Since Yesterday is a revealing, hilarious and at times enraging documentary tracking the history of Scottish pop from the 1960s to the present via the visionary women who so often have been brushed out of that history.You’ll hear from artists like The McKinleys, the Edinburgh sisters who opened for The Beatles and were the first girl band to play Wembley, Glasgow’s 80s pop duo Strawberry Switchblade (whose biggest hit gave the film its title), and TheHedrons, the noughties rock band who have a delightful story about pissing off Mick Jagger, to name but a handful…
Narrated by award-winning musician Carla J. Easton, a former member of the girl band Teen Canteen,Since Yesterdaytakes a critical look at the barriers women have faced making music in the past, and still face today. It asks how we can inspire young women to make music, if those who do so are continuously erased from our cultural history.
Dir: Blair Young, Carla J Easton (2024)
“Since Yesterday is a celebration of music, a celebration of women, and a fist-raising call for change. It’s an inspiring piece of filmmaking that demands to be seen by everyone, not just lovers of a good music documentary.” Snackmag
“Depending on your vintage, this gorgeous film may stir memories of ballsy punk trio The Ettes, or the sublime soul of Sunset Gun, or the grrrrl riot of Lungleg. (Filmmakers) Carla J Easton & Blair Young have captured these thrilling tales of DIY gigs and handbag roadies, TV appearances and stadium shows, scuppered opportunities and squandered potential.”The Scotsman
