PLASTIC FOX BY MIK ARTISTIK'S EGO TRIP
The Poet Laureate of Leeds Mik Artistik is back with a new track, backed by regular Ego Trippers Jonny Flockton and Benson Walker. This time, it's an homage to piece of garden ornamentation.
Pleasingly, this has been getting air time on major national radio, which has to be a first for the avant-garde comedian, poet, artist and musician. The fact that it's nonsense is irrelevant as Mik leaves nothing back in his lament over the poor fake dog with a snail on it's head.
The man is nothing short of a national treasure.
Get Plastic Fox from bandcamp. Follow the man himself @mikartistik or just hang around pubs in Leeds until he comes and offers to draw your portrait on a paper bag.
