Album Notes

"With the release of Beneath the Calm, her third album, Fil Campbell steps out of the
shadows as a gifted songwriter to add to her reputation as a discerning cover artist.
She has come of age with this recording and it will bring repeated pleasure to
listeners." Ian Clarke, Downpatrick Folk Club , N. Ireland

"Beneath the Calm" (LMP 008), released in 2002 is the 3rd solo album from Northern
Irish singer Fil Campbell and marks her first serious foray into songwriting.

"...wow does she have a pretty and interesting voice."
www.columbiagypsy.net/fil.htm

Fil has a fine lyrical voice and is an entertaining performer as evidenced by audiences
at concerts on her frequent tours in Germany, Holland and Britain. Her live set is a
mixture of contemporary and traditional songs and she is recording an album of
traditional Irish songs of the 40s and 50s.

Beneath the Calm was recorded in Sligo and Dublin with the help of percussionist
Tom McFarland (with whom Fil mainly tours), bass player James Blennerhassett and
guitarist Bill Shanley. The album features 7 of Fil's original songs, one title from the
pen of Mick Hanly and 2 songs from another new Irish writer, Celine Carroll.

Phil or Fil , the music is great
author: Pieter from Holland
                            
Having had the privelege to hear and see her perform some years back in the Fookhook in Sevenum, her music drifts on this third album a little bit to the commercial side, but still her music is great. Some of the Irish touch is missing on this one, but if you like this the other two previous ones are earning 5 stars in my collection so add those as well.
