  • Lach ( Steve Rogers )

    Episode 24

    Edinburgh Fringe Series: EP 6

    I spoke to Singer/Songwriter, Poet, Comedian and founding member of the anti-folk art and music movement, Lach.

    He spoke candidly about the anti-folk movement which was his response to being banned from folk clubs in New York in the 80's, his time in San Francisco "was all good" but it wasn't really and that he always has music in his head.

    He also talked about his first Fringe show, the Edinburgh Arts scene, his hopes for live performance returning in the future and a lot more.
