Roddy Frame
Roddy Frame (born 29 January 1964) is a Scottish singer-songwriter and musician. He was the founder of the 1980s new wave band Aztec Camera and has undertaken a solo career since the group's dissolution. In November 2013, journalist Brian Donaldson described Frame as: "Aztec Camera wunderkind-turned-elder statesman of intelligent, melodic, wistful Scotpop." Since the end of the Aztec Camera project, Frame has released four solo albums, the last of which is 2014's ''Seven Dials''. Early life Frame grew up in East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire, Scotland. Frame was surrounded by music from a very young age, as his older sisters were music fans and listened to a great number of artists, such as The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. He started to learn guitar playing at a very early age. During his early years playing guitar, Frame frequently listened to Wilko Johnson and was able to play many of Johnson's songs as a result. As a child and adolescent, Frame was inspired by a var ...

Surf (Roddy Frame Album)
''Surf'' is the second solo album by Scottish singer–songwriter Roddy Frame, first released in the UK on 5 August 2002 via Redemption Records, and in the US on 8 October 2002 via Cooking Vinyl. ''Surf'' is notable in that every song on the album was recorded in Roddy Frame's "own front room". Critical reception ''Surf'' received generally positive reviews upon release. Burhan Wazir, writing for ''The Observer'', likened the album to Steve Earle's '' Train a Comin''', declaring it "wonderfully understated", and noting a distinct departure from Frame's previous material; "There are few signatures here that have come to mark the work of Roddy Frame, the Pride of East Kilbride, with his previous band Aztec Camera. That said, ''Surf'' is one of his best records since 1987's breakthrough, ''Love''. It's a break-up album and the sparse acoustic songs lend Frame a maturity he previously struggled to express." '' Q'' magazine's Jon Horsley also noted the difference in sound between ...
