Nick Cave

Nick Cave

Nick Cave is an acclaimed and prolific Australian musician, writer, and ceramic artist, best known as the frontman of Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, one of the world’s most influential and compelling bands. Nick’s previous publications include And the Ass Saw the Angel (1989), The Death of Bunny Munro (2009), and Faith, Hope and Carnage (2022), an extended conversation with co-writer Seán O’Hagan. In 2018 Nick launched The Red Hand Files, a weekly mailer where he offers candid, insightful, and sometimes poetic responses to questions from fans. Described by Nick as ‘a strange exercise in communal vulnerability and transparency’, the project has evolved from a simple Q&A forum into a profound cultural phenomenon.
