About the show
McLaughlin began writing songs in secret at the age of 14. After honing his craft through intimate pub gigs and local performances in Edinburgh, he made the leap to Glasgow, where he collaborated with Andy Monaghan of Frightened Rabbit fame on his debut album. Released in 2022, the album garnered widespread acclaim and set the stage for McLaughlin's meteoric rise in the indie music scene.
Featuring - Lewis McLaughlin
Scottish singer-songwriter, Lewis McLaughlin, writes life-affirming music that always manages to find the light in the dark. While he does tackle serious topics like mental health, leaving home and burn out, his signature warmth is never dulled and always finds a way of shining through. His gratitude for the people around him and their reciprocated gratitude for him is always at the crux of his songs. Musically, he brings together the community spirit of the trad music of his parents with the music of his era, specifically the electro-indie of Sylvan Esso and Animal Collective.
