Established in 1997, SilverBranch is a Celtic folk music group based out of Fort Myers, Florida. We started out as a group of friends who enjoyed getting together to sing traditional folk music of the British Isles. Over the last couple of years we have written, arranged and have now completed the recording of our own original music. In Celtic traditions the Silver Branch, taken from the apple tree, was the emblem of the Bard. It was said to produce a magical music that was so entrancing that it removed all cares and worries from the listener. This album is our invitation to a bardic circle, a warm and safe place around the bonfire in which to share the ancient lore, inspired by tales of heroism, romance and wonder. With imagery drawn from the myths and legends of ancient Wales and Ireland, these arrangements blend vocal, guitar, psaltery, recorder, harp and drums into a dreamscape evoking mist shrouded memories of an age long past. As we enter this circle, we reach our hands back to that past, and extend them forward to the future, offering these songs, chants and rounds to all who feel the spirit of the Celts calling to their hearts and souls.
