About Solas Featuring Seamus Egan
Amazon.com To push his music into the vocal realm, Seamus Egan has joined three musicians from the When Juniper Sleeps project--fiddler Winifred Horan, accordionist John Williams, and guitarist John Doyle--plus singer Karan Casey to form a band called Solas. Solas, produced by Silly Wizard's Johnny Cunningham, immediately marks this American quintet as a major force in Celtic music. The dance tunes combine rhythmic verve and melodic invention, and the songs give the instruments equal footing with the vocals. Egan's special gifts have never had a better setting. --Geoffrey Himes Product Description Not since the Bothy Band has such a powerhouse Irish traditional band hit the scene, featuring the talents of Seamus Egan on flute, banjo, guitar and pipes, Winifred Horan on fiddle, John Williams on accordian, John Doyle on guitar and Karen Casey as lead vocalist.
