Vocal Mugging

I’ve always had a hard time getting into Billy Bragg. It’s because of his very heavy accented singing. It almost sounds like he’s mugging to the audience (even in the booth) with every line.

I don’t seem to mind other artists who do this—Andy Partridge has a bit of this wink-to-the-audience tone to his voice—but Mr. Bragg is too much for me.

Anyone with me?
