Our friends at Peenko have interviewed Immigrant and you can read it here.   There is also an excellent new album to get your hands on titled No Refuge.   Buy it here.

Avalanche Records have built up an outstanding reputation over 27 years and in particular have shown an enthusiasm and commitment to Scottish artists and labels.

Chaffinch are chuffed to bits to be asked by them to take part in a Scottish label week. This begins on Monday 21st February and concludes on Saturday 26th February, at 3pm with an in-store session by Burnt Island.

Also available will be a 10-track Chaffinch CD compilation titled 'Woodlands' featuring exclusive material from Burnt Island, The Second Hand Marching Band, Immigrant and South Downs. Avalanche Records, 5 Grassmarket, Edinburgh, EH1 2HY.

Immigrant has completed ANOTHER two albums which are now available from his site and also in Monorail in Glasgow from mid-December.  Chaffinch was lucky enough to hear both prior to release and we can confirm they're up to his usual brilliant standard. Titled Jao and So Pachinko both are definitely worth purchasing. Buy copies for yourself, and maybe for a friend or loved-one as a nice Christmas gift too.

'this EP is a perfect introduction to the label's ideology and some of the contemporary talent out of Scotland.'  Read the full review here:  http://7inches.blogspot.com/2010/07/whisper-ep-on-chaffinch-records.html

Immigrant has been releasing a ridiculous number of wonderful albums over the past 12 months and they keep getting better and better.  Get along to his shop and pick up a copy of the latest release 'Heart Leaps and Women Folk'.
