ALASDAIR ROBERTS

Returned from his voyages of discovery around the globe, Alasdair Roberts has brought a sac of assorted goods for you merchants, eight epic new songs…Spoils. Alasdair Roberts is one of Scotland’s best young singers and song writers, and as the years pass, his artistry borrows more and more from centuries before. On his fourth solo album, Alasdair brings with him a crew working with ancient instruments while supporting an album that is meted out evenly with an intense energy always in service of Alasdair’s finest melodies. Spoils ingratiates new compositions in a deeply personal manner with the world of traditional music that has sunk beyond the horizon for too many of us. It is a gift to these latter days that a man like Roberts exists, to sing us back to our ancient home.

KITCHEN CYNICS

This is what Triptych said about Alan earlier last year. It sounds great, so we copied it…again.

“A one-man psych-folk vanquisher from Aberdeen, Alan Davidson – aka Kitchen Cynics – has cultivated wry acoustic apologues and warm machine parables since the Eighties. He’s propagated a slew of cassettes and CDRs, while live alliances include Damon & Naomi and Masaki Batoh (Ghost). Davidson’s mythological, prosaic and deadpan narratives map the universal and the personal: celebrating in equal measure the sea and lasagne; fossils and love.”

AMBER WILSON

Solo acoustic singer / songwriter making her first proper appearance at an IMP gig. Why the hell has it taken us so long?

Ex-Morcheeba singer with “hauntingly beautiful vocals and amazing lyrics”.
