A new CD of songs written and performed by Iain Strachan (guitar / vocals) with Erik Knussen (double bass)

Evelix is the stunning new album featuring the full range of Iain Strachan's songwriting talents from the soulful pop of "Pop Mantra" and the bluesey "If I Could Be Bothered" to the darkly atmospheric "The Marvellous Adventure Of Cabeza de Vaca" and the rhythmically jazzy "The Banknote". The songs are offset by arrangements of traditional tunes with a distinctly contemporary flavour - "The Ardvasar Blacksmith" blends the sounds of the low whistle and the small pipes with a Hammond organ while "Walking the Dog in the Mains of Gartly" marries the Scott Skinner fiddle tune with the Rufus Thomas soul classic.

 

EVELIX (WGMCD 0101) is currently being distributed by Highlander Music
