Description
Timothy Cummings and Jeremiah McLane (affectionately nicknamed ‘Wheezer and Squeezer’) present a rare and masterful Old World blend of traditional dance repertoire from Brittany, central France, and the British Isles, as well as original compositions inspired by dance forms from these regions. The album features Tim on Border pipes, Scottish smallpipes, and whistles, and Jeremiah on piano accordion and piano. The Wind Among the Reeds has been featured on BBC Radio Scotland’s ‘Pipeline’ and NPR’s ‘Thistle & Shamrock’; and music critic Art Edelstein (Montpelier Times-Argus, Rutland Herald) awarded the record ‘Vermont Album-of-the-Year’ for 2016. Audio samples below. (Several of the tunes featured on this album are available here as individually downloadable PDFs.) More information, including extended liner notes, can be found on the Wheezer & Squeezer website.
