Long Time Courting

" I'm struck by their precision and creativity this is not a "girl band" for the sake of being so. These women are true masters of their craft."
-Aoife O'Donovan, vocalist and songwriter, Crooked Still
"The vocal harmonies reminded me of the clarity that the Anonymous Four brought to its American folk music album." Art Edelstein, Times Argus
Long Time Courting features fresh Celtic music performed by four individually accomplished traditional musicians and singers. The impressive quartet offers rich, soaring four-part vocal arrangements and high energy dance tunes. Melding the talents of Sarah Blair on fiddle/vocals, Liz Simmons on guitar/vocals, Shannon Heaton on flute/vocals, and Ariel Friedman on cello/vocals, this Boston-based band shares a love of traditional Irish, Scottish and American folk music as well as contemporary material. They bring elements of these various genres to their repertoire in a way that is seamlessly innovative, inventively arranged, and skillfully rendered.
