Read the Reviews"This is what the music's all about for me, spirited performances from everyone involved and an obvious
joy at working together for that ultimate goal."

"There was an outstanding set by Claire Mann and Aaron Jones. They often played at great pace but always with feeling and sensitivity. Mann is equally accomplished on flute or fiddle, creating a rich sound on both instruments, while Jones is a passionate bouzouki player. "Billy Taylor" was at the heart of the set highlighting Jones' vocal skills too.
