Edsall Road's musical interests are diverse
within the scope of traditional and folk music.
They draw their songs from traditional Scots/
Irish sources, the maritime tradition of Nova
Scotia, standard Irish pub tunes and contemporary
Irish and folk music as well.
The band's repertoire of traditional tunes comes
largely from the member's Fife and Drum Corps
background. This is a bit of a diversion from the
standard traditional group, however, it is by no
means a digression. The band's instrumental
selections are firmly rooted in the music of
Scotland and Ireland, most of it coming from
Eighteenth century sources. Of course, the band
picks up tunes, like any good group of musicians,
by listening to other musicians and drawing good
tunes from recordings. |
