  • Description

    The new album from Mull Historical Society In My Mind There's A Photograph is released on Oatmeal coloured vinyl with Last Night From Glasgow. Following on from the critical and commercial success of In My Mind There's A Room Colin MacIntyre once again looks to the literary world for inspiration. Featuring lyrical contributions from world-leading authors on a single significant photo to them. They are best-sellers, Pulitzer, Booker, Women's Prize & Saltire Award-winners: Irvine Welsh, Ali Smith, Len Pennie, Alexander McCall Smith, Jehan Bseiso, Louise Welsh, Irenosen Okojie, Paul Lynch, Colum McCann, Yiyun Lee, Alan Johnson and Dan Richards. The songs shine a light on hope, empathy and understanding, just what we need in this fractured world. Exploring themes of childhood, place, identity, memory, family, language and more, the album spans the globe. From the horrific impact of Gaza and 9/11, to tales from Inverness to Botswana, from China to Glasgow. Colin, an award-winning author himself, allows these stories to bloom beautifully, providing a platform for the powerful lyrical content. All songs were written by Colin MacIntyre and the authors. The album was arranged and produced by Colin MacIntyre, and recorded on the Isle of Mull by Gordon Maclean. It features a guest spot from the London African Gospel Choir.

    "I'm so excited by this record, and to be working with the progressive LNFG. It's been a privilege to step into the author's photos, making me think about such questions as, why is one person's image of war, another person's image of home? And all starting from the same universal theme: a photograph. The fun part is bringing my two creative worlds together, music & writing, but what I've discovered is they're really the same: it's all storytelling. The author's words started to feel like my own. They've taken me around the world, but this is 'Made on Mull'." - Colin MacIntyre on In My Mind There's A Photograph
