Skerryvore

Tempus

£8.99

Released: 28th April 2023. Skerryvore have reinvented and reignited Scottish roots music with a modern alt-pop flavour that has connected with an ever-expanding multicultural global audience. But as the pandemic broke, the octet's international touring immediately ceased. Yet from challenge came opportunity. Vocalist/guitarist Alec Dalglish had the time to develop his initial song ideas in more depth, while subsequent full band sessions in bagpiper/whistle player Scott Wood's studio in Glasgow benefited from the freedom such an independent environment provided them. And when they returned in 2021 with 'You and I', the track became their first to be playlisted at Radio 2 buoyed by huge support from Jeremy Vine. Further emboldened by the Celtic-tinged rock follow-up 'Together Again', Skerryvore focused on broadening the core of their sound with a fresh pop immediacy and wider stylistic adventures. The result is 'Tempus', an album epic of melody, intimate of feeling and plugged into the roots of Scotland but blasting out to the world.
