John McSherry further cements his legacy as a true master of the Uilleann pipes with The Seven Suns. The eagerly anticipated follow up to his 2010 solo debut Soma offers the listener a conceptual musical journey drawing from both traditional Irish jigs and reels as well as from free form jazz improvisation which inform McSherry's unique approach to the pipes. In McSherry's words: \"My love for music embraces everything from these most ancient airs, jigs and reels to the harmonies and high powered, driving rhythms of modern music. I'd like to think of this album as a little melting pot of all the influences on my musical journey so far.\" Guest musicians on the album include Seán Óg Graham (guitars), Michael McGoldrick (flute) and Niamh Dunne (fiddle\/viola). John McSherry is one of the finest exponents of the art of the Uilleann piping in the world. A founding member of Irish super-groups Lúnasa and the now legendary Coolfin, he has been called \"a true master\" by Irish Music Magazine and has taken piping to new heights with his unique style. His sense for improvisation has even been compared to that of the great jazz legend John Coltrane.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Dance of the Síog \u003cbr\u003e1.2 The King of Dal Buinne \u003cbr\u003e1.3 The Atlantean Carrowmore \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Sunrise at Bealtaine Sunset Land \u003cbr\u003e1.5 The Golden Mean the Whisperer \u003cbr\u003e1.6 The Stone of the Seven Suns the Cloghogle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
