Andrew Wasylyk is the alias of Scottish writer, producer, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist, Andrew Mitchell.

2018 saw Andrew extended a residency invite from arts centre and historic house, Hospitalfield, Arbroath, Scotland to create new music for their restored, 19th century, Erard Grecian harp.

During his five-month sojourn he created melodies and progressions echoing the building’s unique relationship with the looming North Sea horizon. Using not only the harp, but the house’s original grand piano, Andrew explored the Angus landscape and beyond, gathering field recordings on trips to neighbouring Seaton Cliffs and Bell Rock Lighthouse (the world’s oldest surviving sea-washed lighthouse).

Winter slipped into spring, and harp-led compositions gave way to an ambitious third, full-length album, exploring a range of themes utilising a broad palette of instrumentation, including flugelhorn, euphonium, oboe, string trio, vintage synthesisers, drones and upright piano.

From the wandering, Bob James-esque, Fender Rhodes and shimmering strings in the study of coastal light, “(Welter) In The Haar”, to the plaintive brass and farewell transmission blowing through, “Adrift Below A Constellation”, punctuated by the fragility of Wasylyk’s sole lead vocal of this collection - “The Paralian” (a dweller by the sea). Through which, Wasylyk weaves the listener along a Modern-classical, Ambient and Jazz dream of Scotland’s east coast

Entry requirements: 14+
