An interview with...Embassy (Part 1) by
Embassy are a band from Falkirk who have a real passion and charisma when it comes to creating music and playing live. The five piece include Alasdair Marwick on vocals, James McManus on lead guitar, Aidan Buhrmann on rhythm guitar, Callum Barret on bass and Ian Simpson on the drums. A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting up with James and Aidan to talk a little about themselves, what they think of other local bands and their opinions on the Glasgow Music Scene! Check part 1 out here!

Interview Spotlight Article with Embassy by Will J by
Embassy are one of the front line Platoons in the fight for local music scenes in areas where it has been either non-existent, or so sparse that it has never really took off. They have been turning this around in Falkirk and bringing live music to some grateful crowds around town, expanding out to Edinburgh and Glasgow. Bringing back a classic vibe that’s reminiscent of a scene which Falkirk did see many moons ago such as Mike Maran who rose to fame way back in the 60’s and 70’s and now owns a production company dealing mainly in theatre. He rose to fame spectacularly in the 60's, was more difficult to get hold of than Mick Jagger, denounced normality for being mad, opened safe houses where schizophrenics could voyage safely through their madness, retreated to India to meditate, and disappeared with the 70's. His re-emergence as a producer came much later after spending many years abroad. He was the stuff of legend and inspired a lot of bands, though most never really went anywhere further than a few local gigs before disbanding. There was also another genius composer and violinist virtuoso, Evelyn Margaret Dewar who was set for world class stardom when an unfortunate set of events left her practicing at home alone. Nicola Benedetti is a major name in this field nowadays, and back in 30’s Evelyn was in that class. Many people refuse to believe anyone famous came out of Falkirk, but there have been some very rare gems. We shall see where there this modern gem shines as Embassy take on the challenge of building up the Falkirk music scene. They deliver some great tunes and have managed to attain a really amazing following online and locally, so with all their previous effort, and a shed load more, they may well establish themselves as the band that made Falkirk famous! Check out their links and give a like and share to help them get there because they truly deserve the appreciation for what they are trying to do. Here, I was able to catch up with all of Embassy for a collaboration interview. Read on to see what they had to say...
