"Fifth album from one of Wales' most talked about folk bands: [Calan] produce a sumptuous sound, rippling and shimmering whether it's a breakneck reel or a mournful refrain, with fiddle and accordion snaking around one another. Considering the pedigree of the musicians, it's little wonder. Accordionist Bethan Rhiannon is also a national clog dancing champion; three-time Junior Celtic Welsh Fiddle champion Patrick Rimes also plays Welsh bagpipes; and fiddler Angharad Jenkins hails from the Welsh equivalent of England's Waterson:Carthy clan - essentially Welsh folk royal ... This driving mix of tunes and ballads - mainly in Welsh with the occasional moment of English - is deeply evocative of place, especially to anyone who knows Wales well. The bagpipes make some stirring appearances, and when Rhiannon's voice shines out clear, they have shades of Scotland's Capercaillie about their sound".
