Available in:
Nick Burbridge is a British novelist, poet, dramatist, journalist, short story and song writer. He suffers from chronic depression, and his writing often concerns itself with the dispossessed, those at the margins of society. In fRoots, Jerry Gilbert described him as "a second-generation Irishman with a high intellect and an angry disposition."
Burbridge was the founder, in 1986, of the folk-rock band McDermott's Two Hours who released the album, The Enemy Within in 1989. At their peak, the band performed regularly at festivals like Glastonbury, Reading and Womad. At that time he signed a publishing deal with the producer Joe Boyd. In 1993 folk-rock band The Levellers, who cite Burbridge's band as a major formative influence, covered one track, Dirty Davey, on their own eponymous recording, which briefly topped the UK album charts.
