Biography

‘Every label needs a vegan Scotsman, so we went out and nabbed the very best: Billy Liar. The wee lad is known as a punk troubadour who has covered a LOT of ground in Europe and America with his acoustic guitar, but on Billy's debut album, "Some Legacy", our hero is backed by a loud rock band. Imagine a horde of rowdy punks led by a very, very small version of William Wallace with big songs about friendship, despair, tolerance, love, anxiety, and life in Edinburgh. It's an 11-song uplifting battle cry that will rally all the clans!’ 
 ‘Jangly, acoustic-meets-electric punk ripper that should appeal to fans of anything from The Menzingers to Frank Turner to classic ‘70s punk.’ 
 Brooklyn Vegan 
 'Upon first listen, it's easy to classify "Some Legacy" as a damn good album. But after spinning it a few times, it becomes way more than just "damn good." It's hard not to notice the immediate presence of such raw emotion... combining his earlier material with uninhibited punk rock reminiscent of Against Me! or The Clash.' 
 Punk News - 9/10 
 'Hits you like a brick...it's most definitely punk running through this young man's veins! A storming debut.' 
 Louder Than War - 4/5 
 '"Some Legacy" is an appropriately titled album as that's exactly what this near perfect eleven track album is.' 
 The Punk Site - 9/10
