Album Notes

Greenwood Tree is the duo of Bill Cagley (guitar, mandolin, and bodhran) and Stu Janis (hammered dulcimer and bowed psaltery). Musical partners since 1985, they perform lively and lyrical traditional music of the British Isles. The unique sound of the St. Paul, Minnesota, duo is a blend of lively jigs and reels, haunting airs, and sweet waltzes, with melodies deftly traded between instruments. The combination of Stu’s sprightly dulcimer with Bill’s driving flat-picked Martin guitar provides energy for quick dance tunes, while slower selections are enhanced by dulcimer arpeggios and a finger-picked guitar.

The album is sophisticated and interesting enough so that my wife and I enjoy it, yet also fun enough so that our toddler son likes it. He is mezmerized by some of the songs, and keeps pointing at the speakers when we play it.
