This coming Friday, 12 September, will be Alan Grant’s last Friday night programme on Celtic Music Radio live in studio 1.
Alan says: “I am going out on a high note with extra special guests Reely Jiggered who will be showcasing their superb new album “Kaleidoscope” prior to its launch at Òran Mór, Great Western Road at Byres Road, Hillhead, Glasgow on Saturday 20 September.
There may be joy, there may be tears, but great music is guaranteed as always. Don’t miss out on hearing Reely Jiggered live, they are a force to be reckoned with and play music of the very highest calibre!” Email: studio@celticmusicradio.net Visit Alan’s FB page.
Since winning the SoundWave Music Competition at the O2 ABC in January 2014, there has been no stopping Scottish folk fusion band Reely Jiggered!
Their new album, Kaleidoscope, shows just how versatile these musicians are as they shape shift from one folk tradition to another.
To go to one of their gigs is to be taken on a journey through the streets of Mexico, the salsa clubs of Cuba, the furious fiddling of gypsies, and haunting melodies of Celtic Britain mixed with the soaring voice of a diva soprano, the beauty of acoustic instruments, revved up by driving bass lines, wah wah pedals and rocked up rhythms.
