As he works on a much-anticipated follow-up, Johnny has decided to revisit the family of songs that made up Island Family once again, and present “reduxes” of three of them in brand new, stripped-back form, recorded together with a specially assembled trio of musicians: Semay Wu on cello, Gillian Fleetwood on harp, and long-time collaborator Susan Bear on keys\/bass. The resulting EP, Follow Footsteps, is released on limited-edition 12” vinyl in a gold-foil print sleeve, via Lost Map Records.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy putting the wild, untamed euphoric-bucolic psychedelia of ‘Island Family’, ‘Melody Something’ and ‘Nuclear Sunflower Swamp’ through a softer filter – complimented by a pair of short incidental instrumentals in ‘Follow Footsteps’ and ‘Flowers Rising Into The Black’ – Pictish Trail has discovered delicately kaleidoscopic new resonance in the songs. He credits it with “revitalising” his whole approach to music making.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lost Map Records","offers":[{"title":"Black 12\"","offer_id":50507268948299,"sku":"2210081","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Follow_Footsteps_EP_37fd218c_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727845145","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/follow-footsteps-ep","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
