Donnie Murdo Macleod, originally from Stornoway in the Isle of Lewis, is one of the leading traditional Gaelic singers of his generation. He won the National Mod Traditional Gold Medal in 1996, which brought his singing to a wider audience. But even before that, he was regarded, by all who came across his talent, as a singer of great depth, with an extraordinary capacity for faithfully learning songs from the Gaelic tradition, many of which were, and are, ignored by other singers.
This is his first album and it contains some of the many songs Donnie has learned from the great tradition bearers of a past generation, for whom he has the utmost admiration and respect.
