On my show last week, I played Shapeshifter - Twin Galaxies, Brooke Fraser - Something in The Water, Kirsten Morrell - I Fly Away, and Italian musician Giuseppe Festa with his band Lingalad - Toni il Matto.
I learned a little lesson, having not really listened to Brookes music when she was hyped by the mass media, I knew she was talented but the hype puts me off. This song reinforces how talented she is.
Giuseppe is and his band Lingalad are a group of guys I met when I was invited to a Lord Of The Rings fan convention in Toronto. Great guys and fantastic to watch as they play flutes and traditional instruments.
Kirsten Morrell is sublime always, with her band Golden Horse or on her solo voyage.
Shapeshifter are just damn stunning, always have been always will be!
Enjoy!
