About this listen
I’d like to take you on a journey through time and place. We’ll begin in an early 1970s seaside corner of Great Britain, joining a mixed-race kid with a dad-shaped gap on a search for identity. You’ll step into the ragged beauty, light, and shade of a painter’s life, the paradoxical world of martial arts, love, loss, and hedonism of the '90s, and a star-crossed musical voyage in a 21st-century Blake’s London. On we’ll go, to a final reckoning, then home for tea. Is that a yes? Good… hold tight!
The tales are streaked with humor, heartbreak, anger, pain, and joy. All seen through the prism of social upheaval and a changing soundtrack over four decades, amidst the creative luminaries of Paul Weller, the Style Council, and Primal Scream. The events and perspectives of Dadless are also an apt and timely reference point for progress on the current issues of race, identity, mental health—and most importantly, redemption—facing Great Britain and its youth today.
