JD MEATYARD
Glasgow-born singer-songwriter John Donaldson—known as JD Meatyard—emerged from the anarchic post‑punk fringes of Levellers 5 and Calvin Party, winning the admiration of the late John Peel with a string of BBC Peel sessions and Festive 50 hits.
JD Meatyard’s specific brand of anti‑folk gifts listeners with “love songs, loss songs and protest songs”. Following a series of critically acclaimed albums, JD prepares to release his eighth studio album this Autumn.
A regular on BBC 6 Music’s Gideon Coe show, his work has also inspired fierce praise from critics:
“JD Meatyard offers proof that thrilling, visceral, directly political music is still available for those wishing to scratch beneath the surface.”
— Andrew Neil, Louder Than War
