Fergus is a Chapman Stick/bass player who has played on some 80 CDs. Some of the artists he has worked with include: Bruce Cockburn, Peter Murphy, Kevin Prosch, JoAnn McFatter, Steve Bell, Leonard Jones, Mark Heard, Keith and Sanna Luker, Mary-Kathryn, Kirk and Lesley Martin and Lisa Dalbello. He also scored the music for the academy award winning film "Ryan" in 2005.
SPIRIT MOVES is his first solo effort. Some of the musical influences on the CD are Celtic, African, Middle Eastern, Electronica and Jazz.
The nature of the CD is that of modern day chants. The scripture based melodies weave and bob over extended grooves with atmospheric soloing.
Fergus recently recorded a CD with Leonard Jones entitled High Places. High Places was recorded spontaneously along with some loops. Leonard mostly played violin, but also played acoustic guitar and sitar. The Cd is available from MorningStarMinistries.org
