The 10th release from this all-female Celtic ensemble, here joined by (female) guests including Karen Matheson, Sharon Shannon, and Kate Rusby. Wonderful flutes, whistles, and strings and some lovely, heartbreaking vocals as well. Strongly traditional, but with lots of feeling and wonderful technique.
1. Bright & happy set of three reels. Instrumental.
*2. Slow, sad love song w/sweet, crystal-clear vocals.. Tissue?
*3. Set of dances. Mostly midtempo. Instrumentals, good stuff.
4. Slow w/soft, breathy vocals. Gentle, lovely, melancholy.
*5. Medley of 4 dances, starts mid, picks up. Yee haw!
6. Sweet & nostalgic instrumental showcase for whistle.
*7. Bright midtempo song about…uh…the plague. A cool sound.
*8. Slow & sad w/three women trading lead vocals. Georgeous.
9. Solid, toe-tapping set of dances. Fun & happy things.
10. Another slow sad vocal track, this about leaving Ireland. Lovely.
11. Four bright & lively reels. Pour the whiskey & dance.
