Our Take

Those who have been eagerly awaiting the latest offering from the one and only Alasdair Roberts will be pleased to know that "Amber Gatherers" delivers all the whimsy, charm, and Scottish flair we have come to expect from this folk troubadour. From the opening notes of the title track, it is clear that Roberts is in fine form, blending traditional folk melodies with his own unique storytelling prowess.

The album's standout track, "Old Men of the Shells," is a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases Roberts' lyrical prowess and soulful vocals. With its intricate guitar work and haunting harmonies, it is sure to be a live favorite for years to come.

Throughout the album, Roberts deftly weaves tales of love, loss, and redemption, drawing the listener in with every word. His knack for storytelling is on full display in songs like "The Calfless Cow," where he paints a vivid picture of rural life in the Scottish Highlands.

Overall, "Amber Gatherers" is a triumph for Alasdair Roberts, showcasing his growth as a musician and songwriter. Fans of folk music will find much to love here, while newcomers will be introduced to a talent worth following. So grab your plaid scarf, pour yourself a wee dram, and immerse yourself in the world of Alasdair Roberts. You won't be disappointed.
