The World's Room

For 10 years Old Blind Dogs have stood at the leading edge of the roots revival that has both reawakened and revolutionized Scottish music. Combining a deep appreciation of ancient traditions with a highly contemporary, dynamically cosmopolitan musical approach, their uniquely distinctive arrangements of ballads, air and dance-tunes put the sounds of their homeland firmly on the world-music map. The songs and tunes it contains reveal both the depth and refinement honed through nearly a decade of performing and recording, and the pulse-quickening spark that comes from a new and true, meeting of musical minds.
