Wolfstone, Classic Celtic Festival 2004

It's so hard to pick a favorite rock band when there are so many good bands out there but I am hard pressed as I loved the music Wolfstone put on the other night.

Stuart, Duncan and Stephen are very talented men who excell in their talents. I only got a brief moment to speak to them as I was running to catch a plane but I WISH I had been able to stay to watch them again. Their music was overwelming. I loved it!

This group is from my homeland of Scotland and they make me so proud to meet all of them. They are a pleasant down to earth group of talented musicians.

They will always be on my "MUST Do" list of who to see and hear!

They are a must to have "ALL" of their CD's!


I look forward to seeing them again next year!

Saw Wolfestone last year at the Dublin (Ohio) Irish Festival. Picked up their CD "Almost an ISland", which I understood is only available in this country via the band, at their concerts.
Really enjoyed them. They are one of my favorites.

Hey JP! You got to see Wolfstone?! I would really love to see them too. I now have two of their CDs: Pick of the Liter....The Best of and Almost An Island. I really love them. I think you can only buy their music via their website. I want to get more of their music. I bet they put on a good performance, eh? I am hoping they will come out west on their USA tour.

heh
you reminded me "Almost an Island"
I ordered earlier (5 months ago), too bad it's out of stock for a while, and end up Amazon cancelled my order
I go back tonight, it's back, and order again
I have Seven, nice product

Oh good, Mingkee! It's a great album! Hope you enjoy!

The first two CDs of Wolfestone I bought, the Half Tail and...i forgot the name I believe I got from Green Linnet. I occassionally get a newsletter from GL and ordered the CDs through them.
I really like them too Rosie. My boys and I listen to them alot!

Hey, I haven't heard of this band before and just now happened on this topic... I know there are links where I could hear them at, but real quickly can any of you tell me who they might sound like style-wise? Do they remind you of anyone else?

SB

SB! Would you please stop this nonsense for a week until you get your birthday gifts I mailed to you this past Friday?! You should get your package on Thursday, dear!

JP! You and I seem to have the same taste in music!

I'm WAITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




SB (not the patient type nosirree)

I see that!

Anyway, Wolfstone is a terrific band from Scotland. I have two of their CDs. They have kind of blend of rock with Scottish sound with pipes and drums and suchl. I am not sure who to compare them to. Maybe Enter the Haggis, but I like Wolfstone MUCH better.

Yep! I'd say we do!!!

I'd say Wolfestone has a somewhat heavy rock influence in some of their songs.
I do really like them so!

Wolfstone really have the knack of combining pipes and the modal folk tunes with the heavier rock elements of backbeat and lots of electric guitar and bass. I think that combination is a natural anyway , but they really do it to the hilt. There's a magnificence to it, like full regalia. (Great Big Sea can get close to that really massive, solid sound too sometimes.)
