Lots of good art this month, kicking off at INVERNESS MUSEUM & ART GALLERY

(IMAG) with a new installation of painting, print-making and sculpture by internationally

recognised artist, TOBY PATERSON [1]. He finds inspiration in what might seem the most

unpromising of places, including the concrete landscapes of post-war housing schemes

and the decaying remains of utopian building projects. The show is part of something

called Generation, a national celebration of the best of Scottish art from the last 25 years

linked to the Glasgow 2014 Cultural Programme. The show runs from 26 JUL23 AUG and

theres a preview & talk on 26 JUL from 122pm.

IG:LU at 19 CHURCH ST continues to be the finest place in town to catch up-and-coming

talent and the show from LAURA MOON [2]running from 0215 AUG looks like being no

exception. CalledMA DA, its a body of work which grew from perceptions of authority and

social control Its become a portrait exploring the life of her first authority figure, her father

Lawrence WJ Tierney, who died of Alzheimers aged only 55.

The process of making this work has been a way of finding out who he was as a human

being, as a regular guy,says Moon. Walking his walks I have tried to experience whathe experienced before I came into his life. The work that came out of this intenselypersonal journey has been a juxtaposition of strength and fragility. These two words, forme, sum up what I feel was the nature of our father-daughter relationship.

Meanwhile, from 1831 AUG you can catch METAMORPH MODELS [3]by MARK STEVENS

futuristic fighting machines with a retro Sci-Fi edge. Mark sculpts with his own unique

method to create sophisticated and realistic hardware. The irony is, that no matter how

realistic and belligerent they appear, they are made from broken everyday objects. Ace.

Another IG:LU favourite is ROSIE NEWMANand you can catch a piece she presented thereif you get to BELLADRUM FESTIVALon 08 & 09 AUG. Sometimes I Feel More Awake

When Im Asleepwas inspired by time working at Inverness Prison and includes prison

beds, ladder and poles. Itll be near the Temple area. Another piece, Sheep Asleep In

Treesapparently involves sedated sheep, which has us intrigued already. Youll find that

one near Mothers Ruin. Other artists on show at Bella include SARAH WAKEFORDwith

her life-size horse lanterns, VISION MECHANICSwith their willow heads in trees, ALISON

WEIGHTMAN & ROBIN WEBBs take on Rodins The Thinker(to be ceremonially burnt) and

SERGEJ ANDREEVSKIwholl be making huge dance paintings to accompany a live band.

Scotlands newest arts festivalA spectacular celebration of arts and culture at the heart of

Moray, showcasing artists of national and international renown

8/11/2019 ICA Aug 2014 - issue 144

12/64

On this years Independence Day weekend in the US, cinema takings were down 50% on

2013, perhaps suggesting Hollywood needs to examine its blockbuster formula. And aptly

thats reflected in the fact that this month sees the release of a whole slew of movies doing

something a little more interesting. Even SIN CITY 2: A DAME TO KILL FOR [1]looks like

having a bit of panache as co-directors Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller reunite to bring the

latters visually stunning graphic novels back to the screen.

AUDREY TATOU, being French, knows what good cinema is about, so its little surprise shes in

MOOD INDIGO [2], an inventive romantic yarn directed by Michael Gondry (Eternal Sunshine Of The

Spotless Mind) and featuring, uniquely, a cocktail-making piano. Thats yer continentals for you.

More great acting in GODS POCKET [3]and sadly the last chance to see the tragically

departed PHILIP SEYMOUR HOFFMAN on screen - about death and cover-ups in the gritty, blue-

collar neighbourhood of the title. Also features the excellent CHRISTINAMad MenHENDRICKS.

Interestingly, another Mad Menalumnus JON HAMM stars in the interesting looking THE

CONGRESS [4]. Its a sneaky dig at the film industry itself as ageing[Steady on! - Ed] actress

ROBIN WRIGHT (playing a version of herself) decides to preserve her digital likeness for afuture Hollywood, only to be sucked back in twenty years later. HARVEY KEITEL co-stars, which

is reason enough to make attendance compulsory.

The presence of BEN WHISHAW is invariably as good a recommendation as any, so his latest,

LILTING, should be worth a look. Set in contemporary London, this film tells the story of a

Cambodian-Chinese mother mourning the untimely death of her son whose world is suddenly

disrupted by the presence of a stranger.

