about

This live recording was made at last year's Orkney Folk Festival when I was invited to get together a group of musicians to perform at "The Gathering", an annual event. It was a great honour for me to go back to a place I still regard as home and to perform with the cream of Orcadian musicians and some very good friends. We had a wonderful time, I hope you enjoy the fruits of our labours.

Massive thanks to Bob Gibbon and all at the Orkney Folk Festival (www.orkneyfolkfestival.com) and John Weatherby and Kris Koren of Sound Sense (soundsense.biz). Thanks to John Boocock for his logistical prowess and to Fiona Macdonald in the Edinburgh Office. Special thanks to all the guys/girls in the band, thank you for making it happen!
