Conil
WHO
London singer-songwriter Conil has been called “the anti-James Blunt” for his dark, edgy, late-night music inspired by his Strange Part Of The Country. With “one of this country’s finest voices” his raw, animalistic growl sounds like he gargles with bourbon before smoking his breakfast then chews on gravel to get him through til night fall. But it’s not just with his music that he makes a statement. He travels to cities around the world putting up signs declaring that this is a Strange Part Of The Country. This unique artist is not afraid to get out on the streets to scream his story.
