Emerald Rose is a delightful mix of the old and new...from the upbeat, rabble-rousing sound of "Never Underestimate..." to the very haunting "Pict Song". Perhaps the most moving song on this CD is Hinds' "Bring Me Home", describing the longing for a land never seen. It brings tears to my eyes every time! The only flaw in the CD is that the listener is left wanting to hear even more!! A definate 5 Star!!!

This is a wonderful CD and a wonderful band. I met the band at the 1999 Atlanta Celtic Festival when I introduced them. They are a wonderful group of people and I highly reccommend their CD.

Emerald Rose has put together a thoroughly enjoyable CD including jubilant, rollicking songs, such as Maggie Lauder, Donald MacGillivray, Scatter the Mud/Tar Road to Sligo/Paddy Clancy's, and Padstow; but the band does not neglect to sing the reflective, soulful songs such as Dagger of the Moon, A Pict Song, Bring Me Home, and a personal favorite, The World's Wedding/One Single Kiss. They blend traditional tunes with a modern feel to produce a truly delightful sound. Not only that, but I've met the band, and they are genuinely great guys!

I was started out simply looking for lore of scottish and irish natures but then I came upon Emerald Rose and I was hooked. I have always enjoyed listening to a variety of musical types and this grabbed me very well. A mixture of fantastic vocals to beautiful playing of instruments (Might I add that the pennywhistle playing is the best i've ever heard? ) This is a definate Band that I would suggest to anyone searching for music that is easy to listen to and understandable not to mention pleasing to all senses. ~Sincerely, Victoria Huey

I have never been more pleased then having the opportunity to hear Emerald Rose's music! Upbeat, paganistic, celtic..it is so eclectic! This is a great CD for a first time buyer to this range and type of music!

I really enjoy this CD. Their original songs are great and their renditions of traditional songs are nice too. The song, Never Underestimate... is one of my favorites!

I highly recommend Emerald Rose to anyone who enjoys Celtic music or modern folk. These guys are a blast. Their renditions of traditional tunes are fine, but their own compositions are even better. Don't miss "Summerland."

I highly recomend this album to anyone who enjoys music of the Celtic spirit with a modern air...tis truely enchanting to behold:)

More than worth it. The singers have a passion for their roots and show it in their music.

Emerald Rose is a wonderful mix of Celtic, Welsch and other Backrounds that are unmissibly what your looking for. They have large aspects of life and arent your 'average' band. They have fun, sad and just plain good songs that get a 5 Star Thumbs up for me!! Dont miss this CD title, its exactly what your looking for. Rain or Shine!! Hi Emerald Rose!!! PSG Rules. See you at StarWood!! C'Mon Say it!! Go Sexy Goats!!!! Yeah!!!
