A lovingly crafted salute to the land which bore him, King Creosote's 'From Scotland, With Love' was a marvellous return.
Designed to accompany a documentary utilising footage of generations past, the Fife based songwriter was able to impact a similar sense of timelessness in his music. (Clash review HERE)
Playing a handful of live shows, the Scottish artist has mixed new material with old, plundering his archives for a series of special performances.
Set to play Glasgow's sprawling Celtic Connections event in January, King Creosote will then head out on a nationwide tour.
