Watch: Ed Harcourt – Hey Little Bruiser

English singer-songwriter Ed Harcourt offers a unique perspective on fatherhood with the latest track to be taken from sixth album Back in the Woods.

Teaming up with his wife Gita, who plays violin on the track, Harcourt’s address to his child in ‘Hey Little Bruiser’ contains the charmingly self-deprecating line “you got the good bits from your mother/and the bad parts from me”. Watch the video above.
