Search - Colin Macintyre :: The Water

Colin MacIntyre, aka Mull Historical Society, the one-man-band songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer, has released 3 worldwide critically acclaimed albums under the `Mull Historical Society' pseudonym : Loss(2001), Us (2003) & This Is Hope(2004). So far Colin has achieved 4 UK Top 40 Chart hits and 2 Top 20 UK Chart albums. Colin has also been named Scotland's Top Creative Talent at the Glenfiddoch Spirit Of Scotland Awards. Colin has recently completed album 4: 'The Water', with Lemon Jelly's Nick Franglen producing. He will now be releasing and performing under his own name. This name change does not reflect any artistic changes. The Water is released Feb 2008. At the end of 2007 the London Evening Standard predicted that MacIntyre 'should prepare for greatness'. The Water is an inventive and warm and human collection of songs, a powerfully positive and celebratory album. "It feels a bit to me now like I felt before my first album 'Loss' came out - you just need the world to hear it," comments MacIntyre. This album sees MacIntyre put himself centre stage, and he seems all the better for it. A reinvigorated piece, his most accomplished yet, keen to put the world to rights without forgetting its roots, `The Water¹ is refreshingly cool and deep.
