| Composer & Arranger | AlbaRoss
 | AlbaRoss is the alias of Ross Adamson, a 28 year old fifer now residing in London. He has been making music for the last 9 or so years under various names most recently [and for the longest period] as abelsonofadam. He makes off kilter electronic music and delivers the words he writes mainly in the form of rap. Being one of those people who in general day to day life just won't stop talking [and has been told; 'loves the sound of his own voice'] the pure phonetics of the words pronounced and the sheer volume of them that can be packed into a song were appealing from the first listening of Black Sunday by Cypress Hill as a [very] impressionable 12 year old.
Ross is working at present on various collaborative projects as well as rehearsing and booking shows for summer '08 with the view to gradually recording his debut LP over the summer and autumn months for the very wonderful Crystal Wish back home in Edinburgh.
As much as he enjoys doing this he dislikes writing in the third person.

As a founder member of pop trio The Lanterns, Jim was signed to Sony as a songwriter in 1997, with the group's debut single "Highrise Town", from their wisely-praised album, Illuminate Yer Heid, earning a UK Top 40 place and a number two in the dance charts.

The idea will provide a unique opportunity to compose a truly original musical score that explores the creative possibilities that occur when different cultures collide.

| John B McKenna
 | A tad existential, but mostly universal/comprehensible. Folk, bigger than Lo-Fi. Currently radio friendly, although depending on how life treats me, it's subject to change. Written around the world, mostly in Scotland. Recorded in one bedroom/rarely in garage, but always on the same 8 track. 40GB of hard drive space never seemed so small, until recently when "DISKFULL" keeps popping up on lcd screen. Inspired by people who make themselves like King Creosote, by people who get signed up big and remain cool too. Musically influenced by Neil Young, Elliott Smith, King Creosote, Neutral Milk Hotel, Tom Waits, The Elected, and anyone who uses drum machines and synthesisers with organic instrumentation. I also believe Nemis is good, and I don't see a problem with the mailing list.

Peter Coia - Songwriter, Composer and Musician.
Born - Bellshill, Lanarkshire, Scotland on October 4th 1952.
After leaving school in 1967, he worked as an apprentice engineer during the day and played guitar in local bars and clubs in the evenings. From his teens to his early twenties he performed solo and in a variety of bands playing styles ranging from Country Western & Folk to Pop. He also learned to play bass guitar, keyboard, classical guitar and began writing and recording his own music, lyrics and poems.
Peter is now an accomplished musician, composer and songwriter, who writes and produces a mixed variety of material under his own label ‘Peter Coia Music’. Although his singing capabilities leaves a lot to be desired (and he is the first person to admit this), the quality and variety of his compositions and his versatility as a musician are exceptional.
Most of his recordings are made in the studio where he plays many of the instruments himself.
Peter Coia now lives in Stirling, Scotland and as well as producing music for ‘Peter Coia Music’, he is the managing editor of 'The Scottish Post'.
There were three albums and two singles released by Peter Coia in 2008 for digital download.

| Shadowchylde
 | Shadowchylde has been an evolving band and has been in existence
for going on 8 years. The original lineup consisted of Dave Pallister
(Guitar and vocals), Brian Vargas (Bass and vocals), and Dave Biddle
(Drums). At it's inception, Shadowchylde was a cover band playing
songs by Creed, Metallica, Kiss, James Gang, and Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Their first gig was playing open mic nights at a bar in Glen Burnie
Maryland called Crossroads where they eventually became a staple act
and allowed other musicians to get up and jam with them on a wide
variety of songs.
After an unfortunate incident that saw Dave Biddle depart the
band, Dave and Brian recorded a 5 song EP of all original material
called "Mixed Emotions" and sent it off to Matt Davis of 98 Rock in Baltimore.
Matt decided it was good enough to play on his local artist show
called "Noise In The Basement" where he played the song "Suffer".
After they recorded "Mixed Emotions", Dave and Brian had an
amicable parting of the ways and Dave moved to Westminster, Maryland
where he continued writing music and eventually had enough to record
his first full length album called "The Sleeping Chylde Awakes".
Since he had no idea how to promote it at first, it simply got passed
around to some of his friends, one of whom suggested he put it up on
the Internet and go play it on Paltalk. He was a bit leary about
having it on the 'net but he did take his friend's advice and started
going into music rooms on Paltalk where he was "discovered" by a DJ
for Kansas City Internet Audio called "The Voice". He recorded a
second album during his tenure as the "first New Artist on KCIA"
called "The Chylde Discovers Love".
Dave later discovered that KCIA didn't have all their ducks in
a row but he was very happy when they brought someone new on as the
"New Artist Director". Her name was Stormy Nyght and it took her even
less time to realize how messed up KCIA was so she took all the new
artists, including Shadowchylde, and started her own station called
"The Spotlight".
During his tenure as a Featured Artist on "The Spotlight", Dave met an
extraordinary bassist named Will and Will's friend, Drummerboy Steve with
whom he re-formed Shadowchylde. They were well suited musically and they
played one gig opening for Lancaster-based Blue Corduroy where they blew the
headliners off the stage. Unfortunately, Will and Steve had little faith in their
abilities so the band broke up once again.
Determined not to give up, Dave went on to record an album of cover tunes
called "Gotcha Covered!!!" and also "Living With The Killer's Name", a double
CD of covers called "Tributes" and his latest original CD entitled "Judgement Day",
all of which are available for sale on his website.
At present, Dave has relocated to Glasgow, Scotland and is seeking new musicians to fill out the lineup...

| StrangeFeelings
 | With a lead vocalist who has a hint of Divine Comedy's Neil Hannon about his voice and songs which could have been but were never written by Syd Barrett from the Pink Floyd. This is like nothing around at the moment. It’s human music about everyday things.
The band are:
Iain Stewart: Vocals/Guitar,
Jamie Bell: All Electric Guitars,
Bryan Peterson: Bass,
John Ballie: All Drums/Percussion, Backing Vocals: Nicola Leighton.
Everyone involved in the group met whilst studying a BA (Hons) degree in Commercial Music. Lead singer/songwriter, Iain Stewart previously played as a keyboard player with bands such as; Mull Historical Society and Mercedes (Supporting Coldplay on tour - 1999). Some of the recorded work he has done includes having played on the M.H.S`s gold selling debut album "Loss" as well as their first two singles. To date, StrangeFeelings have performed around a dozen gigs, 3 of which were the Burns festival two years running (2004/05) and Edinburgh's Liquid rooms at the T Break competition (2004). Listen to two songs at the bands `my space` link below.

| The Fortunate Sons
 | The Fortunate Sons are dragging music from the manicured hands of fashion back to the swamp. Hailing from the southern suburbs of Glasgow, The Fortunate Sons have been in their current line up for little over a year. Now in their early twenties, the potential of the band has been recognised by legendary producer/songwriter Kim Fowley (The Byrds, Gram Parsons, Warren Zevon, John Lennon) who invited them to record with him. Displaying a determined work ethic and achieving prolific output, The Fortunate Sons have concieved a rich sound knee-deep in the blues, tinged with impressive harmonies. Currently unsigned, the band's highly accomplished live performances are not to be missed!
