James Yorkston and The Athletes was the name used by Scottish folk musician James Yorkston when recording a number of albums with a number of friends and associates between 2002 and 2006.
Back in August 2022, during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, James Yorkston played a gig at Summerhall featuring two notable but very different guest musicians.
BIT nervy, muttered Fife folk songwriter James Yorkston near the beginning of a show which was also the first of a tour to accompany his new record, The Route to the Harmonium. Still, this one doesn’t have any words, so I should be okay…
The venue offered a superb atmosphere for this folk-fusion delight: with large carousel-style seating and ceilings draped in bright fuchsia and turquoise it was an enchanting intimate setting.
