About The Big Now
The Big Now were a Scottish band active around 1989. Their demo cassette Fast Cars, Soul Music preserves melodic, guitar-led songs such as “Fast Cars, Soul Music” and “You’ll Be Sorry”, making them a fitting first Artist Spotlight for Sundown Sessions and a reminder of the overlooked local music histories the show aims to surface.
