Watch the short film about Singer and harpist Rachel Newton’s latest album ‘Here’s My Heart Come Take It’. It provides a fascinating insight into her bold approach to do things differently this time around.

When Ross Cockburn met Jay Brown something clicked and Dark Green Tree was the happy result. Adding the voice of Cera Impala to the dream-pop-Americana of Secret Lives proves a further stroke of genius. A record that fulfils a dream and sets in motion whole new flights of fantasy and imagination of its own, wrapped up in a set of blissful tunes and honeyed harmony.

Simon catches Bella Hardy at The Slaughtered Lamb for her battleplan album launch. With her full band The Midnight Watch also present it turns out to be a spectacular evening and a great performance.

Bella Hardy’s ‘battleplan’ is by far and away her most consistent record to date which reunites her with producer Mattie Foulds. It may also be amongst the best sounding CDs you’ll hear this year.

Bella Hardy releases her new single ‘Three Pieces Of My Heart’ the first taster of her forthcoming studio album ‘Battleplan’. If this is anything to go by we are in for a treat, possibly her best yet!

Next month, Karine Polwart is to release a brand new DVD titled ‘Here’s Where Tomorrow Starts’. It is filmed largely in The Scottish Borders and features live favourites such as “Daisy”, “Sorry” and “Follow the Heron”. Watch a preview now and get her Autumn tour dates!

The Burns Unit is an 8 piece indie folk collaboration between some of the best names including King Creosote and Karine Polwart. Their much anticipated album, Side Show, was released in August.
