One of my biggest inspirations - Mike Vass, and in particular this album, Decemberwell. This album pushed me to write my own tunes and made me re-evaluate what 'folk music' can be.

One of my many influences as a guitar player. Ian's unique approach to accompaniment, tune writing, and arrangement has inspired me to no end.

Great Scottish band! The addition of guests like Duncan Chisholm-fiddler extraordinaire- and Julie Fowlis-an authentic voice of Scotland- make it perfect.

Dystopia was my introduction to Talisk when the live version of it was out on youtube. Between the energy and life not just by the music itself, but the people playing it being so engrained into the songs themselves, Talisk has become a foot-stomper, and an absolute jam of a band to put on full volume.
