After winning the 2016 Scottish Album of the Year award for her debut Varmints, Meredith’s latest release FIBS is a bright crossover of pop and orchestral tropes. Featuring synthesisers, electric guitar, cello, timpani, tuba and wooden xylophone, Meredith sings and plays numerous instruments on the album – occasionally smashing a cymbal or giving her audience a sudden rush of rich, energetic symphonies.    

Meredith composed the music for the International Festival’s 2018 opening spectacle Five Telegrams, where a crowd of thousands gathered to watch rainbow visuals projected onto the façade of the Usher Hall. The classical composer and avant-pop artist then performed a totally different but equally colourful live set the following week at Leith Theatre alongside the Southbank Sinfonia.
