I went to the National Theatre last night to see Mother Courage. It is an astonishing and brilliant piece of drama that was dramatically (see what I did there...) enhanced by this guy singing some very weird and beautiful songs during the play.

Apparently he's a proper pop musician and everything. I like this song:

but I dont like it as much as the music he sang last night. Reminded me why I fell in love with (pop) music.

You can download a sampler album on his website www.dukespecial.com and I'd recommend you give him a try (the first song on it is from the play)/

I'd also recommend the play if you are in The Smoke and dramatically inclined.
