Recorded at different locations around the world, KÃla bring their exciting, raw and emotionally charged music to disc with this live album KÃla Alive. From the explosive driving beats of the concert favourite An TiomÃ¡naÃ, to the tender brand new love song Babymouse, this album captures KÃla at their majestic best. The centre-piece of this album is the track featuring Polish chanteuse Kayah Am Reel. Recorded on the night of the Polska-Ã‰ire Festival in Vicar Street, the combination of Kayah's rich voice along with her backing singer Iwona's delicate harmonies, add an otherworldly texture to KÃla's sound. Joining KÃla for much of the recording is flautist extraordinaire, Alan Doherty from the band Aldoc. Alan is the whistle that played the tune on Lord of the Rings and he brings all his talents to this recording, soaring above the top line and improvising behind the backline! KÃla are well known for their innovation and their risk taking and this album is no exception. Three of the pieces were getting their first or second airing on stage and you can feel the musicians thinking on their feet, you can almost see them keeping close eyes on each other making sure that the right part is being played. Stand out tracks are Pota Ã“ir Pot of Gold because we all know where to find our pots of gold! And RÃ³nÃ¡n Ã“ Snodaigh s much loved song Raise the Road - a complete guide to growing up for any parent.
