Album Notes

Touring since 1990, this husband and wife duo blends breakneck instrumentals with warm harmony vocals, to weave a vibrant experience of texture and fun!
Curiously untamed… they simply don’t fit the expected Celtic mold. Tight harmonies give traditional songs a modern feel and original compositions are given an ancient twist.
A national award for instrumentals as well as International awards for song writing, guarantee a quality of purpose in the music.
All of the duo's recordings were done with the intent that a listener would get the same musical experience as in a Willson & McKee concert. No over production, tasteful arrangements, solid musicianship, and a connection with the music itself.
Please check the website for details on our awards, touring schedule, educational and performance programs, and how you can bring Willson & McKee to your community!

Chosen to be sold at the visitor’s center at El Morro National Monument in New Mexico because of the title track. The mesa is literally a sandstone document of the passage of time and inscriptions were the inspiration for the song. Beginning in 1605, the repeated inscriptions of “Paseo por aqui” (Passed by here) remind us of our brief time in this world. This recording has a southwest flavor mixed in with the traditional and original Celtic foundations. Traditional Scottish ballads, blood-pumping Irish dance tunes, songs about Mexican food... a surprise in every track! Ken and Kim invite listeners to share a unique place between red chili and the north sea...
