Featuring
Kathryn Joseph
Prodigiously talented and criminally underrated; Kathryn is one of Scotland's best-kept secrets. Her voice possesses the other-worldly quality comparable to Ms Newsom and Björk; but she is by no means of an ilk. Better compared with Anthony Heggarty; she is an artist in every way; unique and soulful, and at the core a beautiful unnerving truth.
Broken Chanter is the adopted name of David MacGregor. MacGregor spent the past decade as the principal songwriter of Scottish Alt-Pop darlings Kid Canaveral.
A light-hearted raconteur and heavy-hearted singer when accompanied by just a guitar, and a whirling dervish of noise and melody when fully electric, MacGregor spent February - May 2018 recording in Gort na Luchóg, Co. Donegal, nestled on a remote peninsula protruding into the Atlantic, and in Glenwood Studios in Glasgow.
Kai Reesu are a melting pot of underground hip-hop and jazz led by Paul Copeland on keys and centred around a core rhythm section with Matt Sim on drums and Robert McArthur on guitar and bass. They blend elements of psychedelia, grime and melancholic neo-classical piano into a foundation of old skool funk and progressive hip-hop, with thumping polyrhthms and rich horns.?
Based in Edinburgh, alternative folk singer/ songwriter Hailey Beavis is testament to true creative art. A self taught musician, writer and artist, Norfolk born Hailey is currently recording her debut album, due for release in 2014, to further enhance her reputation as one of the UK’s finest evolving artists. Her voice and songs are honest and true to her life experiences, revealing a boundless and free imagination.
