The Trews didn’t set out to make an acoustic record, nor did it come about by accident.

Those who know the band a little will know them as an electrifying and electrified rock band; those who know them well know their acoustic side, long a staple in the live set but less heard on album. Friends and Total Strangers is the result of a recording that demanded to exhibit other colours of The Trews’ broad artistic palette.
John-Angus illustrates: “’The Pearl’ and ‘Montebello Park’ from our second
record were given brand-new treatments. Those songs, for whatever reason, never
became staples in our electric set and they speak volumes in the acoustic set. There's
also one or two songs that were never recorded but have been around for a couple of
years: ‘Locked Doors’ and ‘How's Everything’. And there was the brand new stuff like
‘Sing Your Heart Out’ and ‘Happy Day’ in ‘Yearning’ that were written for the show or
around that time."
