Robin Williamson & His Merry Band - A Glint At The Kindling
Review by Ryan Hartley
A Glint At The Kindling, the latest album by Robin Williamson & His Merry Band, is a captivating and enchanting work of art. The album is a beautiful blend of Celtic folk, traditional melodies, and contemporary sounds that transport listeners to a world of magic and wonder.
Williamson's voice is hauntingly beautiful and his lyrics are deeply poetic, weaving tales of love, loss, and the mysteries of life. The instrumentation is equally impressive, with the use of traditional instruments like the harp, fiddle, and flute, as well as more modern instruments like the electric guitar and synthesizer, creating a unique and mesmerizing sound.
The album is a seamless journey from start to finish, with each track flowing effortlessly into the next. Standout tracks include "The Herring Song," a lively and joyous tune that will have listeners tapping their feet, and "The Road To Lisdoonvarna," a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases Williamson's incredible vocal range.
