Projects: The Kilmarnock Collection (2018)

Strand Street, Kilmarnock

A collection of traditional music from the town that gave the world Johnnie Walker whisky and Robert Burns’ first edition of poetry.

The Kilmarnock Collection cover

15 years in the making, John’s first major published edition is the Kilmarnock Collection with cover by award winning Scottish artist Eòghann MacColl.

The book contains 164 compositions, based around life, both in Kilmarnock, and it’s outstretched connections throughout the world. The idea was to capture the humanity, the sights, smells, characters, streets and establishments that is the Kilmarnock we know - a snapshot of a moment in time.
