Hail the Swiss!! =) Yes, I also love this band. And in fact, they're the first musical encounter I've had with the gurdy (great, now I sound like I'm copying Samantha ... =) but it's true). We've even played a cover of Inis Mona with our band. Yes, HG included, played by myself.
For those of you not really into metal .. good news! The band (Eluveitie) also recorded an entirely folk/ambient album without the growls (almost =B) and electric guitars. It's called "Evocation I - The Arcane Dominion" and features a lot of hurdy-gurdy as well. Check it out, I've included a link to a song from the album entitled "Brictom": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EplEsr5IVj0 As you may know, I am also active in a folk metal band with my hurdy. Right now we're in the process of recording our demo, which will feature many folk instruments, also HG. Will post more when it's finished. Enjoy the beautiful springing of the year and keep the music alive! G -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hurdygurdy" group.
