Album Notes

Nothing like this has ever been done....

John Two-Hawks, master American Indian musician and cedar flute virtuoso collaborated with Manach, premier Irish composer, celtic flutist, musician & singer to create a new musical concept that is like no other.

With 'Traditions', John Two-Hawks continues to 'push the envelope' with the cedar flute, joining his world-class, signature style of Native American flute music with the ancient sounds of the Irish/Celtic flute, tin whistles, drums and vocals of Manach.

Manach, a seasoned composer of Celtic relaxation CDs and a gifted musician and vocalist, was born and resides in the sacred Wicklow Mountains of Ireland. The end result of this musical and cultural collaboration is a completely new style of soul stirring and heart moving music! Two fantastic artists, one incredible CD.
