Video for new Mull Historical Society single Wakelines premiered

The video for the new Mull Historical Society single Wakelines has been premiered.

Colin MacIntyre will release his latest MHS album on September 21st after sessions in London with Bernard Butler. “This is my eighth album, but it feels all about firsts,” he’s said.

“About going back. The first song I wrote for the album was ’14 Year Old Boy’. It tells the story of my first electric guitar being waded ashore to the isle of Mull, held high above the waves by my father, Kenny Macintyre. It was a Fender Telecaster guitar. Whenever I play the guitar even now I still expect an electric shock, to be plugged into the mainland, to be the 14 year-old boy again with his dreams, his sketched stageplots.”

“I had a feeling about the album that I needed to get somewhere new – it was Bernard who realised what I was saying was I needed to get under my skin, lay myself bare.”
