Scottish band The Zephyrs release their 6th album, "For Sapphire Needle", in January 2023, their first in 13 years. Singles Leatherback and Blue in the Face precede the release. Alongside a further two EPs and a single this discography continues in their psychedelic, shoegazing folk-rock style. The Zephyrs’ first album, "It's Not OK To Day Anything" (1999), was released by a tiny label from Edinburgh and limited to 700 copies. In 2000, their friends from Mogwai signed them to their Rock Action roster of bands from Glasgow. It took Southpaw in 2001 to issue their LP, "When The Sky Comes Down It Comes Down On Your Head", an appropriately fateful title; not because of the songs, which revealed a majestic orchestral rock and recalled This Mortal Coil, Bedhead or Low, but because Southpaw declared bankruptcy one week after it was released. Spanish label Acuarela released the bands next two albums ("A Year To The Day" licensed from Setanta, and the fourth "Bright Yellow Flowers on a Dark Double Bed", exclusive and available worldwide, in 2003 and 2005 respectively), they played festivals such as Primavera Sound and FIB, toured Spain and Portugal, and found a unique sound: a blend of their influences (intimate pop and country, noise-pop) which resulted in a perfect mix of Simon & Garfunkel and Mogwai, Mojave 3 and Auburn Lull. Fool of Regrets, their fifth album, was released by Club AC30 in 2010 with the Acuarela single The Witches and the Crown Prince of Lies appearing in 2018.
