AZAMIAH

Blair Davie is a singer-songwriter from Perth, Scotland, whose journey began at just 12 years old when they recorded their first record. After fronting several bands, Blair found their voice as a solo artist, shaping a sound rooted in emotional honesty and vulnerability. Their new EP, First and Last, is testament to Davie’s prodigious talent both as a vocalist and songwriter. Inspired largely by a long-term relationship, it is a startlingly intimate portrait of the kind of love Davie never expected to find.

BLAIR DAVIE

Two wandering souls on a ‘Train To Nowhere’. YES AND MAYBE are a Scottish-French duo that blend instinct and precision to craft music that feels both familiar and unpredictable. Meeting online, the French multi-instrumentalist "Yes" and the Scottish producer/vocalist "Maybe" create songs grounded in introspection, storytelling and the indie sounds of the 2000s. Embracing a remote collaboration, their debut album ‘Train to Nowhere’ was written and produced entirely over WhatsApp. It captures raw emotion through intricate melodies, atmospheric vocals and sharp lyricism. For YES AND MAYBE, it's all about capturing authentic feelings and creating music that resonates on a deeper level.
