Fence Collective presents: James Yorkston, The Pictish Trail & Seamus Fogarty
T0
James Yorkston is the first member of the Fence Collective to emerge from the creative oddity that is the East Neuk of Fife, James Yorkston's first solo show was supporting Bert Jansch, his first tour was supporting John Martyn. After those heady heights he went on to sign to Domino Records and record his debut album in a damp-soaked cottage in the Scottish Borders. The Pictish Trail is the nom de plume of singer-songwriter Johnny Lynch, who - alongside Kenny Anderson (aka King Creosote) - runs Fence Records. His music is a sonorous mixture of acoustic-driven balladry and lo-fi synthesised pop, that has been described as "a post-summer trove of sun-warped electro, anamorphic folk" (Plan B Magazine). Seamus Fogarty hails from the west of Ireland and writes songs about mountains that steal t-shirts, women who look like dinosaurs and various other unfortunate incidents. Seamus's songwriting, performance and production techniques are each infused with a strong sense of identity, strikingly unique, and always sincere.
