Album Notes

World traveler Robin Petrie has been deeply involved in dance (Scottish, ballet, flamenco, middle-eastern, Balkan) since childhood and has played hammered dulcimer and recorded numerous albums since 1980, touring the US, Europe and Southern Hemisphere extensively. Though focusing initially on British Isles and French music, her current work includes music from many cultures around the globe. She also has a major soft spot for both Cajun and New Orleans music and culture.

Robin's sparkling "Indie" award-winning style can be heard on other Gourd albums including A Victorian Noël, Oktober County, Simple Gifts, The World Turned Upside Down, Tree of Life, Autumn in the Valley and Wondrous Love.
