DRUMLIN is a spirited sibling band from Bridgewater, Nova Scotia. DRUMLIN specializes in song writing, and also has a passion for adapting, arranging and restoring heritage folk song fragments into a cutting edge fusion of traditional and modern music. This riveting young band has been performing together for almost a decade and their unforgettable musical presence heartens the audience and celebrates life.
DRUMLIN’s unique sound and magnetic harmonies are being featured on an ever increasing number of other Canadian musician''s CDs. Witty sibling stage talk and a fascinating knowledge about the songs they perform make DRUMLIN a band not to be missed.
DRUMLIN''s new release ''Mackerel Skies'' features a selection of the intriguing and untamed heritage songs of Nova Scotia from the collections of Helen Creighton. These twelve songs were chosen from over one thousand collected tunes found in the Nova Scotia Archives. ''Mackerel Skies'' is the upshot of a gifted and hard working team which includes the outstanding talent of record producer Tim Feswick, the celebrated flat picking guitar work of JP Cormier, the award winning photography of Scott Munn, and the Juno nominated graphic design of Jud Haynes.
"For many, Drumlin''s ''Mackerel Skies'' will represent the future for traditional songs from the Maritimes."
- Clary Croft
"This recording of ''Mackerel Skies'' has been a producer''s dream. Drumlin''s individual musicianship is honest, meticulous, and mature..."
-Tim Feswick
“The Canadian Maritimes must truly be a place of a music fertile soil because group after group seems to emerge from the region with a sound which captivates. The list of course includes the likes of Great Big Sea, The Rankin Family and the Barra MacNeils. Now you can add Drumlin to the list.”
- Calvin Daniels, Yorkton This Week
"Drumlin is a bright new light on Nova Scotia''s musical horizon."
-Brookes Diamond
