Blanche Rowen & Mike Gulston recommends:
Fishe or Fowle
by Kate Fletcher & Corwen Broch
An outstanding album by two very lovely and talented people. I played this until I nearly wore it out. If you like varied material, old and new, with a range of strange instruments, this is for you.

Y Mabinogi - The Second Branch
by Damh the Bard
All of Damh's work is great; his Mabinogi albums are a superb retelling of this ancient saga brought to life with new songs. I've picked the Second Branch as I had the honour to sing Branwen's lament.

Raining in Paradise
by Metheglin
Before we both joined the band, Mike guested extensively on this CD, and Blanche chanted mediævally on one track. Raining In Paradise is a masterpiece of layered beauty - exquisite ambient-prog-folk.

Beautiful Pagan Folk music, that tells beautiful stories. You won't find many that do music like this any more. I also love the Celtic and Norse themes
