Our Take

Ah, the season of Christmas, a time for joy, festivities, and of course, music. And what better way to celebrate the holidays than with GOLDEN BOUGH's latest offering, "Christmas In A Celtic Land." This album is like a warming hug from a jovial leprechaun, whisking you away to a magical land filled with mistletoe, holly, and perhaps a pint of Guinness or two.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a mystical world where Christmas carols are sung in melodious Gaelic, accompanied by the hauntingly beautiful sounds of traditional Celtic instruments. The combination of fiddles, uilleann pipes, and bodhráns creates a rich tapestry of sound that is both evocative and enchanting.

Tracks like "The Wexford Carol" and "In The Bleak Midwinter" showcase the band's incredible musicianship and their ability to infuse traditional Christmas classics with a Celtic twist. Each note is played with precision and passion, capturing the essence of the holiday season in a way that is both nostalgic and fresh.

Overall, "Christmas In A Celtic Land" is a delightful festive treat that is sure to bring a smile to your face and a warmth to your heart. So grab a mince pie, pour yourself a glass of mulled wine, and let GOLDEN BOUGH serenade you into the Christmas spirit. Sláinte!

About the artist

Golden Bough

Golden Bough: The Enigmatic Enchanter of Indie Folk Hailing from the misty forests of Scotland, Golden Bough is the enigmatic enchanter of indie folk, weaving spells of whimsy and melancholy through his haunting melodies and poignant lyrics. With a voice that can soar to the heavens one moment and whisper secrets in your ear the next, Golden Bough is a true master of his craft. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Nick Drake, Joni Mitchell, and Sandy Denny, Golden Bough's music is a delicate tapestry of lush harmonies and intricate guitar work, painting pictures of love and loss, hope and despair. His debut album, "Whispers in the Wind", garnered critical acclaim for its raw emotion and ethereal beauty, establishing him as a rising star in the folk music scene. But Golden Bough is not just another melancholic troubadour - his live performances are a sight to behold, with his quirky charm and infectious energy winning over audiences wherever he goes. Whether he's strumming his guitar under the stars at a summer festival or crooning in a dimly-lit basement club, Golden Bough always leaves his audience spellbound and wanting more. With rumours of a sophomore album in the works and whispers of a collaboration with a certain indie darling on the horizon, Golden Bough is set to take the music world by storm once again. Keep your ears peeled and your hearts open, for this enigmatic enchanter is sure to cast his spell on you.
