Artists Include: Capercaillie, Altan, Cara Dillon, Chantan, Solas, Liz Carroll & John Doyle, Grada, John Doyle, Alasdair Fraser & Natalie Haas, Old Blind Dogs, Vishtèn, Yann-Fanch Kemener & Aldo Ripoche, Ffynnon

Bonus CD:
Dalla: Rooz
Dalla could be described as the first Supergroup in Cornish Celtic music. With an unparallelled grounding in the traditions of Cornwall, this remarkable five piece band is at the very forefront of the traditional Cornish music revival.
