This is the second album from Back of the Moon, a young quartet fast becoming a force on the traditional music scene - all four musicians also sing solo and in harmony.

Traditional tunes and songs married with more contemporary accompaniments and sets. Gillian Frame plays fiddle and viola and sings, with guitars, flute, uillean pipes, border pipes, double bass and phucallé played by the boys in the band.

"Back of the Moon have built strongly on their debut album with this release." (The Scotsman)

"Frame's vigorous, full-toned fiddle is now assertively matched both by Simon McKerrell's fiery piping and Hamish Napier's buoyant, Cape Breton-influenced piano, while the songs' three and four-part harmony arrangements are shaping up as a trademark." (The Sunday Herald)
