Tooth & Nail is a 2013 studio album by folk musician Billy Bragg.
All tracks composed by Billy Bragg, except "I Ain't Got No Home", authorship unknown, but popularised by Woody Guthrie, based on an old Gospel song, dating back at least to the 1930s.
The album has received mixed to positive reception from reviewers.
A video was produced for the track "Handyman Blues", directed by Johnny Vegas. Vegas also starred, alongside Bragg, Stewart Lee, Kevin Eldon, Phill Jupitus, Samuel West, Neil Morrissey, Ricky Grover and Ross Noble. The video depicts a group of men gathering in a DIY store to discuss their lack of practical skills and work through their fear of items in the store.
