Reid has had the opportunity to tour with Joel Mason and his Elton John tribute show, as well as Johnny Thunder (formerly of The Drifters), Eddie Holman, and more.Brad’s versatility of styles and instruments continues to open many doors for him, and led to the recent release of his first traditional Cape Breton fiddle album, “The Conundrum”, on which he recorded both the fiddle and guitar.

Find free Celtic music downloads from Marc Gunn! Review: "When Humans Walked The Earth" by Mason BrownThe interesting Celto-Appalachian style is really well done here on "When Humans Walked The Earth". The two musical styles compliment each other so readily that it seems fairly natural that people would want to blend them. Even so, not all do it with the ease that is seen here. Brown mixes sounds seamlessly and makes you feel like there was no other way it could have been done. That takes considerable skill, and I was really impressed with his arrangements here, as well as the skill of the musicians. "The Cuckoo" was by far my favorite song of the bunch, but I have a feeling that this is a CD where everyone will hear it a little differently. There are both traditional and original songs featured throughout--some short--some long. The track listing makes sense and adds to the ebb and flow of the album as well. Accompaniment is always easy and seems to be effortless, although this effect is really not possible without considerable ability. This is not a CD that you need to concentrate on to enjoy; simply sit back and let the music wash over you. Catherine L. Tully is a freelance writer and photographer who specializes in the arts.

Find free Celtic music downloads from Marc Gunn! Review: "The Day After The Night Before" by Dust RhinosThis CD has all the Celtic rock energy you need to go all night long feeling good about life. It has the push and raucous style of punk music without the anarchy--a really great combination! The five-piece band from Canada is no new kid on the block and it shows here in their tight stylings and unbounded energy. Somehow they still manage to show off their considerable talent on the instruments while barreling down the road full-steam with song after song. Funny without being slapstick silly, these guys know how to bring just the right touch to each song they craft. Don't miss songs like track 4, "Sally Brown" and track 11, "Step It Out Mary" which help show that the band is as versatile as they are talented. If you are looking for a CD that you can get excited about, this would be one that I would recommend checking out. The right blend of fun, skill, music and energy, Dust Rhinos are immensely listenable. I look forward to the next one--and even if it was just more of the same--I'd be satisfied. Catherine L.

If your answer is a big, hearty "yes," then Don's your man! I really enjoyed the unusual blending of style and feeling on this CD. Both the west and Ireland are represented here and it is quite unlike anything I've heard before. Fresh and distinct, Gabbert's mix works quite nicely. You'll find familiar tunes here such as "Yellow Rose of Texas" and "Danny Boy," but don't think you can figure out how they'll be presented before you have a listen. My personal favorite is "Somewhere in Kildare," which is a good tune to highlight as an example of this entire CD's style. I loved Gabbert's voice--totally country. It reminds me of something you'd hear on a jukebox in a fun bar out somewhere in the west. Of course, the Irish songs and sound would be a bit out of the ordinary in that setting. Still, that is kind of what this entire album is about really. After all, why not stay true to yourself, right? Fans of easy country style will love this CD, but those who have a strong Irish streak will favor it as well. A really unexpected treat. Catherine L.
