The album features favourites from their live set: innovative arrangements of the Irish and Scottish traditions.
CARA celebrate their 15th anniversary on the international folk scene with their seventh release: a new live album, recorded during their 2017 tour. The album features favourites from the band's live set: innovative arrangements of material frmly rooted in the Irish and Scottish traditions, critically acclaimed original songs and tunes, and several brand new tracks.
Uplifting, energising and expressive, with lead vocalists Gudrun Walther (Germany) and Kim Edgar (Scotland) alongside piano, fddle, fute, guitar, dobro, bodhrán, uilleann pipes and accordion, CARA have been described as 'a whole festival wrapped up in one band' (Bruce MacGregor, BBC Radio Scotland).
Winners of the Irish Music Awards for 'Best New Irish Artist' (2010) and 'Top Group' (2011), CARA have toured the USA seven times, headlining at some of the country's biggest festivals, including Milwaukee Irish Fest, Kansas City Irish Fest, ICONS, and Dublin Irish Fest.
CARA perform regularly in Ireland and Scotland; recent visits have included the 30th Cork Folk Festival, and launching their studio album, 'Yet We Sing' at Glasgow's Celtic Connections (2016) followed by a Scottish tour taking in Edinburgh's Queens Hall and Eden Court, Inverness. In 2017, they completed their frst English tour and headlined Main Stage 2 at Shrewsbury Folk Festival.
The group's distinctive approach and creativity in recording and live performance have enjoyed international critical acclaim, and for their anniversary year, CARA look forward to touring Australia for the frst time, with a 4 week tour in April 2018.
