lyrics
Flickering flame draws your glance
Your eyes are shining, the colours dance
The soul inside is spurred to flight
The old response to the firey light
Upon the shoulders of those before us
Feel the heat, it’s a vibrant chorus
That is unlocked when fire’s spied
Whose and light are qualified
To keep us safe and strong and free
To dream upon our own humanity
The fire burns, my mind discerns
Breath of wood to ash returns
The energy within concealed
I can see now what’s behind the veil
Shadows chased away by light
Now are dancing creatures bright
Undefined and free of form
Invention sparks within us born
Spark leaps up to join its’ kin
The flame without, the flame within
Within the burning embers lie
The inspiration of our own minds eye
From hearth to thought, from earth to mind
To then escape to conquer time
To kindle life, the spark will fly,
To live it’s light, before to die
As crackling the blaze it leaps,
Reaches upwards for the sky
To where distant stars infernos blaze
All of this reflected in your gaze
Your eyes gleam, the stillness seems
To rest upon your dancing dreams,
The energy within concealed
I can see now what’s behind the veil

Absolutely sensational - love the generally low-end tones and planxty-esque set up, but most of all the incredible energy of it! Wish more instrumental trad was like this, love the fact that it's recorded live too. Prangman

A delightful and well crafted album, and one of my top favorites. "When You're Gone I Say Your Name" is so beautiful, it just makes me pick up my concertina. Definitely music goals. :) MC

🍻 I'm speechless. I can't even pronounce the guy's name (I'm working on that 🤣🤣), let alone comment on how brilliant his playing is. Not only that, but the physical album is the most substantial CD case and booklet I've ever held, outside of an OH MY GIRL album. Yes, I'm proud of myself for referencing k-pop while commenting on an Irish trad record. Anyone searching for tenor banjo on BC could stop here and be entirely fulfilled, although I encourage you to search for others as well. ⚡🔥🪕🔥⚡ acmochi
