Description
Twins Mike and Ali Vass have been astounding audiences in the UK and beyond with their invigorating live performances for more than a decade now. 'Waiting to Fly' is their first full length recording together. It showcases their deep musical connection described thus by one reviewer: 'Their genetic, telepathic powers extend way beyond finishing each other's sentences, tunes shifting direction and stopping dead with eerie precision' (Barry Gordon)
The recording features fiery instrumental sets on fiddle, piano and guitar, as well as older Scots Songs set to new melodies by the twins. Mike's award winning compositions play an integral part in this collection. Having been part of international outfit 'Fiddle Rendezvous' featuring Bruce Molsky, Mary Ann Kennedy, Gerry O'Connor and Gilles LeBigot, you can hear the Breton, Appalachian and Irish influence in this recording.
