THE YUMMY FUR were a wild and weird mix of angular riffs, super short songs and savage vitriol / sardonic social commentary. Singer / guitarist, John McKeown, fronted the band from their 1992 inception (scores of cartoon melodies under a minute long delivered at high velocity) until their demise in 1999 (after morphing into a more muscular beast armed with eerie Eno-esque synths and longer, more hypnotic grooves).

Following the release of the compilation album Piggy Wings (Rock Action) in 2019, the band began playing live again with a current line-up of John, Brian MacDougall, Paul Thomson and Logan Gibson. Recent performances have featured new material, prompting hope that they may add a new LP to an already stellar back catalogue.

Edinburgh's BUFFET LUNCH have been plying their trade of daft, rattley and sincere pop music since 2017 and have released 3 EP's & 3 LP's to date. BL are keen on making music with others - a long list of artists which includes Me Lost Me, Lerryn, Jack Lee (Beef Jerk), Iain McCall (Lylo) and Joe Howe (Banana Oil).

After a busy 2025, releasing 'Perfect Hit' via Upset The Rhythm ("Perfect Hit! is a chocolate box, each track offering new, delicious morsels from the ridiculous to the sincere" 5 stars! The Skinny), playing in various cities across the UK and performing live a session with Riley & Coe on BBC 6music, they are now in the process of finishing their 4th LP due for release late 2026 / early next year.

'New T-shirt' was recorded and mixed by Chris McCrory at Workshop, Glasgow.
'Compleat Works' was recorded and mixed by George Horler at Watercolour Studio, Corran.
Both songs were mastered by Samuel J. Smith.
