Beo

supported by 7 fans who also own “The Plains of Boyle / The Belharbour (Hornpipes)”
Absolutely sensational - love the generally low-end tones and planxty-esque set up, but most of all the incredible energy of it! Wish more instrumental trad was like this, love the fact that it's recorded live too.

Solid Ground

Fans of tenor banjo who scour the digital bins of BC will inevitably come across the same few albums as the other banjo-heads out there. It's like a shared journey that will become a literary trope in the dystopian trans-human future where we read search histories as though they're archeological relics of the past. I would like to take this moment to say hello to my fellow Banjocamp mariners. This album is awesome, and it magically sounds different every time you listen to it. 🪕~~*🐇* Magic! 😮

Absolutely love that deep concertina sound. And the range of expression that Cormac brings out through this instrument, well beyond the intentions of the designers or makers of these instruments. And, feel sorry for his poor bellows and reeds. He has to do a lot of personal repair on them. Cormac's album design and presentation are beautiful works of art as well. See him in concert if you can. You can really feel those bass notes resonate through a hall.
