This month, PICTISH TRAIL is joined by LAURA for a chat about the upcoming tour - the logistics, the mild (and not-so-mild) anxieties, and whatever else manages to derail the conversation along the way - with music from this month’s PostMap Club selections woven in throughout. That includes new bits from BOTH HANDS, FAITH ELIOTT and MANUELA, all making appearances between the rambling.

There’s also a feature interview with ISA GORDON, who talks about the making of her new album 8 Men - reworking traditional songs and covers into something far more strange, textural and immersive.
