Bugg, recently told the Coventry Telegraph that winning the Mercury Prize doesn't mean a lot to him. "That's not why I make music, to get awards," the musician said, whose debut is up against the likes of David Bowie, Disclosure and Arctic Monkeys for this year's award.
'Slumville Sunrise' is taken from Bugg's second album Shangri La, which is due to be released November 18th.
