Next door on Constitution Street, at The False Widow bar, yer old pals Lost Map will be curating a special free-entry daytime event featuring live sets from among others R.Aggs, Curtis Miles and brand-new Lost Map signing Dominie Hooper (pictured below). Come evening, there’ll be an afterparty from 8pm until late at Leith Cricket Club, hosted by Supper Club and featuring a variety of special guest DJs (tickets on sale now).

FAITH ELIOTT VIDEO SESSION + DRYAS ALBUM LAUNCH TICKETS ON SALE NOW
|
|
A lush and mysterious trove of sound and poetry touching on everything and anything from hagfish to Pleistocene volcanoes, cursed memes and late-Renaissance apocryphal monsters lurking in the aisles of ASDA, dryas is the spellbinding new album by Minneapolis-born, Scotland-based singer-songwriter Faith Eliott (they/them). It’s set for release on May 30, 2025, on limited-edition 12” pastel pink coloured vinyl and via digital services. To celebrate its arrival, we're hosting a launch party at Leith Cricket Club in Edinburgh on Friday, June 13. It'll feature a full-band set from Faith, plus special guests and DJs until late. Tickets, available on a "pay what you can" scale from £10-£20, are on sale now.
A special Lost Map live session by Faith on their canal boat home has been filmed by long-term collaborator Mario Cruzado, featuring accompaniment from album producer Robyn Dawson. A performance of 'snowglobe' from the session – a haunting, post-apocalyptic ballad wrapped in atmospheric production – is available to watch now, with more tracks set to be released in coming weeks.

MARCH POSTMAP CLUB
FEAT. FIRESTATIONS, FELL + BLIND YEO
|
|
|
There's so much bulge in the PM Club bag this month that we've had to resort to a bulletpoint list to get through it all:
• Firestations: 'All The Way Back Down Here'
(w/ exclusive MixCloud mix)
A wistful, dream-like song about the end of a great journey. No, not a walk to Lidl to buy "Snaktastic" Meaty Multipack Crisps x30™, but a sailing trip around the west coast of Scotland, the inspiration for Firestations' sea-salty new LP Many White Horses (available to pre-order now).
• 'Fell: 'Temple Teeth'
A hypnotic, waltzing gem with shimmering melodies and a vintage glow by Fell AKA London-based artist, illustrator, guitarist, singer and songwriter Nicolas Burrows. Another delicious taster from a forthcoming new collection of Fell songs, due Spring 2025 (TBA). Promises to be even tastier than Lidl's "Taste of Asia" range™.
• Blind Yeo: 'Half Light'
Motorik grooves and atmospheric vocals blend to psychedelic effect, showcasing the Cornish collective's signature sound and setting the stage for new music later this year. Even Cornisher than a Lidl "Chef Select" Cornish Pasty three-pack™.
