Starting life at the beginning of 2015, Mt. Doubt is the project of Edinburgh-based musician Leo Bargery.  As a one man project, he released his debut album 'My Past Is A Quiet Beast' last year, which received radio airplay on Amazing Radio, Xfm, KEXP, and BBC Radio Scotland.  The album saw him gain praise from The Herald, The National, and be tipped as one of Vic Galloway's '25 Scottish Artists to Watch in 2016'. 

Time then some new material, and Mt. Doubt launches his 2016 with the release of brand new single 'Afterglow'.  Paired with b-side 'Hotel Key', the single will be released on 7” vinyl via Scottish Fiction (best known as Scottish music blog and radio show).

'Afterglow' once again pairs Bargery with producer Mark Morrow (The Winter Tradition), and combines sombre writing with full on quiet-loud-quiet dynamics, resulting in a track that displays a welcoming warmth yet remains slightly aloof.  The single is twinned with b-side 'Hotel Key', where Bargery's deep vocals come to the fore amidst a more stripped back set up, before building to a climatic encore.

The single will be launched with a special launch gig at Glasgow's Hug & Pint with support on the night coming from Earths, Hamish James Hawk, and Rising Pacific.  Tickets are on sale now for the advance price of £5 (+£1 sc) and you can also reserve your copy of 'Afterglow' on 7" vinyl by buying a ticket and vinyl bundle:
