Human Pyramids
Human Pyramids is the explosive and uplifting new project from multi-instrumentalist Paul Russell. Raised in an old mining village in the central belt of Scotland and now based in London, it features a number of handpicked musicians spread throughout the UK. A triumph of neo-classical arrangement, a world in which jubilant choir-led chamber music and post-punk meet head on to form a place where anything is possible.

The Lost Soul Band
This Scottish band published two albums on Silvertone records in 1993. Their self-released swan song album Hung Like Jesus disappeared from general release almost as soon as it had been released. The album recorded in as a trio (Gordon Grahame, Richard Buchanan and Gavin Smith) has a bit rougher edge to it than the previous country-tinged albums. Gordon Grahame has since released an album with Ben Townsend under the name Lucky Jim in 2003, and recently a solo album One Thousand Songs...>>

Early Songs
Early Songs is the pseudonym of sole member and multi-instrumentalist, David Scott. After scoring several short films in 2003, David began making his own instrumental, guitar-based music. Stirred from sleep by the finger-style guitar of Mississippi John Hurt, the many marvelous sounds of the Penguin Cafe Orchestra and the places visited by the Dirty Three, Early Songs awoke one morning in 2004 to begin its own journey. The first fruit of these travels is "Wind Wound", a self-recorded album that is set for a mid-year release on Preservation - a label from Sydney, Australia.

The Ramisco Maki Maki Rocking Horse
"I would describe my music as a collection of melodies, broken thoughts and noise. I guess I'm drifting towards the alternative folk end of the musical spectrum, but there's no real direction behind that. I'm influenced by everything and anything, I think most songwriters are. Whether it's a string of words that comes into your head while you're building a cardboard universe or a melody that suddenly rings out from a guitar as you pluck it's strings, you don't have to search for it, life presents inspiration."

Sluts of Trust
Since the Sluts of Trust first unleashed their wildly original brand of sleazy rock music to an unsuspecting audience at King Tut's on New Year's Eve 2002, they have become something of a phenomenon in their home town of Glasgow. Comprising John McFarlane's salacious lyrics of sexual combat and skuzzy, roller-coaster guitar-work and the incessant ferocity of Roo Harris' athletic drumming, the band's blistering performances command an immediate and intense response. Following a UK tour and dates in Europe, the band released a limited edition debut single which sold out in a week.

Maeve MacKinnon
Maeve Mackinnon is tipped as one of Scotland's leading young folk singers. An Honours graduate of the RSAMD's Scottish Music degree, her singing really started to come into its own prior to finalising for the BBC Radio Scotland "Young Traditional Musician 2005" award. Born into a political family, Maeve spent most of her infancy learning to walk and talk on peace marches in the 1980s, and remembers Dick Gaughan as being the first live singer she ever heard, and a major musical influence.
