The Shout Louder Punk Podcast is the audio home of www.shout-louder.com, a UK zine for punks who don't like papercuts.

In each episode we aim to bring you our take on the world of DIY punk, with plenty of new tunes, gig gossip and amusing anecdotes. We will be talking about gigs we've been to recently, albums we can't stop listening to as well as tales of some of the worst experiences we've ever had!

Your hosts are Sarah Williams and Mark Bell. Sarah's a certified gig-addict and the puppet master of Shout Louder. Mark is an illustrator and guitarist who runs Umlaut Records along with his friends in the band Mug.

Give us a listen and let us know what you think!

Blair Coron is a musician and poet from Springfield, a small village in Fife, Scotland. His quiet and intimate music blends modern classical, storytelling and traditional melodies, with themes of nature, people, time and place. Through music, words and cinematography, Coron's primary intention is to create enchanting atmospheres that sets course for introspection and connection to the landscapes surrounding us.

After the success of his debut album ‘On The Nature of Things’, Coron recently released his second album and accompanying film ‘Cairn', in collaboration with the School of Scottish Studies Archives and National Trust for Scotland and funded by Creative Scotland. It is a celebration of Scottish heritage, a thank you to all it has given so far, containing new music set to archival interviews of those living in the Highlands and Islands during the early 20th century discussing local legends, childhood reminiscences and traditions long forgotten.

Following this, he has been further commissioned by Edinburgh University and the School of Scottish Studies Archives to help curate a new exhibition made to enhance viewers' experiences and connections to visual and audio materials from the Scottish Archives. This is 'A Carrying Stream', situated at 30 George Square, Edinburgh and open until September 30th.

The music for this was also released separately as an EP on August 18th

'Music now is quite amazing/Musicians unite against the enemy' - from ‘Music Now’ by Frightened Rabbit (written by Scott Hutchison) 

Scotland's music scene is overlooked and underrated. These are the sounds of contemporary Scotland: this is Music Now.
