Brix Smith

Digging with Flo

Flo is off the plot today and doing some container gardening on Brix Smith’s roof garden. Brix started out at the liberal arts college Bennington, alongside Donna Tartt and Bret Easton Ellis, before going on to join seminal British post-punk band The Fall. She was also married to Mark E Smith. Today she fronts her own band, Brix Smith - a “kind of all-female supergroup”.

Between her time in bands, she was the fabulous co-host on Gok’s Fashion Fix. Flo and Brix discuss how Brix’s acute synesthesia marries up the seemingly disparate worlds of 1970s British post-punk and the mainstream 00s TV fashion competition, whilst they pot up some tomatoes and peas.
