Lots of their trademark exquisite female harmonies, backed by a nice assembly of acoustic instruments (fiddles, flutes, guitars, bass, accordion, drum, & kantele (a Finnish zither-like instrument). Oh yeah, the singers are now a trio rather than a quartet. *1. Slow & stately a capella. *2. Sweet and mid-tempo. 3. Starts mid-tempo, gets faster & bigger. *4. Fast percussion/vocals. A frantic kind of feel. 5. Slow, old-fashioned folk melody. Pretty. *6. Crazy fast w/great work from the band. Fun. 7. Starts slow, gets more energy. Sort of dark. *8. A catchy a capella down/mid tempo tune. 9. Nice instrumental. Starts fast, changes tempo. 10. Slow start, tempo changes w/a warm, melodic feel 11. Gentle strings and rich vocals. Lovely. *12. Dramatic down/mid tempo a capella track. 4/2003 | ||
