RM Hubbert (or Hubby as we prefer to call him), is a longtime friend of the label and a guitarist of quite prodigious talent. A founding member of an earlier Chemikal Underground favourite, El Hombre Trajeado, his debut solo album ‘First & Last’ was practically on constant rotation in our office earlier last year. With ‘First & Last’ being self-released by Hubby, it was inevitable we’d get chatting to him about our releasing it further afield and pressing up a limited run of vinyl. Hubby was in agreement and the relationship was sealed over a Greggs eclair if we’re not mistaken.
Hubby’s technical prowess, combined with the intimacy of his shows has secured his reputation as an unmissable live performer – a fact not lost on the likes of Mogwai and Godspeed You! Black Emperor who have invited Hubby to support them on tour. You can catch Hubby over October and November when he tours with Bill Wells & Aidan Moffat.
RM Hubbert’s follow up to ‘First & Last’ is now completed and features collaborations with Alasdair Roberts, Aidan Moffat and Emma Pollock. Entitled ‘Thirteen Lost & Found’ it’s scheduled for release in January 2012.
