I first got exposed to Song Of The Lakes while directing and shooting a documentary film on the ship wrecks of Thunder Bay in Lake Huron called Tragedies In The Mist. I used some of the groups music in that film as it fit the subject matter perfectly. If you like Irish music and Sea chants you got to love this group - they do a knock out job. Their new album Poets Say put their talent over the top. If you have any Irish blood in you - you have to have this CD - it speaks to your roots. Put it on - turn the volume up - close your eyes and you will feel the history and the ancestors filling your soul! Their music is like the blast of spray that hits you in the face when you stand on the bow of sailing ship as she beats through the waves - it wakes you up, lets you know you are alive and that things are pretty damn good!
