2. Celtic
Music Band Feature
Visit the artist's homepage by
clicking the link above Ed Miller
is a product of the great folk revival of the 1960's. He
perfroms songs of
Scotland new and old and has an amazing
repetoire, not to mention he is an
amazing performer. I was
fortunate to see him once again the Texas Scottish
Festival
performing with fiddler John Taylor, including several songs by
legendary Scottish songwriter Brian McNeill, who helped produce
Ed's
latest album, "Many's The Fine Tale". One
of the more beautiful and memorable traditional Scottish
songs from the album
is "The Band O'Shearers". No, it's not a
song about sheep. This
is one of many, usually happy, songs
associated with the harvest in northeast
Scotland, when men and
women worked together in the fields, the men shearing
the crop
with scythes and the women stacking it.
The
latest release featuring all of Clannad's best songs on two CDs.
The music
ranges from traditional Celtic to folk to their modern New
Age Celtic sound
that's made them famous. Three decades of material
that includes a 43-page
full-color booklet filled with pictures,
notes on the band and discography.
4. Celtic
Music Band Feature
Visit the artist's homepage by
clicking the link above When I first
heard Tale/Theo Niessink, I was really uncertain what
this was all about.
Theo Niessink a.k.a. Tale is a singer/songwriter
from The Netherlands. His
music originates from a number of
different styles, among them folk rock,
Americana, Irish folk and
blues. The songs he writes are very lyrics oriented,
and the music
is often used to emphasize both the story and the character
of the
songs. But it wasn't until I got his album that I really fell in love
the
music. Now his album "Sweet Lady of Flowers" is one of my
favorite. So what's
so different about Tale? Well, vocally you can really hear
his influences,
including bands like Shan MacGowan, The
Dubliners, and Bob Dylan. Dylan is
really who I think about the
most when listening to him. "The Day We
Set Sale" is a wonderful
Celtic folk song that shines Tale's Dylan-esque
sound while still
highlighting the great storytelling of the seafaring tradition,
but this
time with the whales winning the fight.
