The Teenage Fanclub Fanclub collective returns with a new tribute album, What They Do to Me Volume Three, celebrating the Scottish alt-rock band’s Post-Creation Years, on 4th July.
Following previous successes with compilation projects, the collective’s latest recording explores their heroes’ Lightships and Teenage Fanclub albums as well the band’s collaboration with American singer-guitarist Jad Fair.
In homage to Teenage Fanclub’s legacy and inspiration, the project includes individually recorded contributions from the Western Isles to Southern Britain and the Republic of Ireland and from Berlin and Gothenberg to Michigan and Athens in the USA and Argentina.
All tracks have been expertly mastered by Mark Rolfe at Winnetka Records and the album has been released with the blessing of Gerard Love, Norman Blake, Raymond McGinley and Jad Fair.
The album will be available exclusively on Bandcamp, with all proceeds going to the charity Tiny Changes.
Mark Rolfe said: “These songs mean so much to us. As Teenage Fanclub fans, we’ve always belonged to a secret society — one that truly appreciates the historical significance of such extraordinary songwriters as Blake, Love, and McGinley. We all feel a calling duty to examine and share that feeling.”
