Bloody Shield Interview - Gradual Escape #003

For today’s interview, I had the pleasure of speaking with Bloody Shield (the pride of Scotland btw). We discuss his new project “Arrogance is Bliss” (which drops tomorrow so check that out PLS), his start into music, and things outside of music like footy and the joy of drinking Buckfast lol (Timestamps at bottom of description btw…) You can find Bloody Shield on all socials: Bloody Shield’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bloody1shield/?h...
