I made a 2nd album in two short bursts with a large gap of almost a year in between.

Bedding Tune / Un-named Shetland Reel -trad.

Many of the tunes are from times long since past and have stories attached. For instance - 'Da Day Dawn' is a fiddle tune from my home in Shetland used to welcome in the Yule morning, it is said to be one of the oldest tunes in the Shetland Fiddle Tradition.

'Doon Da Rooth' is a Shetland tune set to the innerworkings of spinning wheel whilst it is working raw fleece into yarn.

'Bedding Tune' is a version of a tune I came to find under the name 'Greig's Pipes' used for a ceremony during the consummation of a new marriage.

Other tunes are my own - 'Broonies Taing' is the place where my family spend most summers on a great beach with a long shallow ebb, plenty of caves, geos and an amazing blowhole.

'Dice' tune was composed with the aid of dice to help relieve writers block and introduce more play into the composition process.

All the tracks were recorded and produced at home by myself and with the help of some very close collaborators. Make sure to check out their own work too.

I absolutely loved this gig live which is why I bought the record. What an album! The crossovers are epic, and totally representative of my experience of living in Glasgow as a musical city. I haven't heard too many collabs between the folk and jazz scenes here, but the ones I've seen are so alive and playful. This music makes me think of stumbling on a full blown pros jam session in a pub somewhere in Glasgow because of its energy, but the arrangements are feckin awesome! Laura-Beth Salter
