 saw them described as “a raging, head-spinning sound of a Minotaur blasting its way out of a maze. It’s a beast with wings, roaring of Faustian pacts, new deities and eternal rock.” and “A magical beast of a band, dark & heavy embellished with gothic and horror influences - an explosive alchemy”.
Loup GarouX possess an impossible-to-pigeonhole mesh of influences which makes their epic romanticism and panache very much their own. Dig deeper and you’ll hear echoes of everything from The Stooges to Sonic Youth to Scott Walker and Springsteen, set to lyrics which explore ideas ranging from demonic Victorian-era spirits to obsessive fever dreams.
