Tales from Across the Water
by Griselda Sanderson
Gris Sanderson's recordings are always special and unique. We've collaborated a lot and I've always been amazed and pleasantly surprised by the new directions she takes in the music.

Sorpesoll
by Ånon Egeland and Mikael Marin
This is just gorgeous music, moody, dark and hypnotic arrangements of Hardanger fiddle and viola both tuned down an octave. It gives me shivers every time, but it's also deeply calming.

Solo bass concertina, epic! Great rhythm, drive and sensitivity with amazing and at times percussive use of the "breath" from the bellows. I love the unique voice of this instrument altogether.

Beo

Absolutely sensational - love the generally low-end tones and planxty-esque set up, but most of all the incredible energy of it! Wish more instrumental trad was like this, love the fact that it's recorded live too.

Class playing by everyone, it's hard to find trad music that's so well arranged without sounding 'too new.' I'd put this album up with any of the old classics. Also, as a bouzouki player, it's nice to hear the instrument so high in the mix, especially when it's played so skillfully.

“Buile” uses an electronic backdrop to explore songs old and new from the Celtic tradition.
