As far as the tracks/downloads go.be aware that 'techno ate the musicians' is the bonus track from the 'strange but true' CD.don't be scared.the rest of the album isn't like that!



It's a look at some of the many collaborations Kathryn has been involved with over the years, most of which were never recorded, and which many people are unaware of. There are collaborations with Catriona Macdonald, the Brazz Brothers, Andy Sheppard, Karen Tweed, Folkestra, Katie Doherty, The Demagogue Reacts! Pipelines and Corrina Hewat.I suppose the whole album is a celebration of friendship and tunes! - - -
