Grant Sharkey is an incredible human being. He must have woke up one morning and decided that if he couldn’t change the world for the better, then he would at least die trying. The sad fact is that only a despot dictator with an arsenal of nuclear weapons has the power to change the world for the better.

Grant Sharkey has a song about the exponentially increasing world population… It’s basically about seven billion people who can’t stop fucking each other… The problem with seven billion people fucking each other is that some of the products end up being complete fuckers and in Rhyl on a Tuesday night… What a great source for more material…More
Grant Sharkey is a one-man protest against EVERYTHING that is wrong with the world today. He made a quest to spread his feelings by way of song and verse and double bass and a thick dollop of satirical humour… And his car. He travels around the country from his native Southampton touring his latest album Radical You! (Vol. 1)… Only a fool would not go out and watch his show.
Listen again (click below) to Grant’s excellent session on my show – full two hour show is at your fingertips…
