Chaimbeul, Brighde

Carry Them With Us

Scottish smallpipes player Brighde Chaimbeul is a leading purveyor of experimental Celtic music. Her second album "Carry Them With Us" is an exhilarating weave of rich textural drones, trance-like atmospheres and instrumental folk traditions. Intimate, deeply placed and gorgeous. The Scottish smallpipes, with their double-note drones, were in danger of falling into obscurity before Brighde (pronounced Bree-chuh) Chaimbeul, a native Gaelic speaker from the Isle of Skye, became part of their more recent revival. Shes brought the instrument to a global stage, and with this album, shes taken it beyond folk music, discovering a place where the tradition and minimalism meet, offering her the freedom to experiment in sound and create something completely her own. This album is undoubtedly Chaimbeuls vision, but collaborator Colin Stetson, an experimental saxophonist and film, helped her realise it.
