Fromseier Rose, music "Popcorn Behavior"
Modern acoustic music for violin and piano, based in the Celtic tradition.
Fromseier Rose grew out of a late night session at the 2001 Copenhagen Irish Festival. Ditte launched into a lively version of Kitchen Girl and Michael joined in on the piano. It was the first time they played together and their chemistry was evident in the music. By the end of the tune it was obvious that they had to play together and a short while later they formed the duo Contradiction. To avoid too many similarities with a German thrash metal band with the same name, they have since changed their name to Fromseier Rose. Fromseier Rose play elegant roots music with a repertiore that combines their own compositions with contemporary and traditional Celtic and Scandinavia tunes. Their unique arrangements display a rich variety of musical sources. Ditte's full sound and rhythmic bounce is complemented by the swinging pulse from Michael's New England roots and his jazz influenced interpretations. The result is a swinging and playful conversation between two talented musicians that appeals to a broad range of audiences.Hometown: Copenhagen, Denmark Website: Fromseier Rose Download: "Popcorn Behavior" Buy CD: Contradiction

Hair of the Dog, music "Ghost Of The Molly Maguires"
Hair of the Dog is a five-piece band with celtic, bluegrass and folk influences. The guys have steadily built a huge following based on their hard-driving sound and the fact that they cater to audiences of all ages.
While adding lots of new bands to my directory I came back to Hair of the Dog and couldn't help but get sucked back into this fun live recording from their 2001 release. Great bluegrass version of this old miner song mixed with some fantastic harmonies. Yeah... this is what it's all about.Hometown: Delmar, NY Similar Artists: Seven Nations, The Saw Doctors, The Prodigals, Blackthorn, The Pogues and Black 47 Website: Hair of the Dog Download: "Ghost Of The Molly Maguires" Buy CD: The Parting Glass

Heather Dale, music "The Kingsword"
Heather Dale is Modern Celtic singer-songwriter, inspired by ancient legends and life. Her songs range from powerful Celtic folk-rock, to haunting ballads. Already well-known on MP3.com for her incredible vocals reminisecent of Loreena McKennit, Heather is back with a new album and a powerful new sound. A few months ago, she put together a Celtic rock group that did a wee bit o'touring. It's on a hiatus right now, but the songs I've heard from that album thusfar are wonderful like "The Kingsword".
King Arthur's sword Excalibur was once called the Sword in the Stone -- the sorceror Merlin had driven it into a boulder, and no one except the true King of Britain could remove it. This song tells the tale of Excalibur with a driving sound. Make sure you also drop by her website to read the stories. Heather is also an exquisite Arthurian storyteller in addition to her medieval lore and on and on. The woman is incredible!Hometown: Toronto, ON, Canada Influences: Loreena McKennit, The Corrs, Sarah McLachlan Website: Heather Dale Download: The Kingsword Buy CD: May Queen
