Flower and Iron

by Malinky

If you like your folk music to have lots of traditional songs you will definitely enjoy hearing Malinky's latest album Flower and Iron. Their arrangements of both traditional and contemporary material is both fresh and interesting.
5-piece band Malinky is one of Scotland’s finest groups and the line-up currently comprises: Fiona Hunter (vocals and cello) Steve Byrne (vocals, bouzouki, cittern and guitar); Mark Dunlop (vocals, whistles and bodhran); Mike Vass (fiddle) and Dave Wood (guitar and bouzouki). Ranked among today’s foremost young exponents of Scottish song, Malinky, with three excellent singers, combine an array of vocal talent with a highly distinctive instrumental palette.

One of the most imaginative of Scots-language bands
Title: One of the most imaginative of Scots-language bands
Source: Scotland on Sunday
Review: The opening sung dialogue, to a charming original tune, contrasts Steve Byrne and Fiona Hunter (two of the band's five singers) in the old northeast favourite 'Pad The Road' and sets the varied tone of the latest incarnation of one of the most imaginative of Scots-language bands. They are fine instrumentalists all, and eschew vocals in the lilting 'Cows And Cottongrass' and the cello-driven waltz 'Ruaraidh Mor'. Mark Dunlop mixes metaphor and Irish myth in contemporary (well, 1960s) song, adding another dimension to a lovely album...Norman Chalmers
