Quinie | Forefowk, Mind Me | Album

Forefowk, Mind Me is the third studio album by Glasgow-based artist Quinie (Josie Vallely), released on May 23, 2025. The album is an experimental folk record exploring Scottish Traveller songs and themes of ancestry, place, and tradition. The album is based on a research project and artistic pilgrimage where Vallely travelled on horseback through the Argyll region of Western Scotland to collect traditional songs. The resulting music features traditional songs sung in the Scots language, incorporating field recordings and the input of an ensemble of musicians on instruments like viola, double bass, bouzouki, and pipes.
