Winner of 'Best Acoustic' at the Scottish Alternative Music Awards 2011:-

Paisley singer-songwriter Alan McKim unleashes his first EP via Telescopic Baby on April 16th, 2011. Alan is a bloody and passionate performer. His sound and demeanour is dark and intense but the music, with its driving bass lines and cascading chorus', remains irrepressibly catchy and will charm the most innocent of cherubs to the hardiest of souls alike. Al...an possesses a refreshing back-to-basics and gritty approach ideal for these austere times whilst succeeding to keep his sound wholly new and fit to fill city stadiums.



"I'll eat my own shoes if you don't hear these songs blaring out your wireless in months to come." - Chris Rodger, GlasgowMusic.co.uk



"So intense was his set that you feared for his guitar." - BluesBunny.com



Recorded at London's Livingston Studios, under the tutelage of established producer and songwriter Ken Rose (Warners, EMI and Giorgio Moroder Music) and his recently launched Telescopic Baby project. As much a collective as it is a label, the Telescopic idea is to key into the development and nurturing of young talent ensuring each artist maintains full artistic freedom whilst reaching their full potential. It made perfect sense following a meeting last year, that the Telescopic founder volunteered his vast experience in the creation of Alan's new EP; which is the next chapter of a story gaining rapid momentum.
