}} The Burns Unit was an eight-piece Scottish-Canadian folk music supergroup. The band formed in 2006, after the musicians met at Burnsong, a Scottish songwriting retreat.[1] The band members come from varying musical genres including folk, pop and rap, and all have either acclaimed solo careers or are also members of other bands.[2][3] The band had its debut concert in 2009 in Glasgow, Scotland, at the Celtic Connections music festival. In 2010, they released their debut album, Side Show.[4] They continued to perform gigs and at festivals during 2011-2012, then amicably split, with members continuing their own respective careers. In 2012, King Creosote noted that he is working on a collaborative album with bandmate Michael Johnston, stating: "I have a half completed album lying in Toronto with my friend Michael Johnston from the Burns Unit".[5] The album, The Bound of the Red Deer, was finally released in May 2016 - just a few months before King Creosote also released a new solo album. The duo's album features contributions from former bandmates Karine Polwart and Emma Pollock as well as American musician and producer Gurf Morlix.[6] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.theburnsunitband.com/band/ |title=The Burns Unit | Emma Pollock | Future Pilot AKA | Karine Polwart | King Creosote | Kim Edgar | Mattie Foulds | Michael Johnston | MC Soom T |publisher=Theburnsunitband.com |date= |accessdate=2011-01-30}} {{King Creosote}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Burns Unit}}2. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/music/reviews/62rj |title=Music - Review of The Burns Unit - Side Show |publisher=BBC |date= |accessdate=2011-01-30}} 3. ^{{cite news|author=Edd McCracken |url=http://www.heraldscotland.com/arts-ents/music-features/the-burns-unit-1.1078726 |title=The Burns Unit - Herald Scotland | Arts & Ents | Music Features |publisher=Herald Scotland |date=2011-01-09 |accessdate=2011-01-30}} 4. ^{{cite news|author=Robin Denselow |url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2010/jul/29/the-burns-unit-side-show-cd-review |title=The Burns Unit: Side Show | CD review | Music |publisher=The Guardian |date= 2010-07-29|accessdate=2011-01-30 |location=London}} 5. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.timeoutshanghai.com/features/Music-Music_features/8162/Interview-King-Creosote.html|title=Interview: King Creosote - Web extra Q&A with the Scottish folk artist and Fence Collective leader|author=Jake Newby|publisher=Time Out Shanghai|date=2012-10-01}} 6. ^http://www.kc-mj.band/the-bound-of-the-red-deer/ 4 : Scottish folk musicians|Canadian folk musicians|Musical groups established in 2006|Musical groups disestablished in 2012 |
