One of the most respected solo musicians in Scotland, Hubby, as he’s known, is something of a serial collaborator. Here, he adds his ‘post-flamenco’ guitar stylings to a variety of female performers. Stand-out track is a lush effort with revered folkie Kathryn Williams, while he lends complex strums and beats to a stark and spooky tune with Anneke Kampman. He remains in the background for a slightly insane time-travel dinosaur reincarnation spoken-word piece with Anneliese Macintosh, and acts as the perfect foil to the beautiful piano of Rachel Grimes. We even hear Hubbert’s voice as a whispered duet with fellow award-winner Kathryn Joseph, showing yet another sets of strings to his bow.
