MP3: "Celtic Rainbow" by The Gothard Sisters
 Greta, Willow, and Solana, three young musicians who make up The Gothard Sisters, have been playing fiddle since they were five years old. Originally classically trained on violin, they made the switch to fiddle and began to mesh that sound with their classical training. What emerged was a unique sound that is all their own. Their songs are deep, amazing stories that take the listener on journeys to America, and through struggles and trials. They encapture the audience with their sound. Their latest CD, "Celtic Rainbow" features the intricuate sound of fiddle harmonies, the sweet, uplifting voice of Solana, and unique arrangements of popular songs. They have a never-ending supply of new ideas and they aren't affraid to take risks. This is what makes these sisters the great musicians that they are.

Together, their instruments and songs put together a magical and evocative performance.

Review: "Beer Belly" by Paddy's Boots
There is great collection of tunes here--and plenty of them to listen to as well. If you are in the mood for a rousing reel or jig, Paddy's Boots does indeed deliver. Sprightly sounds spring forth from the instruments as the music is called forth from the skilled hands of the musicians. There are no amateurs here! Beautifully played, the songs on this CD feature a good mix of Irish dance music that is a pleasure to listen to. Need to get motivated for something? This is a good album to put on!
Beer Belly delivers right out of the gate with the first track--a well-played reel. From there the CD continues to move through different songs and arrangements featuring different traditional sounds and instruments. There is nothing too offbeat here, so the album is best-suited to those who favor traditional stylings. Nothing wrong with that. The musicians here draw from a wide variety of different musical backgrounds including folk, jazz and classical, so here and there a bit may pop through, but Celtic music lovers will feel right at home with this CD on. It stays the course.
