"However grim things may look you can still triumph. And despite the image we're not all junkies and scroungers." ——————————————————————————————————2/7—— Pen pal fun 147All the goss 143 CHECK OUT THE CHARTS p485

It's been a long, hard slog for the band fronted by Sylvia Rae, who comes from a family of jazz musicians and spent years singing in pub bands. "It can get depressing especially when youWre working so hard and youWre stillbroke, but I never thought of doing anything else — it's in my blood." ——————————————————————————————————4/7—— All the Goss 143Music review 144 BEAT THE BAMBOOZLER p152

"It's shocking that Shirley Manson hasn't been nominated for one of the Brits Awards," rants fellow Edinburgh singer Sylvia Rae of The Lanterns. "In fact there aren't any artists from Scotland at all in the Brits. "It'll be different next year, oh aye! We'll be up there then for sure.
