Kevin Crawford is one of the exceptional flute players of Irish traditional music. His virtuosity fuels the dynamic Irish band Lúnasa and the classic instrumental group Moving Cloud. Following his acclaimed solo debut ’D’ Flute Album, Kevin has now recorded an album of duets with some of his heroes: eight of Ireland’s legendary fiddlers. In Good Company features Tommy Peoples, Martin Hayes, Frankie Gavin of DeDannan, Tony Linnane, Conor Tully, James Cullinan, Manus McGuire of Moving Cloud, and Seán Smyth of Lúnasa. Stripping back the layers of today’s musical technology, they reach the "pure drop" of fiddle and flute, the unbridled joy of playing. A remarkable concept exquisitely brought to life by a flutist of extraordinary skill and sensitivity. Special guest musicians include guitarist Arty McGlynn, bodhrán player Jim Higgins and keyboardist Carl Hession of Moving Cloud.
"When I’m on the tour bus or the plane, these are the musicians I miss the most, the ones I wish I was playing tunes with back home in Clare…." - Kevin Crawford
"Kevin Crawford has truly conjured musical magic here." - Earle Hitchner, liner notes to In Good Company
