King Creosote ProfileSeptember’s Scottish referendum seeks an answer to the seemingly simple question, ‘Should Scotland be an independent country?’ The unashamedly patriotic tone of King Creosote’s soundtrack to the film From Scotland With Love answers this question with a resounding ‘Yes’.
The prolific singer-songwriter deals a collection of tunes that tell heart-warming stories gathered through the casual observation of his compatriots lives. The camera pulls into frame homesick immigrants, the working-class, children playing in the school yard, a lonely wife waiting for her husband and flag-waving patriots. Nostalgic and bittersweet, home is obviously where this heart is.
