Another young, funky harp player. Things are getting interesting.
Long thought of as an 'old' instrument, the newer models seem to lend themselves, quite nicely, to an almost jazz-tinged folk music.
Albums like this will certainly make you change your mind about the instrument and the overall impression is that there is a future out there for players like Ailie.
You must have a listen. It's good!
