John Millican Great and varied music from beginning to end. Thanks for sharing such talent đź’•

Master of Alchemy Misfortunes and tragedies, historical and personal, abound as the inspiration for Lauren's Haar. The gut-wrenching low notes and tones of the cello combined with the clear and bright harp on Natal is one of my highlights. There are moments of joy, too, with Lammas Fair and Roodadoo sweeping up the listener in an energetic dance. A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor. Even though at times the needle spins around the wind rose, the right direction is wherever one chooses to walk their own path. Favorite track: Natal.

Nickie Harte Kelly Mostly original with a traditional tune thrown in for good measure, Lauren MacColl plays fiddle and harmonium on these Celtic and Scottish flavoured airs. She’s ably supported by others on cello, piano, accordion, double bass, moog, acoustic guitars and harp. There is a strong scent of the seas and rugged coastlines in this music and it is just enchanting. Favorite track: Haar.

warren wigutow So far Haar is my clear favorite track!

Ok. Now that I’ve listened to all of it (Haar was the only available track when I wrote the above comment), to me it presents itself as a single multi faceted piece, an absolutely beautiful gem. Stunning. Congrats to Lauren and the amazing crew. Classic!
