First single from new album announced
Wave Of The Flood Announces Debut Single "All Ends Will Come" – First in a Year-Long Celebration of the Art of the 45
Celebrating her 45th birthday with a bold artistic statement, Scottish singer-songwriter Lindsay Strachan, under musical moniker Wave Of The Flood, is marking a milestone year with a unique project: releasing of one single every month for a full year, beginning with her hauntingly intimate debut "All Ends Will Come", arriving Friday, 13 June.
Produced by contemporary folk legend Kris Drever, and recorded at the acclaimed Slate Room Studio by Garry Boyle, the upcoming album promises lush production anchored in raw lyrical honesty and intimate instrumentation. “All Ends Will Come” is a striking introduction—a meditation on mortality and the fragility of love, led by Strachan’s evocative voice and underscored by Drever’s distinctive guitar and production style.
Paying tribute to the tradition of the 45rpm vinyl single, Strachan’s year-long release cycle is a nod to both her own musical influences and the enduring power of the standalone song. Each release will offer a carefully crafted moment in time—an individual story, rich in emotional depth and exquisitely produced.
"I wanted to honour the uniqueness of the single—how an individual song can carry so much meaning," says Strachan. "Turning 45 felt like the perfect moment to celebrate the 45 in all its glory."
With strong contributions from John McDonald (double bass) and Cameron Henderson (fiddle), the single lures the listener into a richly layered soundscape that remains rooted in emotional honesty.
Wave Of The Flood’s music promises to resonate with fans of modern folk and singer-songwriter traditions, combining poetic storytelling with a timeless, acoustic aesthetic. Releasing one single each month, the full album will culminate in May 2026.
