Sputnik Weazel (born 1960s) is a British singer-songwriter, composer, artist and session musician. In a career that was inspired by the beat poets and politicised by punk, Sputnik has busked with Eddie Izzard, jammed with Jools Holland, and performed at numerous venues and festivals throughout Europe. Sputnik has written and released over 200 original songs to date, and has released 20 independent studio albums. From 2011 to 2016, Sputnik occupied the drum stool for the folk/punk band The Men They Couldn't Hang, playing drums and piano on their crowd-funded album, The Defiant (2014). Sputnik's latest studio recording Eulogy is a thought provoking collection of eclectic tracks, covering a wide range of subject matters.^[1]
