A solo navigator through the reveries of sonic joy, Glasgow’s Future Pilot AKA is one Sushil K Dade: he’s worked with Philip Glass, Damo Suzuki and Mikey Dread; and he’s just unveiled a congenial masterpiece in Secrets From The Clockhouse (Creeping Bent). A Celtic Mela of meditative instrumentals, primal bossa-nova, poetry folk and blissed-out devotionals, its stars include B&S’ Stuart Murdoch, Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore and the Fire Engines’ Davy Henderson.
Future Pilot AKA perform as official 'sound carriers' for Damo Suzuki on Wednesday 25th April at Glasgow's Tramway opening for Einsturzende Neubauten.

Future Pilot AKA perform in a one-off Triptych collaboration with Found on Friday 27th April at Edinburgh's Bongo Club.
