The Pictish Trail & Seamus Fogarty
Three leading lights of Scotland's Fence Collective, based in Anstruther, will be performing at the Byre Theatre to collaborate on stage, share songs, a laugh and some blether. James Yorkston was the first member of The Fence Collective and has toured with the likes of Bert Jansch, John Martyn and Martin Carthy. His first Album went onto become Rough Trade's Album of the Year 2002 The Pictish Trail is the nom de plume of singer-songwriter Johnny Lynch 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 musical endeavours reflect a wide scope of ambition, expressed with the same modest confidence that betrays an immense talent. Seamus's songwriting, performance and production techniques are each infused with a strong sense of identity, strikingly unique, and always sincere.
