Acoustic Lenahan is Piping Hot Tom Lenahan & the members of his internationally acclaimed Celtic rock band Lenahan unplug their amps & take acoustic instruments in hand in a spirited, sensitive album of traditional and contemporary acoustic Celtic and American music called Contrary Motion, that has received airplay in 20 foreign countries, the United States and Canada, and selected by Amnesty International as a featured album in their membership publication. Contrary Motion features the vibrant, hauntingly beautiful piping and evocative tin whistle playing of Tom Lenahan, who also plays guitar & bodhran on the album, in addition to the expressive fiddle playing of Lenahan fiddler and rhythm guitarist Clarence Ferrari. Guest artist Mary Rafferty of Irish women's super group Cherish the Ladies joins the band on button accordion. Contrary Motion introduces the listener to an expanded dimension of well known North American Celtic musician Tom Lenahan, as well as a personal return to his Irish and American folk roots, which have influenced the music he writes & performs. The Irish American Post states, "War pipes never sounded so smooth...Lenahan is a masterful music maker." See for yourself why the Nottingham Evening Post says, "Quite simply the most exciting band this year, anything else was rather flat by comparison," why Sing Out! says,"Powerful...poetic," and why the Iowa Press-Citizen says, "Bright & sunny...a sweet & lovely soundtrack... Contrary Motion proves Lenahan's magic works just fine when the power's cut off." Check out the artist's website: http://www.celtic-rock.com Track List: 1. Geese in the Bog 2. Lanigan's Ball 3.
