A wee short show – just to let you know I am still breathing and will be back next week. Fully intended to do a full show this week but was just utterly shattered on Friday & couldn’t manage one.

Burning Shapes – Bad Karma

Three From Leith theme-tune by Alex Aitken

A special show this week to celebrate the release of the new Dropkick album, Paper Trails. I had hoped to bring you the tracks pre-release, but life conspired to get in the way (as always!). So kick back & enjoy a fantastic selection from Scotland’s finest alt-country-power-popsters and all-round top blokes.

Dropkick – Paper Trails / Words Best Left / Annabelle / Until I Fall Away / Another Day / In Your Past

See the band performing many of the songs on their YouTube channel.

Slightly different feel to the show this week, not to mention a host that was utterly shattered! A mix of music & styles from 3 continents, not to mention an ‘auld alliance’ between a Glaswegian and a Frenchman. C’est magnifique!

Heavy Young Heathens – Figueroa Street

Louise Quinn ft. Kid Loco – Oh Jackie!

The Perennials – Miss Marionette / Jonah

The soundbed was ‘Still Breathing’ by Zero Project

So, who stole summer away again? From the glorious sunshine to the utterly dreich conditions, who knows where the sunshine went? It’s got to the point that I’m beginning to think we’ve skipped a few months and bypassed summer altogether. Good job I’ve been away and booked myself two weeks in the Julian Alps at the end of July. Let jubilations begin…

These Reigning Days – Living It Up

Paris – I Say It

The Everglades – My Crime / Highway Tolls

The soundbed was ‘Tuleni’ by Tomas Dvorak

There’s some astonishingly good music coming out of Edinburgh these days. Many of the bands making it are recording at Tape Studios in Leith, making the podcast connection even closer! So who better than TFL to bring them to you?

Letters – Older Motion Pictures / Tauran

The soundbed was ‘The Murf (album version)’ by Rendezvous

Illness on Friday meant recording day was missed yet again. Back next week, I promise!

*Update* I’ve broken my promise 🙁 Sorry! Not managed to get round to recording a new show yet.

After an unexpected week off, I’m back with a triple-bill of fantastic Scottish music from bands new to the podcast. There seems to be a resurgence of great new bands in Scotland and an influx of their music in the TFL inbox; great news however you look at it!

Day of Days – Chances of Life / Fierce Mink

The soundbed was ‘Something Like Nostalgia’ by The Abbasi Brothers
