I play the eight-and ten-stringed Irish bouzoukis (adaptations of their Greek forebears), but the music on this new CD is all original…for lack of a better niche market description, I’ve been calling it “SWAP" (Songwriter World Acoustic Progressive). Since my instruments are double-strung like mandolins, I found that I got the best sound by removing two of my erstwhile-doubled strings, thus getting a clearer signal. The EBow makes for a very unique sound on this bouzouki-centric release. My thanks to you all for such an amazing product!
