In a nutshell: A stalwart of the folk scene, JY was doing his thing way before it was hip to be in touch with your acoustic, strumming side. His fourth album is a glorious rattle bag of laments, cover versions and traditionals that reveal the side of Yorkston that would
happily sit in on a high-spirited ceilidh or woozily engage harmonies at one of the Fence Collective's legendary homegames.

Imagine if you will: Toasting musical marshmallows with Thom Yorke and Nick Drake whilst trying to keep Shane MacGowan from throwing lighters into
the fire.
