Dickon Edwards (born Richard Dickon Edwards; 3 September 1971), also known as Dickon Angel, is a London-based indie pop musician and diarist.[1] He was a founding member of the bands Orlando and Fosca, and briefly played guitar in the band Spearmint.[2][3]
He has kept a blog called The Diary at the Centre of the Earth since 8 December 1997[4] (predating the 1999 coining of the term "blog"[5] - he terms it an "online diary"). Excerpts from the blog were included in Travis Elborough and Nick Rennison's A London Year[6] and in the follow-up title A Traveller's Year.[7]
In March 2008 he released a printed collection of lyrics titled The Portable Dickon Edwards, which was released in a limited edition alongside Fosca's The Painted Side of the Rocket album.[8]
In 2021, Edwards completed a PhD on Ronald Firbank and the Legacy of Camp Modernism at Birkbeck College, University of London.[9]
Personal life
Known for his dandy aesthetic,[10] Dickon has peroxide blonde hair and is often seen in a white, blue, or silver-grey three-piece suit, the silver-grey suit being a bequest from fellow London dandy Sebastian Horsley.[11] Edwards is a son of the quiltmaker and author Lynne Edwards MBE,[12] and the cartoonist Brian "Bib" Edwards.[13][14] His brother was the Adam Ant[15] guitarist, Tom Edwards.[16]
