Heepirumbo

by Eilidh Shaw

The talented Eilidh Shaw waited a while to make this , her first album to bear her own name: and it's a cracker. The album title Heepirumbo is a modern interpretation of an old vocal phrase, perhaps from waulking songs or mouth music and the modernising theme could equally be said of her treatment of the tunes on this CD. She has called on jazz musicians, pianist Brian Kellock and bassist Ronnie Rae, and there's the guitar work of Tony McManus and Ian Carr as well as Llan du Cubel's star fiddler Simon Bradley. A particular delight on this laid back CD is the arrangement and playing of Charlie MacKerron's tune, The 70th Year.
 

Media Reviews

judging from her capability to adjust to so many different styles, this diversity seems to place Eilidh Shaw, and her debut album among the best.

Review: Eilidh Shaw's debut fiddle album virtually shouts at you to listen, succeeding with its bold and colourful front cover, and the intriguing title "Heepirumbo". And if this title , it has been tastefully updated. For on her debut, this is what Eilidh Shaw has done; taken many elements of the Scottish fiddle tradition- some old tunes, and some new tunes, and installed them safely in a contemporary context. The confidence and individuality portrayed by the sleeve cover continues in the album content, but with more subtlety and style, in tracks such as "Liz Carrol's" where Eilidh Shaw makes these hornpipes-come-strathspeys float effortlessly on the fiddle, above the superb guitar genius of Ian Carr, who also produced the album........ ..........extract from a review in The Living Tradition magazine by Frances Morton
