A novelist, songwriter, guitarist, producer and music teacher, he now lives in East Sussex with his wife, two children and a grumpy cat. Following Broadlake’s publication, Bingham has been working on his next projects: a children’s picture book, The Kind Wasp, to be released in June 2025, and a second novel, The Five O’Clock Club, due for publication in 2026.


Bingham landed a book deal with Thinkwell in 2022, but he is also signed to NorthStar Music and Post House Music. He has recorded four albums with The Good Ship Band and Part 5 is due out in May 2025. Below are four tracks from the forthcoming release.
