| 释义 |
}} Little Sparta is a British band which was formed in the early 2000s by Alan D. Boyd and named after the garden of the artist Ian Hamilton Finlay. Over a number of years the band changed personnel as they developed their sound. The current line-up is Alan D. Boyd on guitar, Scott Skinner on drums and Susie Honeyman on violin. Their first recordings were released on Fire Records and were collaborations with Scottish poet Gerry Mitchell. Many of these recordings received critical acclaim from the likes of Pitchfork[1] and Drowned in Sound.[2] Later recordings were released on the Grey Gallery label, which was started by Susie Honeyman. Little Sparta has performed their own score live to Lotte Reiniger's 1926 film The Adventures of Prince Achmed at the Edinburgh Festival, and written music to accompany Allan Pollok-Morris's photographic exhibition Close: A Journey in Scotland which toured the Chicago Botanic Garden and the United States Botanic Garden in Washington in 2011 and the New York Botanical Garden in 2012.
