Album Notes & Community Reviews

Kenny Anderson crafts an incredibly beautiful, deeply moving conceptual soundtrack to a documentary composed entirely of archival Scottish film footage. 'From Scotland With Love' pairs his remarkably delicate, acoustic fingerpicking and deeply emotive vocal performances with sweeping, wonderfully lush string arrangements and choral backing. The album is a profoundly sentimental, highly cinematic, and incredibly heartfelt celebration of Scottish history.
