This Evening’s Musicians

Dan Houghton and Eric McDonald make up two-thirds of the power Scottish trio Cantrip, Scotland's unique power trio. This year they return with their fifth studio album. Swirling border pipes, raging fiddle, thunderous guitar and three rich voices blend to create a sound energetic enough to tear the roof off. After 20 years of touring, Cantrip has found a character like no other. Whether a duo or a trio, Dan Houghton, Jon Bews and Eric McDonald eagerly stir the elements in a witches' cauldron, slowly coalescing them into chaotic order. "Their music comes from wild landscapes and wild places of the spirit." -- The Orcadian
