Production details
Michael Marra - To Dundonians, he's the troubadour poet who has sculpted from the rhythms and accents of their city a songbook so comprehensive it should be required listening for anyone venturing over the Tay Bridge. To football fans he's the author of Hamish the Goalie, an ode in song to Hamish McAlpine, the legendary Dundee United stopper. And to connoisseurs of Scottish music he shares best kept secret status with people like Bert Jansch and Davy Graham. Saltfishforty - Douglas Montgomery (fiddle/viola) and Brian Cromarty (guitar/mandola/vocals) combine the traditional music of Orkney with original compositions; they released their debut album, Goose Music, to critical acclaim in May 2003. Their second album, Orkney Twister, was released in December 2005. Their reputation as a fresh and dynamic live act has seen them established on the Scottish festival scene, and taken them to festivals in Europe, America and Canada.
