Words by Derick Mackinnon and Olaf Furniss. Read on Scotsman.com https://www.scotsman.com/arts-and-culture/music
Anna McLuckie is a talented singer songwriter from Edinburgh, currently based in Manchester. In addition to teaching and solo work, McLuckie writes, sings and plays clàrsach alongside Sean Rogan (guitar), George Burrage (bass) and Barnabas Kimberley (drums and backing vocals) for excellent dream-folk indie band Diving Station.
They’ve been championed by The Line of Best Fit, The Skinny, Guy Garvey, Steve Lamacq and Tom Robinson on BBC Radio 6 Music, by Bob Harris on BBC Radio 2 and played festivals such as Glastonbury, Bluedot and Un-Convention (where we first witnessed them in the live setting). McLuckie was also mentored by will.i.am when she appeared on The Voice.
Their new EP, titled June Damp was released last month and it is as beautiful and delicate as it is catchy and buoyant. Produced by Hugo Meredith-Hardy (David Gray, Caro), co-mixed by band member Rogan with a sublime strings arrangement by Pete Whitfield and stunning art from Amrit Randhawa.
