Tide Lines are a four piece band whose roots run all across the Highlands and Islands of Scotland down to the West End and South Side of Glasgow. Formed in 2016, the group blends traditional Celtic melodies with contemporary influences, creating anthemic tracks that inspire a deep connection to Scotland’s cultural heritage. Their music is characterised by powerful vocals, poetic lyrics, and a unique combination of guitar, keyboards, drums, and rhythm that captivates audiences worldwide.
Tide Lines have now announced that their fourth studio album, ‘Glasgow Love Story’, will be released on April 25th, 2025 via their own Tide Lines Music label. The record will add to the band’s continuing ascent, with highlights so far including Official success for 2023’s ‘An Ocean Full of Islands’ (#13 in the UK, #1 in Scotland and #2 on Independent Albums), extensive Radio 2 support, and three consecutive sold-out nights at Glasgow’s Barrowland Ballroom.
The album is a lyrical series of glimpses into fictional lives and stories - each of them taking place simultaneously in the vibrant city that Tide Lines have come to call home. Some members have returned to rural parts of the country since the early days of the band’s formation, but they are constantly drawn back to Glasgow. This personal love affair with city inspired the album: it reflects their very own ‘Glasgow Love Story
Their authenticity, passion, and drive to connect deeply with their audiences have made them a must-see act, and their appearance at HebCelt 2025 is highly anticipated as one of the festival’s headline performances.
