This is the first recorded collaboration between Gaelic tenor Paul McCallum and Margaret Mackinnon (composer) though they have been working together for over 20 years. Paul has a beautiful voice and the Gaelic songs here are new compositions with lyrics supplied by bards from the islands of Tiree, Lewis and Harris.
When they were asked to produce a CD, it was put to them that there is a great dearth of new Gaidhlig songs, so they decided that they should put this right and this CD is the result.
Many of the songs have never been heard before as Margaret composed them solely for Paul. Special thanks to the bards for their lyrics: Niall M Brownlie (Tiree), William Angus Mathieson (Lewis), John Angus Macleod (Harris). With Sarah Naylor on fiddle.
