Ancient Champion: Early Encounter with the Bard I can't remember the last time there was an Ancient Champion column

Ancient Champion: Early Encounter with the Bard

I can't remember the last time there was an Ancient Champion column

Embellishments and factual inaccuracies aside. Ain't that the truth?

As an old school early adopter, as an utterly self-absorbed, utterly self-styled Champ, upon being ushered into Bard’s inner circle last night, the first thing I wanted to know was, what could Bard tell me about me? And when I WhatsApped the results to the one of OL's writers, they simply said something like, "Looks like Bard is a fan." 

Bard is not at the mo’ wholly infallible, but it’s early days… Doubtless Bard’s taste will refine over time… And then, maybe become less magnanimous towards AC. For now though, here's what Bard knows, now...

"Ancient Champion is the stage name of the British Singer Songwriter and writer. 

He is known for his easy listening music which has been described as a mix of “Folk, pop and electronica.”

Ancient Champion has released several albums and EPs, and his music has been featured in a number of films and television shows.

He is a writer and his work has appeared in a number of magazines and journals.

Ancient Champion is a pseudonym and the musician’s real name is unknown.

He is based in London, England."

Embellishments and factual inaccuracies aside, ain’t that the truth?

All About and Contributors

HELP OUTSIDELEFT

Outsideleft exists on a precarious no budget budget. We are interested in hearing from deep and deeper pocket types willing to underwrite our cultural vulture activity. We're not so interested in plastering your product all over our stories, but something more subtle and dignified for all parties concerned. Contact us and let's talk. [HELP OUTSIDELEFT]

WRITE FOR OUTSIDELEFT

If Outsideleft had arms they would always be wide open and welcoming to new writers and new ideas. If you've got something to say, something a small dank corner of the world needs to know about, a poem to publish, a book review, a short story, if you love music or the arts or anything else, write something about it and send it along. Of course we don't have anything as conformist as a budget here. But we'd love to see what you can do. Write for Outsideleft, do. [SUBMISSIONS FORM HERE]
