KINDRED is proud to announce the release of their first CD Recording, CELTIC FLAIR. It is an exciting collection of original songs, fiddle tunes, and classic Celtic standards. With Felicia Meyer''s incredible voice and guitar, and Dave Meyer''s versatile Cello Playing, the duo, KINDRED, bring to life both old and new music in the Celtic Style.
The CD has 12 tracks featuring original songs written by Felicia such as the haunting Song of Wandering Aengus, based on a poem by W.B. Yeats, and Soaring Song with words by Felicia''s Father, Richard L Miller. They keep things bouncy when Dave gives fiddle players a run for their money by playing traditional fiddle tunes on his cello, aided by Felicia''s driving guitar and bodhran playing. Rounding out the performance is Kindred''s take on classics such as The Water is Wide, He Moved Through the Fair, Molly Malone, and Down by the Salley Gardens. You have not heard Danny Boy until you''ve heard Felicia sing it in a live recording from the Hochstein Music School in Rochester, NY. Guest Musicians on the recording include: Ars Nova String Quartet, the Dady Brothers (octave mandolin and ueillian pipes), Mitzie Collins (hammer dulcimer), Laurie Hart (fiddle), and Roxanne Zeigler (harp).
With a rare blending of voice, cello, guitars, and percussion, KINDRED draw their music from the Irish poets, pubs, and county fairs; from the Scottish Highlands, Atlantic Canada, and the Appalachian crannies of the American southeast.
The band''s CD offers a sample of the beauty of their music which is fast gaining popularity and increasing airplay. A live performance by KINDRED captivates the audience with beautiful ballads, heartfelt emotional singing, and virtuoso playing. Driving fiddle tunes played on the cello make them unique on the Celtic scene. KINDRED performances include a healthy dose of humor including the festival favorite "Half a Hundred Nuns" song based on a true story. The band is known for their engaging, charismatic personalities and funny banter. KINDRED makes the audience part of the performance, rousing their emotions to standing ovations.
