For the latest SWH! podcast Ali talks to one of Scots Whay Hae!'s favourite singer/songwriters, Annie Booth, to mark the release of her latest album Lazybody.
The two discuss how Annie feels to have a new record out, how it came to be, the differences between playing in a band and going solo, working with producer/musician Chris McCrory, the importance of collaboration, the exciting current state of Scottish music, and a whole lot more.
The two also talk about putting yourself and your songs in front of other people (both on record and live), and the importance of perspective. Altogether it's an honest and insightful conversation which will ring true with many who want to create, but find some aspects of being an artist challenging.
Lazybody is out now with Last Night From Glasgow.
