After a couple of months of touring and cavorting with middle-aged alt-rock heroes, PICTISH TRAIL has returned to Eigg, and realises that the Lost Map admin pile has gone out of control. Thankfully LAURA is on-hand, via internet connection from Edinburgh, to sort through this month’s releases on PostMap Club, and our upcoming live music events.

Our featured interview this month is with ALLIYAH ENYO, a multi-disciplinary artist from Edinburgh, who came up to stay in St Franny’s Bothan on Eigg in May of 2022 to take part in our VISITATIONS residency project. She chats to us about her life in music, her debut album release for Somewhere Between Tapes, her performance at Hidden Door Festival, as well as her experience on Eigg.

Also this month … we’ve got a taste of new music from FREE LOVE; an as-yet-unreleased album track from FELL; something from the vaults by BALLBOY; as well as news on a variety of upcoming label showcases - including two shows in December for DAYLIGHT MUSIC, the line-up for our HUMBUG! events in Glasgow and Edinburgh, plus info on the first of many "10th Anniversary" shows for 2023.

To support everything we do at Lost Map, you should join PostMap Club. Membership starts at just £3, and you'll receive printed postcards delivered to your door every month, containing download codes for new music from the label. You'll receive a badge, too - as well as a newsletter and a discount for 15% on records, CDs, tapes and other merch in our webshop. Digital & gift memberships are also available. Visit lostmap.com/club for details on how to join.
