About the Book

From his earliest recordings in the 1990s, it was clear that Alasdair Roberts was not only a powerful performer, but also a profoundly original songwriter. In the years since then, he has honed his craft across a series of albums that comprise a richly idiosyncratic body of work. Distinctive as they are musically, Alasdair’s songs are equally notable for their articulate, poetic and often moving lyrical qualities – now starkly symbolic, now allusively ornate. This book aims to showcase those qualities, with a selection of lyrics from across Alasdair’s songwriting catalogue. The lyrics are augmented by newly written notes by Alasdair, with original illustrations by Annabel Wright, plus a foreword by the acclaimed poet Robin Robertson, and several entertaining appendices.

About the Author :
Guitarist, singer and songwriter Alasdair Roberts was born in Geislingen, West Germany in 1977. He was raised in Callander in central Scotland and is now based in Glasgow. He has worked with Drag City Records since 1996, first releasing a 7” single and three albums of self-written material under the name Appendix Out and then over a dozen albums under his own name, featuring both his own compositions and interpretations of traditional songs and ballads. He performs regularly in Scotland and further afield, and has collaborated with numerous other musicians, notably on several albums with the folk quartet the Furrow Collective.