Belle & Sebastian fans (arent we all?) will be delighted to learn that Stuart Murdochs long-

awaited crowd-funded, Glasgow-based GOD HELP THE GIRLis finally out this month. EMILY

BROWNING plays Eve, the girl of the title, who writes music to cope with a life thats falling apart.

Whatever you do, dont miss the brilliant TO SEE OURSELS(sic) season at EDEN COURT

featuring a diverse range of classic Scottish film &TV drama screenings and discussions

offering audiences an opportunity to think again about questions of Scottish history, culture

and identity. Highlights include the magnificent THE CHEVIOT, THE STAG & THE BLACK,

BLACK OIL, John Byrnes rarely seen follow-up series to Tutti Frutti, ANOTHER TIME ANOTHER

PLACE (starring TILDA SWINTON, KEN STOTT and JOHN GORDON SINCLAIR), the classic

LOCAL HEROand, suitably, FROM SCOTLAND WITH LOVE. The latter is made entirely from

archive Scottish film by Virginia Heath with a soundtrack by KING CREOSOTE. The two of them

will be holding a Q&A after the 06 SEP screening, with KC playing a few songs. Fine stuff.

But, if blockbusters are what you want, choose from THE EXPENDABLES 3 [5], THE

INBETWEENERS 2, INTO THE STORMand the kids biggie, PLANES 2: FIRE & RESCUE...

You can win tickets (& popcorn) for some of these, see p26/7 and our website...

Last August TWIN ATLANTICwere headlining

Belladrum, this month theyre back promoting their

new album Great Divideat Ironworks. We caught

up with stickman CRAIG KNEALE

Your new album - The Great Divide - does it mark a sea

change or a gradual progression? Does it have an overall

theme? - Id say its somewhere in between actually. We

havent gone jazz or anything like that, but its definitely

quite different to our last album Free. Its simpler but

more dynamic in terms of the songs that are on there.

There isnt an overall theme but the majority of the songs

were written whilst we were on tour so those experiences

definitely tie it all together when I listen to it.

Your favourite place in the world to play? - Its quite

clichd to say, but Glasgow is hard to beat for us. Were

very lucky that theres people that are very passionate

about our band many places that we play now - but there

is something added when we play Glasgow. I think the

crowds here have a sense of ownership of us that add

this extra emotion to the gigs. Its hard to describe but the

shows in Glasgow are the scariest but have the biggest

emotional pay off.

Your fantasy duet - who would that be with? - Im

a massively over the top fan of Pearl Jam so getting to

write a song with Eddie Vedder would be my fantasy duet.

I dont think theres anyone else who writes melodies

like him, or gets that much emotion out of a vocal

performance - he allows sounds so believable, even on

studio recordings. I would just love to get an insight into

how he goes about writing a song, so Id be happy if he

didnt even let me play on it in the end!

Do you remember a point where you felt youd

crossed a threshold into being a real band, thatd youd

arrived? - It was never an overnight thing with our band,

but I think the big turning point is when we started to seepeople show as much passion towards us in places other

than Scotland. We were very lucky that people in Scotland

took to us very fast, we just felt an instant connection

here. It took a lot longer for us to feel that in other

countries, its only been in the last 4 years that weve

really started to notice it. It feels good!

It seems there is a point at which a band need people

to hear their music more than pay for it, followed by a

later point where they need people to pay for it more

than hear it. Is that true and do you feel you lose out on

a lot of revenue through file sharing? Did home taping

kill music? - I think its a catch twenty-two because you

really need the internet and YouTube at the start of your

career as theres so many other bands out there forpeople to listen to. The internet is an incredible device to

be creative on, and to get that creativity out to potentially

the whole world. But were at a stage now where our

band is a full time job so we do have to make a living

out of it. We dont expect people to buy our music rather

than stream it, you just have to hope that you make

music thats good enough that people want to own it and

support it.

Best gig youve played to date and why?

- Our best gig is kind of an ever evolving answer, soits not necessarily our biggest gig thats the best at

this moment? For instance, we played a few festivals in

Germany a couple of weeks back and they were fantastic

shows - the crowds werent massive but there was a buzz

in the crowd that was so exciting. It felt like the cusp of

something that could get very big there, a feeling weve

had before a lot in the UK - but getting it that far from

home was really special. But, then we played Glastonbury

last week and it definitely felt like an equally special show

so its hard to sat what one was better! Sorry to sit on the

fence...

