CP: New Nua CD "Head Full Of Dreams" available for pre-order

Irish Flute
1

Hi fellow chiffers,

my band Nua is going to release their second album “Head Full Of Dreams” in May, and pre-orders have started a few days ago! The album features eleven tracks and 53:40 minutes of irish and scottish contemporary trad music on flute and whistle, fiddle, voice, bouzouki and bodhrán. Our new fiddler and additional singer Catriona Price from Orkney changed the band sound a lot, from irish trad only on the first album to a new sound with a lot more scottish and orcadian influences on this upcoming record. Additionally, Andrew Laking of Gráda is featured on three tracks with double bass.

When pre-ordering, you get the album on its release date in May shipped to your doorstep, for 15€ including worldwide shipping! Check www.nuamusic.de for a little taster and how to preorder. :slight_smile:

All the best,
Gabriel

PS: as a little extra for C&F’ers, I uploaded one full track for you to listen here!

That is one mighty sounding album. Wow. The fluting is pretty good as well :wink: . The ladies definitely add a lot. Now you sound as good as any band I’ve heard out there.

Will be ordering. Cheers!

Thanks for uploading a sample track, that was really great. I especially like the bodhran which I thought was very nice without being too much. Good luck for your new CD!\

Thank you so much for the nice comments! We’re currently compiling the booklet text and doing pre-release promotional work. Here’s what Niamh Dunne of Beoga said about the new album:

“There is an honesty and integrity to the latest musical offering from Nua. These precious tunes and songs are approached with a sensitivity and understanding of the tradition, while laced with fiery arrangements and an obvious passion. The band has arrived at its own unique sound, something all musicians strive to achieve. Head Full of Dreams should be a part of every music lover’s collection.”

I’m a wee bit proud… :party:

Best wishes,
G.
