Sharon Shannon & Galvin, McGoldrick, Murray- Tunes (2005)

“Tunes” is an album from Sharon Shannon, Frankie Gavin, fiddler and leader of seminal trad band, De Dannan, Mike McGoldrick, flautist and member of Capercaillie and Flook and who fronts his own band Fused, and one-man rhythm section guitarist, Jim Murray. The material on this new album is exactly as the title suggests – a collection of tunes ranging from traditional Irish to traditional Asturian tunes with some newly composed Scottish tunes and newly composed tunes by each of this talented quartet thrown in for good measure. “Tunes” was recorded during December 04 and January 05 in Galway and not only reflects the individual style and virtuosity of each of the musicians, but also introduces us to the powerhouse of energy and creativity generated by them collectively....
