Badly Drawn Boy

Badly Drawn Boy, the stage name of Damon Gough, performed "Promises" live at the O2 Wireless Festival during a significant period in his career. At that point, Gough had already released his acclaimed debut album, "The Hour of Bewilderbeast," which won the Mercury Prize in 2000, elevating his artistic profile substantially. The performance at O2 Wireless occurred in 2007, a few years after the debut album and during a time when he was promoting his album "Born Again" (2006). This album continued to showcase his distinctive blend of folk, pop, and orchestral elements. An interesting fact about Badly Drawn Boy is that he often incorporates elements of humor and storytelling in his songs, which reflects his unique lyrical style. The live performance captured his intimate and engaging stage presence, demonstrating his ability to connect with audiences through heartfelt songwriting and a charismatic delivery.
