Hollywood star Kevin McKidd producing charity album with Scots musiciansThe actor is part of the Speyside Sessions group producing an album of Scottish folk music. A Hollywood actor has teamed up with Scots musicians to record a charity album of folk music. Kevin McKidd, from Elgin, has joined forces with musicians in the north-east to form the Speyside Sessions collective. What began as a casual folk music session with friends and family has become a major project to release an album which will raise funds for the Save the Children charity. Gathering at Hogmanay, the musicians recorded the album in less than a week, with the help of producer Nick Lloyd-Webber - son of Andrew Lloyd-Webber - and sound engineer Bryan Tolland, known from Scots band Del Amitri. A post on the Speyside Sessions Facebook page reads: "In less than a week 29 tracks were recorded with a huge variety and mix of performers, from local budding musicians, phenomenal singers who'd never before recorded their voice and even jaded folkies whom until this session, thought they'd hung up their mandolins for good. "The joy, magic and spontaneity of this week has been captured forever on a soon-to-be released album for charity." The album is expected to be released in June. Douglas Hamilton, Save the Children’s head of Scotland, said: "We’re delighted that Kevin McKidd has chosen to raise funds for Save the Children through the sale of the upcoming Speyside Sessions album. "Kevin has been a supporter of Save the Children for a number of years and we are extremely grateful for the work he does for us. "We look forward to hearing the album when it is released in June." McKidd was brought up in Elgin and was a member of the Moray Youth Theatre, before he went on to study engineering at the University of Edinburgh. It was while at university, and after joining the student theatre company, Bedlam Theatre, that he decided to make the move into acting full-time. He stars as Dr Owen Hunt in hit US series Grey's Anatomy and has added his voice to the upcoming Disney/Pixar animation Brave, set in the Scottish Highlands. news.stv.tv/scotland/north/301123-greys-anatomy-star-kevin-mckidd-producing-charity-album/

Former Del Amitri band member Bryan Tolland reveals excitement at new L'Acoustica projectApr 5 2012 By Brian McIver A SCOTS musician who hit the big time with Del Amitri is behind two ambitious new musical projects which are set to take Scotland by storm over the next few months. Glasgow based Bryan Tolland was one of the founder members of the hit Scots rock band but walked away from the group to concentrate on his own music projects, including a career as a music therapist for special needs patients. But the busy guitarist, producer and songwriter is getting ready for one of his busiest ever years with a new band while he has also helped actor Kevin McKidd record a new folk music album which is due out later this year. Bryan, 48, helped the Grey’s Anatomy and Brave star record his upcoming album The Speyside Sessions, which was recorded in McKidd’s home town of Elgin last Christmas, with a group of performers from all over Scotland contributing to the charity record. Bryan co-produced and also played on the record, and while that album is due out in the summer, Bryan has teamed up with twin Glasgow singers to form a new folk and soul group, L’Acoustica, who are performing and recording in Glasgow. The trio, consisting of Bryan and twins Noel and Carl Bridgeman, are releasing a new album in the summer, A Cure for Serpents, and Bryan said he was enjoying one of the busiest years of his career. “As a musician, you want to be busy and working with interesting people doing interesting things,” he said. “L’Acoustica is all about entertainment and The Speyside Sessions is a mix of entertainment and charity because it’s all for Save the Children, so they are great projects to be involved with.“I’m really excited about L’Acoustica, Carl and Noel should both be huge stars by now as they are very talented, and we have had a lot of good feedback so far. “We have the album coming out in the summer with more gigs to come.” For more information, check out the band’s website www.lacoustica.com.
