fROOTS-UK “This recording is a credit to the versatility of the pipes and
the musicianship of four top-notch artists” – Sing Out magazine-USA
Recorded in Roag on the Isle of Skye
at Skye Records, the album is an energetic mix of traditional material together
with tunes from some of the best pipe tune composers of today, many of which
have never been previously recorded. Pipedown are Lee Moore (Highland pipes and
smallpipes), Steve Reid (Acoustic Guitar), Axel Campbell (Mandolins) and Steve
Fivey (Percussion).
What they said about ‘The First Measure’
“The
thing that makes Pipedown fun to listen to is the relentless invention of the
arrangements.” – Dirty Linen-USA “Apparently there are some that claim not to
like the sound of pipe music. Maybes they listen to the wrong CDs? Maybes they
should listen to this one?”
The Living Tradition-Scotland. “A syncopated
backline with attitude and lots of high octane sets of tunes from Bulgaria,
Brittany and the British isles keep the feet tapping all the way.”
"The
quartet does a splendid job of blending traditional pipe and fiddle music with
backbeats, syncopations and great string arrangements. It’s a great sound; and,
if you thought you didn’t like pipe music, or the usual pipe repertoire, check
this out." Songlines UK
