Glaswegian folk band Tide Lines look towards their first UK Top 10 LP with third album An Ocean Full of Islands (6), while the late, great Eva Cassidy’s estate teams up with the London Symphony Orchestra and Australian-British composer Christopher Willis for I Can Only Be Me (7).

Edinburgh-born singer-songwriter Steve Mason is heading for his fourth UK Top 40 album with Brothers and Sisters (30), acclaimed movie score composer Hans Zimmer’s Live follows as another potential new entry (36) and progressive rock band Haken, hailing from London, could score their first-ever Top 40 entry with seventh album Fauna (39).
