Throughout the years, Sadier has occasionally collaborated with German electronica group Mouse on Mars. In 2010 she released a solo album called The Trip.http://www.myspace.com/laetitiasadierSTEVEN MILNEA lynchpin in Aberdeen's music scene, Steven Milne wears many hats; musician, promoter, DJ, booker, you name it. Hardest working man in show business. Perhaps best-known as lead singer in respected Scottish indie-pop band The Little Kicks, he's now branching out with solo material including recently release album Chasing Phantoms on Bedford Records which is a shimmering slice of pop/folk goodness full of the kind*of gems which are making ears twitch around Scotland and far, far beyond...*http://www.myspace.com/stevenmilnemusicIONA MARSHALLIona Marshall is now based in the West end of Glasgow, becoming recognised there for her original live performances, fusing melodic folk with experimental synth parts, delicate harmonies, found samples and acoustic guitar hooks. Her beautiful songs are Celtic tinged and her solo performances are heartfelt and enigmatic. She sings about landscape, love, travel, spirituality and whatever sounds come out in a stream of consciousness. Her unique song-craft has been honed over many years, blending life-long influences with modern interpretations and experimentation, exploring her passions, emotions and philosophies through sublime, haunting sound-scapes. http://www.myspace.com/ionamarshall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
