Andrew Fearn of Sleaford Mods Discusses Veganism, Fame and Politics | The Viva Vegan Podcast

Andrew Fearn, the quieter half of Sleaford Mods, opens up about his vegan journey, compassion for animals and trying to do what he can.

Sleaford Mods have described their work as "electronic munt minimalist punk-hop rants for the working class." Williamson is responsible for the words, Fearn for the music. Sleaford Mods songs have been described as embittered rants about such topics as unemployment, modern working life, celebrities and pop culture, capitalism, and society in general.

In this conversation, Andrew and Faye discuss topics, such as:

austerity and poverty in the UK
becoming very famous and what it feels like
Andrew's interest in charities, from Viva! to Shelter
the best places for vegan food while touring
playing the Sydney Opera House
how he tries to use his platform to highlight causes he cares about
