Mary Ann Kennedy with new tracks from across the globe, plus a studio session with Scottish folk pioneers Capercaille.

Capercaillie celebrate their 30th anniversary this year, releasing their first album for five years. As much as any other band, they revitalised Scottish music, presenting traditional songs and tunes in a way that is thoroughly up to date, yet still respecting the original spirit, and also writing new songs in a contemporary Scottish folk style. In their new album they return to the ancient repertoire of Hebridean songs.
