The Untold Story of Chumbawamba with Dunstan Bruce

The Untold Story of Chumbawamba with Dunstan Bruce

Published 3 years, 7 months ago
Description

Dunstan Bruce is perhaps most famous for his lead vocals and listing of libations in the Chumbawamba pop hit, Tubthumping. But there is so much more to him and that band than that one song. For the hour we touch on some of the band's 30 year history, their relation as a collective, anarchist band to social justice movements around the world and how they used their fame and money to give back, Dunstan's recently finished documentary "I Get Knocked Down: The Untold Story of Chumbawamba" and his accompanying one man show "Am I Invisible Yet?", aging and the battle for relevance, staying involved in politics and more. "I Get Knocked Down" is still seeking distribution so not streamable, but keep an eye on the fakebook page for updates on that, and you can find his prior documentary on Chumbawamba published about 20 years ago on youtube, entitled "Well Done, Now Sod Off!"

You can find a rather embarrassing mixtape from us years ago on archive.org, expect a replacement playlist for it soon.
