@SMALLKERRYMAN Yep! she's too much in the fore front, almost as if she's the leading one.

These kids from Boston are trying, so give them a break. It doesn't have the Cape Breton rhythm and their not up to the quality that one hears on the island. But they seem like they're having fun...

@SMALLKERRYMAN The piano can sound too loud and aggressive if you normally play or hear Irish traditional music. But in Cape Breton, the busy, rolling piano is part of the style which is distinctive to the area. (Takes some getting used to I'll admit, and I personally don't care for it that much.)

Shame the guitar was so poorly miked.

This music is awesome! Cape Bretoners keep this music alive ! Some Cape Breton fiddlers actually have gone back to Scotland to teach this music to Scots. Oh and by the way ,the piano drives this style of music. Just sayin' .

Woah way too much piano hehe. A problem often encountered in folk music. Could be a mixer problem though

@bravygravy i agree -too bad cause woulda been sweet if the piano could have been pulled back a bit

Maybe it's not the piano player but how it was mixed on the board.

The piano is too overbearing and aggresive. She's not subtle or enpowering. a ggod accompaniment should be in the background, supporting, lifting and filling-in not competing with the melody for font stage and volume. After playing in trad sessions for 20 years its a "lesson Numero Uno" in Traditiional music.
