A (relatively) in-depth analysis of Scottish chamber-pop project The Bathers in just under twenty minutes.Referred to as 'the best-kept secret in Scottish music' The Bathers is the creative vehicle for singer-songwriter Chris Thomson. Initially active between 1985 and 2001 and reformed in 2016. In 2020, Lagoon Blues, Sunpowder and Kelvingrove Baby were reissued by Marina Records on limited edition vinyl.Chamber-pop or Baroque-pop is the fusion of pop music with elements of classical music exemplified in the mid 1960s by songs such as In My Life by The Beatles.
