A quick update on some recent purchases all of which are by acts which are relatively local to me.
On the back of Constant Follower's recent show at Webster's Theatre I picked up a copy of Even Days Dissolve a collaboration with Scott William Urquhart on the Golden Hum label which is also available on Bandcamp . It is well worth a listen and will keep me going until Constant Follower's new record The Smile You Send Out Returns to You comes out early next year.
Glasgow based Alison Eales is a member of Butcher Boy as well as a solo artist and has been championed on more than one occasion by JC (he even gets a name check on the album!) . I have a copy of her 4 track EP Four For a Boy and followed it up last Bandcamp Friday with her album Mox Nox on the Fika label - Link here
I have long been an admirer of Martin John Henry and have music by him as a solo artist, as part of the band De Rosa and with the duet Henry and Fleetwood. His latest project is Jewel Scheme named after a housing scheme in his native Bellshill . Here is some blurb courtesy of the Skinny. Bandcamp link here.

Scott William Urquhart & Constant Follower - Watching the Black River Run
I adore Fifty-Five North, wonderful - such purity in her voice (great that JC gets a namecheck on the album!) Also very struck by the cover artwork featured, beautiful overlapping colours/shapes.
