Steven John Hamper, noto con lo pseudonimo di Billy Childish, è un artista britannico multiforme attivo dal 1970s. Figlio di una famiglia working-class del Kent, Childish ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale come cantante e chitarrista dei The Medway Poets, band proto-punk che ha contribuito a definire il movimento post-punk inglese. Dopo lo scioglimento dei Poets, Childish ha continuato a registrare musica sotto diversi pseudonimi, esplorando generi come il rock alternativo, la musica folk e il glam rock. Oltre alla musica, Childish è un pittore prolifico, poeta e scrittore, pubblicando numerosi libri di poesia e narrativa. La sua arte riflette spesso le sue esperienze personali e sociali, con temi che spaziano dalla nostalgia per l'Inghilterra rurale al disagio della vita moderna. Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "The Ballad of Billy Childish", "I Am the Man" e "She's Got a Gun". Childish è considerato un artista underground di grande talento, apprezzato per la sua originalità, la sua intensità emotiva e la sua capacità di attraversare generi musicali diversi.
