"With Runrig finally calling it a day this summer Skerryvore are a worthy successor to keeping the Celtic folk rock flame alive. An album that will appeal to lovers of folk and energetic, melodic tunes - highly recommended".

"The sixth studio album from the two-time winners of the Scots Trad Live Act of the Year award (2016 and 2011) contains warm, joyous, life-affirming Highland Scottish folk-rock in the grand tradition of Run Rig. Formed in 2005, Skerryvore's journey has taken them from the Hebridean island of Tiree to big gigs in international venues ... Rather unusually, Skerryvore combine elements of Scottish stadium pop-rock (think Simple Minds or Big Country) with a ceilidh-band sound-palette of accordeon, whistles and pipes. And echoes of the Run Rig sound can be heard in Skerryvore's use of catchy electric-guitar riffs that sound like bagpipes. This album includes the previously-released single "Live Forever" that hit number one in the iTunes World Music chart last year".
