Fresh from selling out the O2 Academy for his gig in December, we spoke to the brains behind Beluga Lagoon, Andrew O'Donnell, who creates atmospheric music inspired by his day job.
Beluga Lagoon isn't your normal Scottish band project, instead of seeking to create pop hits that top the charts, they are making their name thanks to connecting with a very different crowd.
Seeking to transport his listeners to Scotland's breathtaking glens and wild coasts, his music usually takes shape while he is away, thanks to always having a notepad and sound recorder out in the field, and though Scotland's landscapes provide the lion's share of the inspiration, he adds that his travels abroad also add to the tapestry of his sound.
"Music is something I've done since I was five or six years old thanks to my dad, I've always loved it but never thought you could make money from it." He added: "I genuinely never planned on doing gigs it just came about from people wanting it, I did a gig in Aviemore Osprey Arena and it just sold out right away – 1,200 tickets.
