The Tracks Of My Year : Scots Whay Hae!’s Favourite Albums of 2021…

In what was a quite incredible year for Scottish music, against all the odds, we have managed to whittle our favourite releases down to a manageable Top Ten Albums of the year.

Below are videos of tracks from each one, and we hope you find something to pique your interest. If you do then please purchase directly from the artist or their record labels (all the titles in orange will take you where you want to go) because the world, which is difficult enough as it is, would be intolerable without music and those who make it.

James Yorkston & The Second Hand Orchestra - The Wide, Wide River

Andrew Waslyk - Balgay Hill: Morning In Magnolia

Stanley Odd - Stay Odd: The Magic of Everyday Things

Rebecca Vasmant - With Love, From Glasgow

Linzi Clark - All I Have Now

Lola In Slacks - Moon Moth

Constant Follower - Neither Is, Nor Ever Was

Cahill//Costello - Offworld
