Kyle Carey “The Art Of Forgetting” (Americelta Records, 2017

March 14, 2018 Jeremy Searle 0
The third album is famously the difficult hurdle to jump, with many artists resorting to re-treads or losing their way. It is however a hurdle that Gaelic Americana purveyor Kyle Carey vaults with such ease she […]

Bird in the Belly “The Crowing” (GFM Records, 2018)

March 13, 2018 Jonathan Aird 0
Folk music, the gathering threads of tradition, is forever being renewed – it needs reshaping as much as reverence if it’s to be inculcated into new generations of singers and musicians. And at any one time […]
