James Yorkston and The Athletes burst onto the scene with Moving Up Country, a debut release on the celebrated Domino label that helped establish Yorkston as a distinctive voice in alternative and folk-influenced rock. Recorded across multiple intimate Scottish locations — including Cavers Knowes Farmhouse in Hawick and Upper G in Edinburgh — the album carries an authenticity and sense of place that feels deeply rooted in its origins.
Moving Up Country is a richly textured listening experience, highlighted by the inclusion of a traditional ballad among its tracks, nodding to Yorkston's appreciation for folk heritage woven into a contemporary sound. Now available on vinyl, this release offers fans and newcomers alike the chance to experience this beloved album in a warm, full format befitting its carefully crafted recordings.
