The Winter Tradition
Way back last October I saw a band called The Winter Tradition play at Electric Circus as part of the Oxjam festival. Back then I said that:
“The Winter Tradition are a four-piece folk group who were great live. They had to compete with a half-full room of people talking over the music, which was annoying but it’s bound to happen in somewhere like the Circus (the layout sort of facilitates it)…so yeah; soft folk vibes interlaced with rougher-hewn vocals that are closer to Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly than the pop-folk of Mumford et al.”
Since then, they’ve released a new single, in support of their album Gradients which is due out in June. The single, San Diego, was released about five days ago. The video for it is below.

Chasing Owls are one of my favourite bands in Edinburgh. I’ve seen them live many times, sometimes by accident, and every time I’ve seen them play it’s been worth it. So of course, when I heard about their new EP I hit play.
