| Bard Amergyn with Kiva - Songs of Mysts and Moon (CD) | |
 |
A new KIVA collaboration project with magical musician Amergyn. KIVA plays and sings on nearly every song on the album. Amergyn's deep strong voice balances well with Ariana's and KIVA's sound takes his wonderful songs to new heights. Amergyn's songs take you to a magical glen dancing with Pan or walking the straight paths of faerie in the Georgia mountains or dreaming of dragons and silver moon maidens in the mist. Just under 50 minutes of music! A 'must buy' for Amergyn and KIVA fans alike! (An interesting note: Anne McCaffrey made a play from the book 'Dragon's Song' and used Amergyn's 'Dragon Song' in the play!) Tracks: Dragon Song, Pan's Dance, Samhain Flight, Legacy, Sun Child, Dancers of Arun, Silver Lady of the Moon, We Remember. |

| Emerald Rose - Archives of Ages to Come (CD) | |
 |
This CD has been about two years in the creation, and is really our second full-length studio CD ('Bending Tradition' being our first, in 2000). Our intent was to focus on original songs, pulling in mythic themes and a variety of moods. We find that each song has its own life and its own speed of development, no matter what we may WANT to happen 'Dagger of the Moon' has been evolving since before 1998, and 'Three More Drops' since 2001, while 'For Blodeuwedd' came together in less than a week, and 'We Come From Monkeys' in about three months. We feel that Emerald Rose is changing its style from a Celtic folk style into more of an 'art rock' sound with Celtic roots. Listeners may find this compilation to be a bit more in line with groups like Great Big Sea, and you may hear some classic rock influences from Jethro Tull to ZZ Top here and there. We`ve had several instrumentation changes in the last couple of years as well: Logan has introduced the mandola in more tracks and experimented on guitar with 'Nashville' and other tunings, Larry has been developing on low whistle and Uilleann pipes, and we`re using more percussion based around the Roland HandSonic, often with a more of a 'drumkit' rock feel. In 2004, when we had the good fortune to play for the 'Return of the King' Oscars party in Hollywood, we felt it was important to have a new promotional CD for that event. We made a mad scramble to put together what new songs we had developed, along with some 'classics' from previous albums, and the result was 'Songs for the Night Sky' (2004). The response from fans was tremendous, and helped to reassure us that we were on the right track. This was intended from the start to be a limited release, and we always knew these songs (Urania Sings, Come To The Dance, Gwydion`s Song, and Take Me Down) would appear on a full-length CD. The versions here have been remixed, enhanced, and professionally mastered. Finally, we`ve included three songs drawn from Celtic tradition: Andy M. Stewart`s 'Queen of Argyll' (one of our favorites from the Silly Wizard days), 'Irish Heartbeat' from Van Morrison and the Chieftains, and an adaptation of an old folk song 'Wheel of Fortune' with some Tarot-inspired lyrics from Arthur. The development of a CD is a roller-coaster ride, with moments of sheer delight, periods of screaming frustration, and long hours of grueling, carpal-tunnel-destructive work. We hope the end result is worth it! -EMERALD ROSE, August 2005 |

Red Haired Mary - a traditional ballad transformed to modern pop; 6. Pagan Girl - pure pagan pop; 7. Come by the Hills - a beautiful traditional Irish ballad; 8. Johnny Cope - a rousing Scottish fighting song; 9. Merry Mayfolk - an upbeat May song with a universal message; 10. Castle of Arianrhod - mysterious delving into Welsh myth & legend; 11. Freya, Shakti - praise for the Goddess in her many forms; 12. Unfinished Business - jazz jam with bozouki & whistle; 13. Hills of America - an anthem of the Celtic diaspora. It is the bands desire to help keep the Celtic musical heritage alive and carry it on into the future. With music like this, the longevity of Celtic music is assured! |

| Gordon, David and Steve - Drum Cargo (CD) | |
 |
DRUM CARGO - RHYTHMS OF FIRE is an album of pure, unadulterated drumming; the kind that sends a bolt of energy down your spine and fills you with the desire to move. David & Steve Gordon are masters of their craft, having become synonymous with quality rhythmic percussion music from their top-notch bestsellers like SACRED EARTH DRUMS and DRUM MEDICINE. DRUM CARGO picks up the groove where those efforts left off, featuring raw, multi-layered tribal drumming mixed with occasional flute calls and didgeridoo. This album differs from the pair`s past efforts in the purity of the percussion - the music is much more focused on the invigorating sound of multiple drums played in dynamic ensembles than lush atmospheres. Throw in a wide range of drums from all corners of the world and the skills of fellow drum explorers Kim Atkinson and Bobby Cochran and you have the recipe for a rhythmic tour-de-force. |
