IMPORTANT UPDATE ABOUT AFTERLANDS - We've just received the unfortunate news that due to the dangerous storm in and around Scotland at the moment, Afterlands are now no longer able to join us this weekend.

They have tried their best to be with us but unfortunately the roads are blocked and impassable. We’re disappointed but will reschedule their appearance at Daylight Music as soon as we can later in the year.

We still have a fantastic lineup for our Lost Map show tomorrow, which will now feature Pictish Trail, Flo Lines plus a very special secret guest.

Timings for the event are: Doors - 11.50am, Flo Lines 12.05pm, Secret Guest 12.45pm and Pictish Trail at 1.20pm. With Jim Bishop setting the scene on organ throughout.

A new year and a new opportunity to book in for a musical check-up with our distant Hebridean friends at Lost Map recordings. A self-proclaimed micro-label and collective, a decade or so since it began, is very much pushing forward, onwards, upwards and away, uncovering new idea and new sounds, unshackled by style or genre.

Anything but boring and predictable, the label’s guiding voice Pictish Trail will debut new songs and stories. We will also introduce you to a new voice and member of the label - producer and songwriter Flo-Lines. Plus we welcome a secret very very special guest.

Released as part of Lost Map’s Postmap Club subscription service, Flo Lines's debut single I was biding my time revealed an extended collage-like approach to music making, informed by her  background in radio production and audio-visual art. Combining sounds both found and played, she blends compositions from different takes of  songs captured in different spaces both indoors and out, to create slow sonic medleys that transport the listener through different places and feelings.

Isle-of-Eigg dwelling electro-acoustic psych-pop wonder Pictish Trail, AKA Johnny Lynch, released his fifth album Island Family in 2022 to critical acclaim from The Observer and The Times to Mojo,  Uncut, Loud & Quiet and BBC 6 Music. Having toured the world both as a headliner and as support for artists including Belle & Sebastian, Pavement, Mogwai, Sea Power, Slow Club and KT Tunstall, he has performed at festivals including Glastonbury, Field Day, Bestival, Deer Shed, Celtic Connections, the Edinburgh Fringe and ­Green Man*  (*all 22 instalments to date).
