Jim Gellatly’s back with his weekly update of what’s hot and happening in the Scottish scene.
This time round even more first-timers on Jim Gellatly’s New Music including a band who recorded their album with legendary US producer Kramer, but more recently have been working with former Beta Band man Steve Mason… there’s a couple of ex-pats now living out the Rock N Roll dream in Denver, Colorado… just why Jim thinks a Glasgow hip hop act wipes the floor with the latest Black Eyed Peas chart-topper.

love the Burnt Island tune Jim.
Warm, gentle and soothing. Just what was needed after a jounry home in the cold, rain and darkness.
Podcast was my accompanyment from Burntisland to Edinburgh this morning. Fair brightened a dreich morning. Highlights for me were Ambulances, Kitty the Lion and Burnt Island (good name!). And while Maeve O’Boyle’s track was quite “poppy” it was a good example of that. I’m late to this podcast on account of being lazy, but glad I’ve subscribed. Look forward to more. Since I’m generous I’ll even wish you good luck for Sunday! (Don’t tell my mates though)
