Darren Hayman - listening back to old songs and painting on beermats

Darren Hayman is a songwriter who first came to public attention as the frontman of Hefner back at the end of the 90’s. I tried to count up his releases, but they are numerous in number and genre so I’ll just say he’s prolific! On 12th June he re-released the 2012 album ‘The Violence', a folk album about the 17th-century English Civil Wars and the East Anglian Witch Trials and after a few false starts I’ve managed to pin Darren down for a chat about it and his million other projects!
