Liam Bailey\u2019s knocked about with collaborators like Chase & Status and Amy Winehouse, but the singer-songwriter\u2019s come into his own with his soulful blend of blues and dub. Wonderland catches up with the man himself ahead of his headline gig at Cargo. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What are you working on at the moment?<\/strong><\/p>\n

This year I've been really fortunate gig-wise as all of my shows have sold out. My sound has truly started to take a solid form that\u2019s unique to me as an individual and although the lows bite lightly at my ankles, I'm finding a lot of positive things are coming my way. I've been touring, writing with Chase & Status again, and doing a lot of collaborations with people from different scenes & genres which I plan to keep doing. I'm fortunate. <\/p>\n

Where do you get your inspiration from?<\/strong><\/p>\n

From life, really\u2026. Does that sound clich\u00e9? From lots of things: memories or ambitions, wants, losses, gains. The fakery of our fickle systems. The beauty in truth. <\/p>\n

Are your songs written about genuine past events\/ relationships? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Of course, yes. I'd be a fake if not. I really find it difficult to sing things I haven't been through.<\/p>\n

How was it growing up in Nottingham?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sound. I never got shot, anyway! My mum and dad are hard workers so I was fed and clothed well. I got bullied a few times and most likely bullied a few kids on the way. I shouted at the teacher but never swore at my mum. I got a thorn stuck in my knuckle once picking blackberries and I never found dock leaves to be a particularly soothing remedy for nettle stings. I had a big LP collection. Pretty bog standard stuff really.<\/p>\n

Who would you most like to collaborate with?<\/strong><\/p>\n

God. Or my 12-year-old self. <\/p>\n

Do you think that you<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
