Just watched this for the first time, and your discussion about your eyesight means so much to me - I'm 30 and have a similar degenerative sight loss, and it's so tough to talk about with sighted people, thanks for sharing! Love your music xx
Fantano is far from my favorite person on the internet, but every once in a while I'm really happy he's around to show me stuff like this. I would have gone my whole life without ever hearing a Richard Dawson song without fantano's praise. I love both albums I've heard, Ogre is a genuine banger, and I'm always happy when I can start a day of work with a fresh and unique album to listen to. This is now an artist I'll be watching for years and years to come. On a more cynical side note, it feels super weird to watch my music taste get shaped by a professional reviewer. I don't know how to discover music that well, I'd say 1/4th of new artists I really like come from fantano directly, which just feels wrong.
Only came across Richard through Ogre being played on Radio 6 last week, now I'm totally hooked; what brilliant stuff he brings to the world.

Glorious man
How can you not love this man?
Discovered him through Peasant, now he's one of my favourite artists, one that I HAVE to see live sometime! What an incredible voice...
Parsnips!
The bloke who came up to him after the gig was right. It's shit.

i like to check out the recommendations and inspirations of my favourite artirst through interviews. great way to discover new stuff :)
Nah mate, it's completely normal. Everyone gets music recommendations from someone. Not everyone is a crate digging obsessive.
A brilliant man.
Love the fault analogy, so true, its defined his unique sound IMO, makes it much more human too. Inspires me to be me artistically.
Reminds me of Phil Elverums philosophy on art
Can't say I'm familiar, I'll check him out tho
Aka the Microphones/ Mount Eerie
Exactly! I can't believe no one's made these connections before
I like your music 👌
