Kris Drever, we love what you’re doing! A stellar opus, which, if drawn from a back drawer of despair, could well be the Orcadian’s best yet!

Vibes of all the important ‘him and hers of rootsy back porch Americana’ flicker across this slow-burning beauty from The Glass Hours, demanding rapt attention.

Mairi McGillivray. A new name and voice to savour in Gaelic song, and sufficient to stand out proud from the competition.

Evolution (in the summertime) is the ethos behind this inspired latest outing from The Hanging Stars, your favourite purveyors of, well, more than you might have expected.
