Review
Anam deliver Celtic folk music in the best tradition of De Dannan and Patrick Street, in-your-face and with strong tunes, great vocals, and punchy ensemble instrumentals. The title track, a set of reels, rips the album open with its spirit and drive. They deliver some lightweight folk-rock (complete with kit drums and bass) and some sweet ballads that feature the waiflike voice of Aimée Leonard. The basic quartet plays acoustic guitar, bodhran, button accordion, mandolin, and bouzouki, with two vocalists. Guests include a rhythm section here and there, some great harmonica from the inimitable Rory McLeod, low whistle (Rory Campbell), and fiddle (John Martin). A fine album from a band with a lot of promise. --Louis Gibson
