Feel (the present tense of felt) is a new group made up of original Felt members Gary Ainge (who played drums on all ten albums), Marco Thomas on bass and Philip King on rhythm guitar. Along with Martin Davies on keys and Andy Wellings on lead guitar, they will be honouring the beauty of Felt’s music – by playing instrumental Felt songs – and Felt songs instrumentally.

As it says so accurately on the Felt album sleeves – the songs were “coloured in by the band” – and that’s what they intend to do. As well as showcasing the melodic ingenuity of Maurice Deebank and Martin Duffy, they will also be performing instrumental interpretations of some of the songs of Lawrence.

Radhika is a Scottish dreampop group fronted by singer /guitarist Radhika Meera Dade a pop artist of Indian heritage from Glasgow. She has collaborated on stage with artists including Jill Bryson (Strawberry Switchblade), Mitch Mitchell (The Pastels), Gerry Love (Teenage Fanclub/Lightships) and more recently Stuart Murdoch (Belle & Sebastian), James Kirk (Orange Juice) and original members of the group Felt.

2026 saw Radhika release a debut album on the Glass Modern label. Cine-Pop is a collection of songs that spans generations and continents but its home is always Radhika and the family jams she made with her father Sushil K. Dade (Future Pilot AKA). In different moments other musicians appear – most notably key collaborator, Eric Macdonald, on hazy synth and keys, and Radhika’s mother Vinita, who has a gorgeous voice too. The Glasgow School is very present – Mitch Mitchell (The Pastels) , Gerard Love (Lightships/ ex-Teenage Fanclub) and Tracyanne Campbell (Camera Obscura) all bring their casual magic to the table.

“I think there’s something really special in what Radhika does. Influences and inspirations whirl around and are fine-tuned into really good songs.”
