STILLIA https://www.facebook.com/stilliaofficial/infoBiographyStillia started in the early days of 2011 as an acoustic trio, What went from one member sat in his room recording Beatles covers, turned into a 4 piece ROCK N ROLL band.Over the months Stillia's line up had changed going from a five piece band into an all lads four piece rock n roll band. From there Stillia got back on track and started to gig around Sutton, Ashton and Burtonwood. Over the past month Stillia's line up changed once again and now the original members of Stillia are now Jack, Dave and Matty.With new addition to the band, lead guitarist Conor Moran, Stillia have had countless rehearsals and got them selves back on track. After gelling together again in a short space of time and realising they all have the same resounding love for the musicl as well as the passion, Belief and determination that their songs and the band could one day be touring an album worldwide and selling out thousands seater stadiums, The dream they chase, No one is going to tell them that its impossible. Under the new management, Stillia are steaming forward and climbing up the ladder of success, hopefully one day reaching the top.DAN LECKIE (Aberdeen)https://www.facebook.com/danleckiemusic?fref=tsBiographyAberdeen-based singer-songwriter Dan Leckie has played guitar for 21 years, and been playing live gigs for about 8 of those.

On a mission to spread the good word Lost Map to all and sundry, THE PICTISH TRAIL is now working on his third LP, whilst plotting a tour to celebrate the nationwide release of Secret Soundz Vol.1 and Vol.2 as a double album set this Spring. He’ll be performing a wide selection of his wonky pop anthems along with a few new tunes, probably aided by a few electronic gadgets, his guitar and at least a pint or three.“There’s an emotional purity to these songs, which illuminate the shadows between Screamadelica and The Flaming Lips.” Album review, 9 out of 10, UNCUT"Compulsory listening. Indebted to Hot Chip, the Beta Band and Paul McCartney, this is charming, fresh and quietly outré" ✮✮✮✮ The Observer“Enchanting, home-made electro-pop” ✮✮✮✮ MOJO“An infectious grab bag of musical styles ” ✮✮✮✮ QTuff Love are Julie, Suse and Michael - two girls and a dude from Glasgow who cut beautifully distorted guitar gems. Their debut, Junk EP (out May 5th, via Lost Map), is the sound of pure summer; dazzling, sun-streaked fuzz pop, with soft, burning melodies, and big smiling harmonies. They're like a DIY version of all the best bits of Electrelane crossed with early-MBV and a bit of Breeders swagger - and they're gonna make your year a whole lot brighter."Deranged, stuttering alt rock with a heart of gold" Clash“Shimmering lo-fi pop without the fuss and the pretention; a short injection, but it stays in your system. It’s like Pixies’ Kim Deal doing pure pop, and it sounds absolutely brilliant.” Ravechild Monoganon (“mo-NOG-OH-non”) also hail from Glasgow, although lead singer-songwriter John B McKenna currently finds himself eating and sleeping in the Swedish city of Malmö. Their most recent album, F A M I L Y, was the debut release on Lost Map last October; a kaleidoscopic psyche-grunge masterpiece, awash with layers of spaced-out weirdness, but also teeming with melody. "A disorientating mesh of angular guitar, off-kilter beats and mood piece confessionals … that slip under the skin and stay there" ✮✮✮✮ The Skinny“The record is truly exquisite; our own answer to Bon Iver’s For Emma, Forever Ago, perhaps - certainly as personal an experience for McKenna, and every bit as accomplished and heartrendingly beautiful” The Metro
Our Smallest AdventuresFife based, 6 piece, instrumental post-rock band, who have drawn comparisons to Mogwai, Explosions in the Sky and Godspeed You! Black Emperor.The Ladybird KillersFife based three piece psychedelic rock band with grungy influences! Think Bleach era Nirvana fronted by Dennis Lyxzén and you're some of the way to describing these guyeverythingwesayisfactAberdonian two piece noisy noise noise mongers. Comparable to Lightning Bolt but slightly less deranged. Dog On A SwingEdinburgh based singer songwriter Ed Ritchie sings honest songs of love, loss and walking.
