Irish-American fiddler Caroll & Irish guitarist Doyle team up for some solidly lively Celtic music. Doyle adds vocals on a few tracks plus plays mandolin and bouzouki. Both are expert musicians and they bring a fresh, contemporary take to traditionally-based music. Every track is worth a star. This is wonderful modern Celtic music.

1. Fast & energetic set of two dances, trad w/a modern kick.
2. Two jigs, the first w/a nice drama, the second happy & light.
3. Doyle sings on upbeat story song of a strike. So cool!
4. Sweet lament followed by two upbeat reels.
5. Beautiful song of nostalgia w/a large dose of sadness. Sigh…
6. Two mid/upbeat dances, one about Bolinas, CA.
7. Two sweet ballads w/a warm, old-fashioned air.
8. Upbeat set of total toe-tappers. Yee haw!
9. A strong & catchy jig set with lots of energy.
10. Midtempo vocal lament followed by a jig.
11. Slow at first, picks up two mid/upbeat dances.
12. Three folk dances, mid/upbeat w/sweet melodies.
13. Upbeat set of three, reels w/a modern energy & sound.
