Archive Trails
In January 2011, three bold stravaigers – Alasdair Roberts, Aileen Campbell, and Drew Wright – set forth upon a twelve-week commissioning residency in The School of Scottish Studies Archives at The University of Edinburgh.
This site tracks their progress as they listen to tapes, sift through photos, conduct their own fieldwork and begin to develop new performances from their findings.

Tour begins
The piece that Shane Connolly and I have created for Archive Trails is now as ready as it will ever be, and the tour begins tomorrow in Perth. Last night we staged a trial run-through for a small group of friends and we’ve spent today putting the finishing touches to the piece. I am looking forward to the tour as an opportunity for us to visit some parts of Scotland which are not at all familiar to me, and to revisit some with which I am well acquainted. It will be interesting to see how all of the new work develops night by night, as I’m certain it will. Long hours on the road, no matter where that road may be, are an ideal opportunity for me to think about future projects - in this case, new song work, taking notes for new lyrics and all. My notepad is ready. I anticipate that we’ll see some inspiring sights along the way, and also meet a lot of interesting folks. Perhaps you’ll be one of them.
