Read on Scotsman.com [in association with Electric Fields Festival] REVERIEME Artist of the Week in Scotland On SundayAirdrie is not the first place that springs to mind when it comes to musical excellence, but a high school English teacher in the town is set to change that. Louise Connell, who records under the name Reverieme, has been attracting attention of tastemakers including Radio 2’s Bob Harris, 6 Music’s Lauren Laverne and even Radio 4's Clive Anderson.With a pop sensibility, combined with a way with words not usually associated with the genre, she creates joyous songs, many of which are accompanied by video clips [http://bit.ly/revmeyoutube] Her most recent, Ten Feet Tall, has a rousing feel and showcases a new band. Reverieme's next gig is at XpoNorth in Inverness on Wednesday (7 June) and will be followed by festival slots including North Hop (17 June), Solas (24 June), Bute Fest (29 July) and Hawick (3 August).
