His music has won an army of fans across the world, and Mercury Music Prize winner Badly Drawn Boy has one of the most distinctive images in the music world. But that didn't stop the Greater Manchester music icon getting mistaken for someone entirely different when back on his home turf at the weekend.
For the music star, aka Damon Gough, revealed to fans on social media a rather unfortunate case of mistaken identity when he visited a McDonald's in Chorlton. When a man approached his car he thought it was because he was a fan - but it was actually because he 'thought [he] was a drug dealer'.
The musician, known for wearing a woolly beanie, shared a photo of his dining location on Sunday night. He added a tongue-in-cheek message about the 'beautiful location' from the outdoor seats at McDonald's looking out across the busy Barlow Moor Road in the suburb.
