Landscapes of eastern Scotland reimagined as instrumental compositions.

Athens of the North is releasing a new album by Andrew Wasylyk, titled Fugitive Light And Themes Of Consolation, this September.

Listen next: Boogie records from Athens of the North’s Scotland HQ

The third in a trio of releases focusing on the landscape of eastern Scotland, Fugitive Light And Themes Of Consolation’s music “drifts back inland along the River Tay’s inner estuary: a record of the low light on winter fields, empty suburban streets at dawn, the deep clear waters of the quarry excavated to build the city.

Recorded during 2019 and early 2020, the album also features string arrangements by musician Pete Harvey.

Fugitive Light And Themes Of Consolation follows Athens of the North’s release of a compilation of lovers rock covers, called For The Love Of You, this March.
