Peenko’s Scots Way-Hay! – Super Adventure Club
And now for something completely different. For those of a nervous disposition, this might be the time to look away, as you are about to enter the weird and wonderful world of the Super Adventure Club. Yes they’re on the same label as last weeks Scot Way-Hay’ers The Scottish Enlightenment, but the similarities end there.

Peenko’s Scots Way-Hay! – The Scottish Enlightenment
I first came across the Scottish Enlightenment when their name kept cropping up in the “top friends” Myspace page of a lot of the bands that I like, (yes, I prefer Myspace over Facebook, because the majority of folk from school that I have no inclination to speak to don’t loiter on there).

Peenko’s Scots Way-Hay! – RM Hubbert
Dave Grohl, the nicest man in rock? My arse. RM ‘Hubby’ Hubbert wins this title by a country mile. He also has the tunes to back this title up to. It’s not very often that I proclaim my love for instrumental music, never mind when it’s flamenco-based.

Peenko’s Scots Way-Hay! – Miss the Occupier
I guess a lot of folk read blogs to find something new and exciting and I must admit that before I started the Peenko website I tried to be a bit of hipster. Sadly, the thrill of the chase can be a lot more exciting than the end product. Being able to say you were […]

Peenko’s ScotsWay-Hay! – Over The Wall
When I first started blogging, I really didn’t know where I was going with it, there was no real plan other than to try and introduce some of my friends to good music that they might have missed. It’s not like I set out to promote Scottish music, it was just something that I found […]

Peenko’s Scots Way-Hay! – Miaoux Miaoux
Week 8 of Scots Way-Hay and it’s my pleasure to to introduce you to electro-post rock artist Miaoux Miaoux, aka Julian Corrie. I must admit that his 2007 debut album ‘Rainbow Bubbles‘ completely passed me by, thankfully his new Blooms EP didn’t. Having previously done remixes for Zoey Van Goey as well as playing in […]

Peenko’s Scots Way-Hay! – The Gothenburg Address
I’ve never really been a massive fan of post-rock bands, though it’s never been through a lack of trying. I own a couple of Mogwai albums and have seen them live on numerous occasions, but while some grown men weep I usually find my mind wandering.

Peenko’s Scots Way-Hay! – The Boy Who Trapped The Sun
It’s not often that I post about artists on major labels, however, in The Boy Who Trapped The Sun’s case I am more than happy to make an exception. It was the session that he recorded for Vic Galloway last year that first brought him to my attention.

Peenko’s Scots Way-Hay! – Burnt Island
When I first decided to do a weekly post about up and coming Scottish artists, the first name that came to mind was Burnt Island. With their forthcoming mini-album, ‘Music and Maths’ due out on March 15th, I can now stop sitting on my hands and proclaim my new found love for this band.
