Don't just download. "The Band o'Shearers" by Ed Miller
Ed Miller is a product of the great folk revival of the 1960's. He perfroms songs of Scotland new and old and has an amazing repetoire, not to mention he is an amazing performer. I was fortunate to see him once again the Texas Scottish Festival performing with fiddler John Taylor, including several songs by legendary Scottish songwriter Brian McNeill, who helped produce Ed's latest album, "Many's The Fine Tale".
 One of the more beautiful and memorable traditional Scottish songs from the album is "The Band O'Shearers". No, it's not a song about sheep. This is one of many, usually happy, songs associated with the harvest in northeast Scotland, when men and women worked together in the fields, the men shearing the crop with scythes and the women stacking it.Hometown: Austin, Texas Similar Artists: Adam McNaughtan, Hamish Henderson, Brian McNeill, Archie Fisher, Al O'Donnell, Jimmie Hutchison, any good Scots or Irish singer.
