The addition of Lewis-born Gaelic singer Calum Alex MacMillan to their well-established instrumental line-up has added a new dimension to the music of Dàimh. Iain MacDonald’s significant and identifiable production touch and Calum Malcolm’s remarkable recording skills combine excellently to provide a quality sound throughout the album.
Dàimh consists of Angus MacKenzie (Highland pipes, Border pipes), Gabe McVarish (fiddle), Colm O’Rua (banjo and mandola), Ross Martin (guitar), James Bremner (bodhran) and the most recent addition to the lineup, former Gaelic Mod winner Calum Alex MacMillan.
Producer Iain MacDonald adds flute and whistle on several tracks, and several guests are also featured: Anxo Lorenzo (Galician gaitas, Baroque recorder), Xose Liz de Cea (bouzouki, lute) and The Clachnabrochan Gaelic Choir.
