Debut album from Corran Raa

The band’s biography from their website (http://corranraa.co.uk)…

A Scottish band, heavily influenced by the traditional music that has flowed across the North, Atlantic and Irish Seas. Moving melodies, lush harmonies, soulful vocals and inventive accompaniment.

Formed on a normally uninhabited Hebridean island, Corran Raa have a passionate interest in their native music. Originating from the length of the country, from Shetland to London, their intertwined musical paths eventually converged on Taransay in 2005. The inspiration of those all night, midsummer, musical sessions led the band to take its name from a landmark of the islands stunning coastline. Their self-titled debut album holds a feast of new compositions, and a taste of traditional song, conveyed with warmth and lyricism.
