Tide Lines in concert at the 2024 Edinburgh Festival – recorded for The Quay Sessions on August 21st.
Since it is Monday and since the world is in Manic mode, I thought it might be a good idea to be a bit different this morning and offer a dose of New Folk-Indie that has become increasingly popular, especially for those not looking for something jarring to get rolling to.
Tide Line’s first studio album Dreams We Never Lost was released in June 2017 following the release of their first single Far Side Of The World some months earlier. The album is a mix of English and Gaelic songs as well as the Piob Mhor Pipe set. Two further singles Fortunes of the Fearless and The Young and The Restless were also released as singles from this album.
In October 2018 Tide Lines released a six track EP entitled Lets Make Tonight. Two singles, Heroes and Running at the Dark were released prior to the EP. Heroes won Video of the Year at the 2018 Na Trad Awards. The EP also contained a live version of Far Side of the World recorded at the HebCelt Music Festival in 2018. In November, the band sold out the Scottish music venue Barrowlands in Glasgow.
Rivers in the Light was released in July 2022 as new material from the planned third studio album, again self-produced and recorded at the group’s own studio. Written in the Scars was released in September 2022.
In March 2023, the band released their third studio album An Ocean Full of Islands and announced a tour of the United Kingdom and Ireland.[5]
Tide Lines’ fourth studio album Glasgow Love Story was released on the 25th of April 2025.
So you’re just in time to grab a copy of their new release and keep the spirit rolling.
Press Play and don’t feel the pressure – but leave the TV off. Just sayin’.
