Burns Unit - Side Show - CD

2010 debut album from this indie supergroup consisting of Folk singer Karine Polwart, Alt-Folk royalty King Creosote, Indie queen Emma Pollock, Indo-Caledonian pop artist Future Pilot AKA, multi-instrumentalist Kim Edgar, drummer/producer Mattie Foulds, pianist Michael Johnston and virtuosic rapper MC Soom T. Stepping out of their more familiar styles as solo artists, they have combined to create an exhilarating album. With elements of Cabaret, Dub, Synth-Pop, Folk and underground Rock, it is a cohesive and emotionally resonant recording that is both theatrical and intimate and walks the line from dark to playful and back again.
