The variety and quality of Old Blind Dogs latest album pretty much demanded I write about each track…it has reignited an evangelical flame; Knucklehead Circus is an album that can change lives.
Edinburgh Tradfest’s new Spotlight season kicks off with four new online video concerts including Old Blind Dogs, Siobhan Miller, Catriona MacDonald, Margaret Robertson and Malin.
With roots in Aberdeen and the unusual combination of piano and fiddle, Clype have released a stunning debut album of politically engaged songs, with a unique sound drawing from folk and jazz.
We have a track premiere to share from Clype’s eponymous debut album which is truly inspirational. We also speak to Simon Gall about his influences and how the work of Edward Said inspired this track.
Clype is an exciting new duo comprised of pianist and singer-songwriter Simon Gall of Salsa Celtica and fidler Jonny Hardie of Old Blind Dogs. Listen to Now My Home, our chosen Song of the Day which also features the low whistle of Ross Ainslie.