What was the smallest gig you ever played? - It was

actually in Inverness! We played Inverness in 2007 within

a few months of me joining the band at a place called

the Market Bar. If you know where Im talking about, then

youll know what Im talking about. Even then, we had

quite a silly amount of gear, so all our amps were stacked

on top of each other in the corner and Barry and Ross

were on a bench behind Sam. And there was about 3

people there but it felt busy.

Best act you ever supported? - Weve been really

lucky that weve got to play with a lot of our heroes over

the years, but weve been supporting Kings Of Leon this

summer and thats been amazing to be a part of. Theyre

such a cool band to watch, they play the songs so well

and his voice live is even better than on record. Its been

humbling to get an incite into touring at that stadium level,

they manage to do it in a way where they completely own

the crowd but it feels like it would be just as good in a

small venue as well.

You can WIN TICKETSto see Twin atlantic at Ironworks, andmore - see p26/7.

The Many Forms of Folk

MUSIC

Yes, theres Belladrum, but theres also a wealth of interesting music on show

this month, much of it exploring areas away from just heads-down rocknroll. One

of the most exhilarating is DUKE SPECIAL [1]who manages to involve himself

in projects as diverse as writing music for the Northern Irish version of Sesame

Street, composing for and appearing in Brecht plays and, along the way, making a

platinum selling album. Hes doing a short Highland tour taking in ULLAPOOL (02

AUG), IRONWORKS (03 AUG) and AVIEMORE OLD BRIDGE INN (04 AUG), and is

wholeheartedly recommended.

As is an enthralling sounding prospect called LOVE AND MURDER BALLADS [2]

at EDEN COURT on 17 AUG. A collaboration between legendary Scottish singer-

songwriter RAB NOAKESand acclaimed Gaelic songstress KATHLEEN MACINNES,

we can expect songs from Scots and Gaelic cultures such as The Two Sisters/

Minorie and An da fheannaig (The Twa Corbies) alongside Down in the Willow

Garden, Long Black Veil and Valley of Tears. A rare treat.

A rather more established collaboration is that between ALY BAIN & PHIL

CUNNINGHAM [3], but the music and laughs they make together continue to

delight. Their show at EDEN COURT on 30 AUG should be no exception.

Perhaps a little less familiar are THE JEREMIAHS [4]who play STRATHPEFFER

PAVILION on 19 AUG. Unfamiliar on these shores perhaps, but in their native

Dublin theyre being lauded as one of the most exciting new Irish Traditional

combos for quite some time. Perhaps theyll do for that genre what Lau are doing

for the Scots Gaelic version. Certainly worth checking out.

As is MARTIN ALVARADO [5] who plays EDEN COURT on 09 AUG. Widely

considered to be Argentinas finest tango singer, the Buenos Aires-born guitar-

playing troubadour comes to Inverness fresh from Edinburghs Fringe where hes

been wowing audiences. He is joined by an exceptional talent from Finland, Mikko

Helenius, a classically trained pianist and bandoneon player, who is, unsurprisingly,

proud of his ability to play both his instruments simultaneously.

Heads up too for THE STRAY BIRDS [6], coming to EDEN COURT on 06 SEP.

The Americana trio are selling records by the bucketload and headlined CelticConnections earlier this year. Theyre bound to be popular so get your tickets now.

More about them next month..

OUR29 TOPTIPSFestivals may come and festivals may go

(were talking about you, Rockness), but

ever since 2004, the BELLADRUM TARTAN

HEART FESTIVALon Joe Gibbs Belladrum

Estate near Beauly has been a fixture of the Highland summer.

And it goes from strength to strength, with BBC coverage (albeit on

the, erm, niche, BBC Alba), a welcome determination to set itself

apart from the nedfests of T In The Parket al and, most importantly,

a refreshingly eclectic line-up our top tips of which we highlight

here. Pull this 4-pager out and take it with you and check out as

many of these acts as you can, because they wont disappoint.

This years event, on 08 & 09 AUG looks like attracting a crowd

of attendees wholl never have been to such a thing before,as the Friday night is headlined by Mr Sexbomb, TOM JONES.

While his phwooar quotient doesnt seem to have receded

for ladies of a certain age, whats often forgotten is that he

actually has a rather splendid voice. And he was mates with

Elvis. Thats enough for us.
