I'm willing to admit that I bought Polly Scattergood's self-titled 2009 debut album from a charity shop in Fort William purely because I liked the name.
I had never heard of her.
As a wee bonus it is not bad at all - slightly quirky in a Goldrappy or Bjorkesque sort of a way.
The album got to number 157 in the UK charts - I never knew they went that high. I can just about remember them going as high as 75.
She released a follow up album called Arrows in 2013.
Polly Scattergood is not a made up name, she comes from Colchester and she is 27.
I know no more.
A good find.

buying a record soley on the strength of the name is no more idiotic than buying a record because evreryone on the cover is wearing a hat
