Plastic Animals – Reviewed
I haven’t been all that excited by new Scottish bands for a while, so it’s quite nice to see some more interesting ones emerging again.

Peenko’s Scots Way-Hay! – Aerials Up

PAWS – Reviewed

Scotland on Tour with Vic Galloway – Rachel Sermanni in LA
Later that usual, as a result of some unforeseen issues at Dear Scotland HQ, Vic presents his weekly round-up of Scottish international gigs with a closer look at Rachel Sermanni. I’m also conscious that I may be missing a few gigs so if you see any glaring omissions let me know.
