'Huntress/The Warmth & The Weight' Out Now!

“Flew The Arrow fills the room with warm timbres of his acoustic guitar and a soft voice that bristles just lightly with an Ayrshire twang, crafting earnest narratives of love and loss from romantic landscapes, who’s imagery weaves through each song like a subtle and haunting poem. His presence cuts a friendly, laid back intimacy, introducing each song with genuine enthusiasm.”

The flight of the Arrow..

'Flew The Arrow is the inner workings of acoustic guitarist and Folk singer Lee McGilvray, hailing from the West coast of Scotland in the small town of Ayr, and residing in Glasgow where he grows his reputation as an original Songwriter and Performer. Lee independently released his debut EP “If You’d Only Care To Listen” in 2016 and since has made his mark performing at festivals around the central belt, whilst honing his craft and building his
network of listeners in the city.


Having signed to 23rd Precinct Music Publishing in 2018, Flew The Arrow began 2019 performing for the Celtic Connections Hazy Recollections and Danny Kyle stages, followed by a signing to Electric Honey Records, which gave birth to his Double A-Side Single release in March (Come The Wind, Come The Rain/Trail Of Thought). This was but the very start of a full EP released in December ’19 titled ‘Trossach’.

 

Lee is set to release his next Double A-Side singles on vinyl record, titled ‘Huntress/The Warmth & The Weight’, out on 25/11/22, as he begins a new chapter in the flight of the Arrow and expands his sound on record and on stage with a quartet accompaniment creating a soundscape of Cello (Sarah McWhinney), Fiddle (Ross Hull) and Flute (Caitlin MacKenzie) that truly bring his songs to life, giving insight into the direction of his song-craft and touching on influence from traditional sounds.'

Here tells the story of the huntress...

‘Huntress’ tells the story of a young boy in an ancient village in the Scottish highlands who grows up hearing tales and stories of the Huntress and warnings to never enter her forest lest he be hunted down as prey. As the boy grows to be a man he begins hearing the Huntress’ voice singing songs in his dreams till he is compelled to leave home and wander to the end of the great valley of lochs where her deep, dark forest dwells. It is there he climbs atop the tallest tree in search of her till he spies her resting upon the fell. It is at that moment she clocks him. As the hunt begins and before he knows it, he’s racing through the forest with arrows in flight shooting past his head, and with the closeness of death, time slows down to that very moment where the Huntress succeeds, and just as she is about to strike on her prey, the man stops her in her tracks and confesses his conquest of love and that he came in search of her upon hearing her song of birds and drum in his sleep which beckoned him. Alas the Huntress replies that she is the elemental of the forest and is bound to it as its protector till the end of days and could only wish for a mortal life where she could love another and discover what lies beyond her realm of the deep, dark forest. The man is spared and makes it home with a broken heart, though he continues to listen for her songs in his sleep in hope that they would unite in another life and another time when the Huntress’ spell could be broken and true love could be found.’

The changing seasons and vibrant nature surrounding us has always been a pure source of inspiration and perspective in my life and is something I’ve always been drawn towards in my writing, as many a muso has. These songs are a collection of ones old and new, woven together as a melodic and lyrical journey through the ever-changing seasons, from the birth of spring time to the dead of winter, which seeks to find the heads and hearts of true listeners and share solace in finding the beauty around us in a disconnected world.

The title ‘Trossach’ is lent from the encapsulating mountains and forest area that surround us just north of Glasgow which I regularly gaze upon from the top of Queens Park in Southside, and reminds me of the perplexing weight of the world and the deep beauty of nature around us, in turn, easing my mind from the calamity of city living and opening the doors for inspiration.
