Mairi Morrison & Alasdair Roberts

Urstan

Disc review

Hear ye, Hear ye. From the Scottish Highlands witness tales of ole and yarns from the past, sung in the ancient Gaelic tongue. New jack revivalist Alasdair Roberts pairs here with songstress Mairi Morrison to weave a new spin on old songs, enlightening now generations to a rich and diverse musical past. These are tunes of joy and of sadness. These are tunes of drink and life. Urstan (a celebration held at the birth of a new child) assembles a stellar cast of Glasgow’s finest players, adding spices of life to these emotional and rollicking Euro folk and country ditties.
