The Story
"This album, Dancing the Line, is my first solo album of music played on an alternatively-tuned alto fiddle. I find that the resonance and growl of this lower-tuned instrument sits me perfectly into the sound-world I want to be in, free to nestle into the traditional music I grew up with and to compose away"
Musicians: Ultan O’Brien - alto fiddle, electronics
Nic Gareiss - percussive dance (tracks 3,5,7,8,9,11,13)
Martin Green - accordion (tracks 4,10,11)
The record features field recordings of Whitestrand near Miltown Malbay (tracks 4,12,13,1) and voice recordings of Edwina Guckian (track 14)
