This week Brògeal release their new single "Go Home Tae Yer Bed" ahead of their debut album. "Go Home Tae Yer Bed" is Scottish band Brògeal's most personal release yet.
“Been sitting on this tune for a year or two, again not knowing what to do with it. The boys done a really good job adding their instruments to it, as I’d honestly no direction to go in", says Aidan Callaghan. "This song deals with grief, and that’s all I’ll say.”
Featuring a stunning Gaelic translation and vocals from Lewis’s Josie Duncan, it’s a raw, moving departure from their usual sound—the band's debut album Tuesday Paper Club will be out on October 17.

The second single by fantastic young sibling-duo, The Cords, has been released today. It's short, sweet, upbeat… the perfect pop song for a heatwave summer! The Cords' debut album, is scheduled for release on September 26th.
The Cords are the brightest new indiepop band from Scotland. Comprising sisters Eva and Grace Tedeschi, they started playing drums when they were little kids. They found that they liked 80s and 90s indie music more than their peers did, and so formed a band, just the two of them, with Grace on drums and Eva on guitar – and the songs started to flow.
With only a cassette and a flexi single released so far (both of which sold out in a matter of hours), Eva and Grace honed their skills by playing a whole series of gigs with some of the biggest names in Scottish pop. Their first show was with The Vaselines, and since then they have played with Camera Obscura, Belle and Sebastian, BMX Bandits and others, while also sharing stages with the new generation of indiepop stars: the Umbrellas, Chime School, Lightheaded. They are embraced by established stars and adored by their contemporaries.
The Cords were invited to record a session for Riley and Coe on 6 Music on the back of their early releases, and have now recorded their eagerly-awaited debut album, which will be co-released by Skep Wax (in the UK and Europe) and Slumberland Records (in America). Like all great pop bands, The Cords have taken familiar ingredients and created something utterly fresh. Older indie fans will hear echoes of The Shop Assistants, The Primitives, Tiger Trap and Talulah Gosh, but they will hear something else too: a yearning, dreamy melodic power that takes the songs into darker, stranger places.
