BC Camplight

BC Camplight (Brian Christinzio) is one of the most celebrated songwriters/performers in UK independent music and his story is one of resolve and redemption. Christinzio's 2023 album The Last Rotation Of Earth earned him his first Top 40 record. Subsequent touring exposed larger audiences to his breathtaking live shows. The tour culminated with his television debut, performing on Later! With Jools Holland.

Originally from Philadelphia, the multi-instrumentalist moved to Manchester in 2013 to revive his creativity following a long decline in mental health due to addiction to drugs and alcohol. Immediately after the release of 2015's How to Die In The North (Bella Union) Christinzio was deported from the UK. He managed to return, now as an Italian citizen, and strung together a series of releases that have cemented the BBC Radio 6 Music staple as one of the country's most critically praised artists. BC Camplight is an artist in his stride and his time is now.
