The
idea of Skalded transpired as a result of Andy & Phil playing an acoustic
set at a friend’s wedding. While already recognised as an accomplished fiddle
player and composer, Andy had thoughts about writing music to traditional
Orkney poems, the results of which can be heard here amongst the ever-popular
instrumental tracks. Phil plays a variety of instruments and sings the majority
of the songs. In days gone by, local poets were referred to as Skalds which
inspired the album title.
