When last Outline spoke to Nottingham’s finest, Sleaford Mods back in May 2015 they were about to headline a show at the Waterfront. Their album Key Markets had just been released to critical acclaim and the word on the streets about this hard hitting, politically outspoken, intelligent, brutally honest and real duo was just starting to spread. It wasn’t long after this gig that Jason and Andrew really hit the big time – sold out tours, accolades from the likes of Iggy Pop, signing to Rough Trade, playing Glastonbury and two documentaries about the band happened like lightning. They’re hitting Norwich up again this November, this time at the LCR. I caught up with lead singer and lyricist Jason to see how they’re coping with being thrust into the limelight and what he thinks of grime.
