Post your questions for Badly Drawn Boy Emerging, bobble-hatted, at the end of the 90s when Britpop had waned and British music wasn’t really sure where to turn, Damon Gough was a reminder to just be yourself. As Badly Drawn Boy, he made his own skewed version of guitar-pop, happily distracted by folk, soul, psychedelia and more – his debut album The Hour of Bewilderbeast won the Mercury prize, and he went on to record a popular soundtrack for the Hugh Grant movie About a Boy. He steadily released six more studio albums but has been quiet since 2012’s soundtrack to Robert De Niro and Julianne Moore’s film flop, Being Flynn. But this month sees him return, releasing new album Banana Skin Shoes: an ambitious, widescreen and frequently quite funky pop record. To mark its arrival, Gough is joining us to answer your questions about it and anything in his career in a live webchat 1-2pm BST on Wednesday 20 May – post them in the comments below.
