Ridiculously under-publicised due to lack of effort on his part, and criminally under-listened to due to lack of effort on everybody else's part, Boy:48 is an Edinburgh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 graphic designer and married father of two who likes to write, make, record, produce and publish music when he can. His SoundCloud page has over 250 tracks on it, dating from ancient lo-fi tape demos from 1988, to regular releases as they are finished, at the rate of one or two a month. Thirteenth collection of demo's, 'Scatterling', released in December 2015, followed by double-collection Matryoshka (late 2017) and Krokodyl (early 2018). There followed a period of fulsome activity resulting in the OZALID and Dream, Daedalus albums, and while beginning his Sleepshow collection, lockdown struck and he walloped 26 tracks in just 6 months - one a week, resulting in much slapdash work. 2021 saw a return to normal with the completion of Sleepshow in March, and Ink Traps in December. 2022 saw his collection FASH completed, and its follow-up, DWAM, was completed in the second half of 2023. 2024 has served up seventeen new tracks, which are bundled in the collection, Charivari, which was released January 2025. Be advised that all the stuff is demo's - that means they are there to showcase, or give an impression of, what a piece could sound like. But they've not been done by professionals, nor in ideal recording conditions, so all sorts of qualities, details, dynamics etc. will not be the best possible. So think of them as worked-up sketches, rather than studio-made productions. All of them are AMDG - Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam: To the Greater Glory of God.

I’m a composer and singer-songwriter living in Edinburgh. I make work that ranges from opera, music theatre and song, to chamber and orchestral music.  I lecture at Edinburgh College of Art, specialising in composition and song writing, whilst making bespoke work for my own voice, and for the voices of others- who range from international opera singers to people struggling with Long Covid.

My stage works are often site-responsive, happening in lighthouses, distilleries, nuclear bunkers, and libraries. I create award winning commissions for companies such as Scottish Opera, Tapestry Opera, National Theatre of Scotland, Ulster Orchestra, BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, and Chamber Music Scotland. 

My new album, Songs from the Last Page, written for myself on vocals and piano, with violin and cello, will be released on 11th August 2023.
