The Lucky Dip Escapade is the moniker of Oliver Smith. He’s a UK ex-pat now residing in Sweden where he along with his trusty acoustic guitar, makes musical gems like ‘Camp Fire Song’.
I picked up on this little beauty via ‘The Devil Has The Best Tuna‘ (an excellent music blog well worth checking out). It was described as “the best Billy Bragg song that Billy didn’t write” – quite some claim but as much as might try I can’t fault nor top that, a perfect description for a great song.
You can stream or grab ‘Campfire Song’ for keeps below. There is an EP in the pipeline for 2011.
