A track which takes its inspiration from a March morning at Sandwood Bay, North West Sutherland in the Highlands of Scotland. The bay is the remotest and most beautiful beach in Scotland with a dark and unusual history.
Duncan Chisholm is one of the most accomplished and authentic interpreters of traditional Highland fiddle music to emerge in years. His music is elegant, trancelike and tender, laced with strokes of genius. The correlation between music and the natural world lies at the heart of what Duncan Chisholm does. Since the release of his seminal album ‘Redpoint’ almost 20 years ago, the natural elements that make the Highlands of Scotland such a unique canvas have been the force and motivation behind his music. His use of melody comes from the tradition within the Highlands of telling stories and painting visual pictures through music. In this world there are very few who match Duncan Chisholm.
