RM HUBBERT
RM Hubbert is a guitarist from Glasgow in Scotland. He writes music about love, death, friendship, mental illness and occasionally a dog called D Bone. It’s not as depressing as the previous sentence suggests.
One of Glasgow’s more prolific artists, RM Hubbert has released music under a variety of guises since 1993. It was El Hombre Trajeado’s triptych of albums released between 1995 and 2005 though, that really put Hubbert on the musical map, earning swathes of critical acclaim, three Peel Sessions and support slots with the likes of Sebadoh, Tortoise, Nick Cave, Deerhoof, Mùm, Mike Watt and The Delgados.
Following El Hombre Trajeado’s demise, guitarist Hubbert took a break from playing live and began studying a host of different musical forms before returning to the scene in 2008 and self releasing his debut solo album ‘First & Last’, in March 2010. This album was later re- released on Scotland’s legendary Chemikal Underground Records in February 2011.
His current album, Thirteen Lost & Found has just been awarded Scottish Album of The Year 2013 and his new album Breaks & Bone will be released on 27th of September.
ALASDAIR ROBERTS
Alasdair Roberts is a musician (singer, guitarist, writer of songs and interpreter of traditional ballads) who currently lives and works in Scotland. Raised in rural Perthshire, he has been based in Glasgow for many years. Since 1996 he has been releasing albums of his music on Drag City Records, firstly under the name Appendix Out and then under his own name.
The most recent CD/LP to bear his name is a collection of self-written songs entitled ‘A Wonder Working Stone’ by Alasdair Roberts and Friends (Drag City, 2013). Earlier records alternate between original material and interpretations of traditional songs and ballads of Scotland and beyond.
He tours regularly both solo and in band formats and works with a wide variety of collaborators, musical and otherwise.
