The Celtic Music Radio Album of the Week commencing Saturday 18 October is the new album from Reely Jiggered with their superb new CD “Kaleidoscope”.

Alan Grant chats to members of Reely Jiggered about the album and their music.

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.

The album was launched at Òran Mór, Hillhead, Glasgow on Saturday 20 September 2014.

Album of the Week, Saturday 18 October 12 noon and 12 midnight and Monday 20 October 7.00pm and Catch Up anytime.
