Remembering

"Alongside his work with Jarlath Henderson and positions in both Salsa Celtica and Treacherous Orchestra, Ainslie has managed to somehow shoe-horn in a Celtic Connections-commissioned solo album a mere 12 months along from his previous solo effort. And what an album it is! ... There's a relaxed and friendly vibe throughout the record ... There's also a heart-on-sleeve feeling of honesty driving the lyrical content of the album ... Ainslie has been a jewel in the crown of Scottish traditional music for several years now but with Remembering he's unleashed a brilliantly upbeat record that is his very own crowning glory".

"In addition to his success with Treacherous Orchestra, 2015 has also brought Ross a commission from Celtic Connections as part of their New Voices series. The result is (...) "Remembering", in which Ross adds song writer to his long list of talents ... Despite having worked together on numerous recordings and live shows before, every member of the company Ross has brought together for Remembering is aware of the uniqueness of this project; and that awareness shines through in the music. This isn't a trad, or pipe music album. It isn't a rock or a pop album. Remembering takes elements of all these genres, and many more ... Remembering takes things forward and is certainly a substantial step forward for Ross Ainslie".
