Old Blind Dogs - Five
Who let the dogs out? Five years on, five band members and now 5 albums. The addition of Fraser Fifield on saxophone, border pipes and whistles enhances the already hugely successful sound of the Old Blind Dogs.
Between 1992 and 1998, The Old Blind Dogs featuring Ian Benzie, Jonny Hardie, Buzzby McMillan and Davy Cattanach introduced the world to a new sound in traditional Scottish music. Some have called it "sexy music". The blending of Ian's rich and romantic voice with the groove of Davy's percussion gave the Dogs a sound that had never been heard before, and will likely not be duplicated again.
"Breathing new life into old tunes and more importantly old songs". Folk Roots.
"Old Blind Dogs have created an instantly recognizable trademark sound built around fiddle, percussion, bass and lan F Benzie's commanding voice that is equally capable of moving your heart as it is your feet" The Lemon Tree.
"Innovative, exciting and original..with them the traditional is still alive and well and moving towards the 21st century". The Living Tradition Magazine.
