Harem Scarem - Birnam Witch Project

For a musical nightcap blended from some of the sweetest, grooviest and most vivacious folk-based sounds to be found on the Fringe, check out this witching hour gig by up-and-coming Scottish five-piece Harem Scarem. Their Line-up - on fiddles, flutes, accordian, guitar and vocals - hails variously from Orkney, Shetland, the west Highlands and Ireland, while their repertoire casts it's net further, taking in Scandinavian, French, Cape Breton, Balkan and Asturian tunes as well as Scottish and Irish material. The band features Ross MArtin, Eilidh Shaw, Sarah McFadyen, Nuala Kennedy, Inge Thompson & Rick Taylor. Vertical Records. 2005.
