Scottish singer Megan Airlie unveils the quarrelsome visuals for new track "Honey"

Following on from her startling debut "After River", Megan Airlie is back with another beautiful new track.
"Honey" once again makes Airlie's timeless and unique voice the standout on a bluesy, pastoral number about being out of step with the other person in the relationship.
Trills of piano give the track a lighter, woozier feel than "After River" but still Airlie's (fast becoming trademark) miserablist outlook darkens the corners. A video clip, above, adds in a troubling domestic scene for another layer of gloomy intrigue.
One of the most exciting voices to come out of Scotland in a long time, Megan Airlie is one to watch.
"Honey" is out now on Bloc Music Records.
