--------------------------------------
Welcome to the world of the Monster Ceilidh Band. Here lies a land where fiddles thread notes so fine they could fall through the eye of the needle. Accordion bellows speak in mischievous melodies, sending Scotsmen flying and running circles around the dancers. Drops of bass and Canadian Barn dub pulse through the ground in perfect time with the stomping giant of the mandolin family, the mandocello, who keeps the natural swing going. Some know what's going on - some don't. But everyone is smiling and the Monsters are happy.

This first album has been produced following the format of a dance mix. After all, this is music to dance to! It's the first of its kind for a ceilidh group, so enjoy. Using a mix of traditional and original tunes the dance need never end!
