'Excellent debut cd'
The Living Tradition
'Deoch 'n' Dorus is one of the most exciting bands in the country today...The core players of the band, Stuart, Simon and Andrew have a maturity of expression and professionalism far in excess of their years...making the final product outstanding. Having taken part in, and produced many recordings over the years, I must say this is one of the most impressive and enjoyable ones I have been lucky to be associated with...
John Carmichael
' This is a band, which has the good grace to allow the music the freedom it deserves, but keeps a tight reign within a strong professional framework. With musicians like this around things are going to be good for a very long time.'
Hey, glad you liked my take on 'The Rutting', it's a damn fine tune Sim! I just had a wee listen to your tracks; it's so good to hear you play- it made me miss you guys. I hope you're all well and happy and I'll def let you know when next I'm in Glasgow... I hope it won't be too long.
