Great Celtic folk music, played fervently on acoustic instruments with a hard-rock attitude
Bio / Background
When I first played a cut from Furious Fancies for one of our long-time fans, she listened a while and then said, "So this is like the serious part just before you get funny, right?"
"No, it's not," I replied. "This is a serious song. The whole album is serious music."
"Oh, c'mon, Uncle Cedric," she replied, "the Bedlam Bards don't know any serious songs!"
I knew right then that we had to finish this album just to prove that we are real musicians.
Take a listen to any of the samples, and I think you'll agree that it worked.
After that conversation, I went to the owner of the faire and told him that we would need one set a day outside of the pub, so that we could play music suitable for the whole family.
↓ more ↓That was the origin of our "sit-down set" (as in, "They told us we had to play on this stage, and we told them we wouldn't stand for it!")
So crack open this CD and enter a mysterious world of pirates, outlaws, ghost ships, madmen, star-crossed lovers, strong drink, and long-lost friends. You'll never be the same again.
Of course, we know you'll want the whole Bedlam Bards collection, so don't forget to check out our other albums:

Loved it from the first time I heard it! I have worn it completely out.
