Our Take

The McCalmans have always had a knack for blending traditional folk sounds with a modern twist, and their latest album, "Smuggler / House Full / Side By Side By Side / Burn The Witch," is no exception.

Opening with the rollicking tune "Smuggler," the trio sets the tone for a lively and energetic journey through the Scottish folk tradition. The harmonies are tight, the instrumentation is top-notch, and the storytelling is as captivating as ever.

"House Full" takes things in a slightly more contemplative direction, with beautiful melodies and poignant lyrics that will have you reaching for the nearest tissue. The McCalmans prove once again that they are true masters of their craft, effortlessly weaving between different moods and emotions with ease.

"Side By Side By Side" offers a more anthemic feel, with rousing choruses and soaring harmonies that will have you singing along in no time. The energy on this track is infectious, and it's impossible not to get swept up in the sheer joy of the music.

Finally, "Burn The Witch" closes out the album with a bang, combining dark, brooding lyrics with a driving beat and haunting melodies that will linger in your mind long after the last note fades. The McCalmans have once again proven that they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of folk music, and "Smuggler / House Full / Side By Side By Side / Burn The Witch" is a testament to their enduring talent and creativity.
