Wisemon Something about this energetic traditional Scottish folk music just makes me feel like I'm going to go on an adventure to some distant, virgin landscape. Wish they got together and made more music, what a way to brighten my day! Favorite track: Slumberland's.

about

In November 2015 a group of musicians gathered on Islay to play a special memorial concert at the Islay Sessions festival, thus laying the groundwork for this album. In January 2016 at Celtic Connections this same group of musicians, “The Islay Sessioners” as they called themselves, performed this music as part of Islay Night, a concert that both celebrated the music and culture of Islay, and the tunes of Fraser Shaw.
