Refugee
'Refugee' is a new compilation LP, due for release on Glasgow's Brainfog Records in the first week of July. As the title suggests, the aim of the album is to raise funds for the Migrant Offshore Aid Station Foundation (MOAS), an organisation that provides help to migrants escaping war-torn countries. MOAS has saved more than 13,000 lives in the Mediterranean Sea since 2013 . I'm delighted to note that several favourites of this parish (Alasdair Roberts, Richard Dawson, Bonnie Prince Billy) are among the artists who have donated an unreleased original song to this worthy endeavour, though the quality really doesn't dip throughout the entire album. Here are Kathryn Joseph and Linda Thompson with their sublime respective contributions to 'Refugee'.
