A (relatively) in-depth analysis of Scottish chamber-pop project The Bathers in just under twenty minutes.

Referred to as 'the best-kept secret in Scottish music' The Bathers is the creative vehicle for singer-songwriter Chris Thomson. Initially active between 1985 and 2001 and reformed in 2016. In 2020, Lagoon Blues, Sunpowder and Kelvingrove Baby were reissued by Marina Records on limited edition vinyl.

Chamber-pop or Baroque-pop is the fusion of pop music with elements of classical music exemplified in the mid 1960s by songs such as In My Life by The Beatles. The term originated in publicity for the Left Banke, whose music also embodied the style.

In this episode I am in conversation with Dr. Andrew Webber.

I hope you enjoy the podcast and do leave feedback if you like what you have heard.
