Scottish rock band Idlewild came to prominence with a sound that very much obeyed the conventions of 1990s British indie-punk guitar music, but which was nevertheless difficult to pigeonhole. 

Later albums introduced elements of both art rock and folk rock to their classic sound, always underpinned by lead singer Roddy Woomble’s poetic lyrics and consummate gift for melody.
