Karine Polwart's Scottish Songbook

Award - winning songwriter and folk singer Karine Polwart breathes new life into a collection of well - loved Scottish pop songs spanning five decades. Classic 80s hits from Deacon Blue, The Waterboys, and Big Country blend seamlessly with Biffy Clyro's stadium anthems. Maverick Ivor Cutler meets the electro - pop of Chvrches and John Martyn's perfect songwriting. Recorded at Chem 19, this songbook features Karine's regular bandmates Steven Polwart and Inge Thomson, along with Graeme Smillie on bass and keys, Calum McIntyre on kit and percussion, and Louis Abbott of Admiral Fallow on vocals, guitar, and percussion. Karine says these songs are full of resilience, resistance, despair, and hope, and they're also love letters to familiar people and places that fill her heart. Ideal for fans of The Staves, Gillian Welch, Lucy Rose, Julie Fowlis, Cara Dillon, and Lisa Hannigan.
