Wade Radford is a former underground filmmaker turned writer, photographer and poet. In the 2010s, he created numerous no-budget, guerilla underground films. His recent works include an investigative zine, 'The Last Desert Sun', that explores the life of Paul Watkins in Tecopa, who was a former Manson family member. He has also written a piece about his personal connection with the North Yorkshire legend of Thomas Busby and the Busby Stoop Inn in his work 'Busby & Me'.
His work is independent by design and has covered many themes and genres. Since 2021, he has headed his one-man label BedlamBD in the UK, which has seen the release of over 60 limited edition zines. He opts to release books via the medium of zines for their independent artistic feel and accessibility for readers, believing that art has started to feel restricted to those without budgetary constraints.
Aside from this, he was once nominated for a 'Best Actor' award for his 2014 controversial performance in 'TWiNK' and has obtained distribution globally.
His Zine Series continues to rage with a punk, anarcho sensibility, and he has covered poetry relating to the aforementioned throughout his work, as well as topics including mental health, domestic abuse, anarchism and politics, LGBT, addiction, and so much more! His 'Dear...' zine series captures landscape photography on refurbished Polaroid cameras across the UK, and his special interest releases continue.
