Description
An 8 piece Scottish-Canadian ‘supergroup’ whose sound can be described as indie pop meets carnival rock, The Burns Unit include Karine Polwart, King Creosote, Emma Pollock and Future Pilot AKA among their ranks
The Burns Unit is: award winning folk singer Karine Polwart, alt-folk royalty King Creosote, indie queen Emma Pollock, Indo-Caledonian pop artist Future Pilot AKA, multi-instrumentalist Kim Edgar, drummer/producer Mattie Foulds, pianist Michael Johnston and virtuosic rapper MC Soom T. Stepping out of their more familiar styles as solo artists, they have combined to create an exhilarating debut album. With elements of cabaret, dub, synth-pop, folk and underground rock, it is a cohesive and emotionally resonant recording that is both theatrical and intimate and walks the line from dark to playful and back again.
“A supergroup that manages to be more than the sum of its parts” THE SKINNY
“A dizzyingly wide spectrum of influences, yet with a sharpness of focus throughout.” THE SUNDAY HERALD
