Prydein's Discography |
From Seven Days reviewer, Paul Gibson; "Okay, who put the jalapenos in the haggis? That would be Prydein, Burlington's foremost "kilt-rock" quartet formed by ex-Whisky Before Breakfast members, piper Iain Mac Harg and guitarist Aron Garceau. This is a fun, original and well-played record... the recording was crisply produced by Garceau and Joe Egan at Eclipse, with considerable help from the versatile Aaron Flinn. Prydein blend their originals seamlessly with traditional tunes and, while most of the disc is instrumental, Garceau lends his warm and effective voice to several tracks. Mac Harg handles most of the melodies here and his impeccable playing is at the core of the band's sound. I especially liked Garceau's "Baertohn Concerto," with its lovely acoustic intro, and the closer, "Gaelic Conspiracy."... Prydein have a truly novel sound. These fine musicians have one foot planted firmly in the past, while the other tries to kick the future's ass." |
