You won't find Nick Burbridge's music charting on any Top 20 lists and, to the best of my knowledge, he's never toured extensively, by himself or with his band McDermott's 2 Hours.

These are protest songs and songs for the working class from the depths of a poet's heart, and its on constant rotation in my home.
