Written by our friend and longtime collaborator, Ewen Henderson, this song is inspired by the Creag Meagaidh National Nature Reserve, both recalling its past and celebrating the resurgence of its woodland habitat.
Our 7th studio album will be officially released on 14th October 2022. We are releasing the album as a Download, CD and a special edition Double LP (which will also feature our soundtrack to the Dùsgadh short film on side D). The protection, conservation and regeneration of the natural world influenced every part of the album making process, from song composition and sourcing material to the recording process and album production.
The album was produced by renowned musician and great pal Inge Thomson, engineered & mixed by Iain Hutchison and mastered by Peter Beckhamm. It was recorded in Glasgow at GloWorm Recording studios.

2022 sees the release of their latest album Fàs (a Gaelic word meaning growth, developing and sprouting). The album is heavily inspired by the natural environment of Scotland and sees the band showcase more progressive elements in their music than ever before. Produced by esteemed musician and producer Inge Thomson (Karine Polwart/Hen Hoose), engineered and mixed by Iain Hutchison at GloWorm Recording Studios in Glasgow and mastered by Peter Beckmann. The protection, conservation and regeneration of the natural world influenced every part of the album making process, from song composition and sourcing material to the recording process and album production.
