      After listening to a recent project of mine entitled, 'Fuarthas - a Sonic Embodiment of the Connemara Landscape', Seo Linn were keen on incorporating more abstract and alternative approaches to traditional Irish music found on that project into their own work. I was delighted to be asked to get involved in both their studio projects and live performance work and to help this fantastic band marry these two experiences going forward.
