Northern Cross

Minimize
Our first CD, "Northern Cross" is now available.

The CD comprises 14 instrumental tracks, which are representative of our repertoire.  The tunes come from three continents and four centuries, ranging from 17th Century Playford to modern tunes written by our own Steve Hodgskiss, Simon Heywood, and even a forró from Brazil.

Reels, jigs, polkas, hornpipes and waltzes are all represented and are sure to set your feet tapping.  And if you'd like to get up a set, the tracks are all arranged at appropriate lengths and speeds for dancing to.

The CD is available via our Bandcamp site for £10.00 including postage and packing (within the UK). Digital downloads are also available from Bandcamp and other retailers including CDBaby, iTunes and Amazon.

Reviews for "Northern Cross"

Some very splendid tunes
  Johnny Adams ‘Rolling Round the Ryburn’ Phoenix FM

A very entertaining CD; it has the variety to make it a real pleasure to listen to. Well worth adding to your collection
  Shreds & Patches

Grabs you by the ears in no uncertain way… a glorious sound.
The tracks are beautifully contrasted throughout. Different rhythms, different instrumentation – there is so much variety in this CD that you won’t get tired of playing it
