Beautiful, highly melodic and original Celtic compilation featuring acoustic guitar, flutes, grand piano, violin, cello, oboe, harp, accordion and a stand-up bass. This Ireland-inspired album is extremely soothing, even more so than Scotland: Grace of the Wild. Across the Water stood at number 1 on the world music radio charts for an amazing eight straight weeks in 2015.

Famed flutist Brian Dunning of Nightnoise makes a guest appearance on three tracks. Juilliard violinist Jennifer Curtis plays on all 12 tracks. Nashville pianist Joseph Akins offers three stunning arrangements for the album.

Other acclaimed musicians on the album include accordionist Brandon Bush, bassist John Brown, cellist Nancy Green, oboist Melanie Wilsden, harpist Anita Burroughs-Price and Leslie on guitar, Celtic whistles and flutes and keyboard.
