"Transparency" by The Strange Woods

Not only have The Strange Wood established themselves as a veteran folk quartet that is well-versed in traditional Celtic music, but they also provide a wide variety of original folk in a Celtic-Fusion style. They have quite a distinguished repertoire of original songs as well as Celtic instrumentation, mostly consisting of themes dealing with love, romance and the transcendent. Each song is woven with the timeless magic of Celtic jigs, reels, hornpipes and airs. In the end, it provides a musical and lyrical journey across the spirit and landscapes of nature.

The group is anchored by songwriter and vocalist Jim Hinton on guitar and mandocello. Theresa Rochelle-Ross adds her distinctive vocals along with her accomplished work on tin whistle, Celtic harp, and percussion. Rachel Amov adds a Gypsy flair on violin and viola. Pat Espinoza also sings and fills out the sound on keyboards, guitar, bodhran, didgeridoo.

With two albums already having been released as well as songwriter Jim Hinton having produced two solo albums of original and traditional songs, they have established themselves in the Celtic music world, always eager to reach new ears.
