Through Lands and Waters Wide
The Full Moon Ensemble from Alabama (not to confuse with the German Full Moon Trio) sticks into Celtic music as it came across the Great Western Ocean from Ireland and Britain and developed into old time music in the mountains of Appalachia. Daniel Carwile plays a fine fiddle and gives us a selection of jigs & reels against guitar, bass and percussion. Allison King leads on vocals on the classic traditionals "Lakes of Pontchartrain" and "Do You Love an Apple?", but also some contemporary stuff from the band members backgrounds. The group's name leaves a very poetical impression. But it's certainly a gigging band, not a bunch of cowboys delivering ditties around the campfire when the coyotes are howling and a full moon is shining through the clouds.
