Golden Wing - MM229
A celebration of songs and instrumentals. Songs tell stories of wings of a fairy from an age-old tale, or the wings of a blackbird from a traditional ballad or poem and flight of fancy and imagination; flight from fear; even flight in migration as a metaphor for loss and bittersweet nostalgia.

Music is original and from traditional sources with lyrics and music from poetry of Edna St. Vincent Millet and William Blake, traditional Irish ballads, songs by contemporary singer songwriters- Jessie Winchester and Carla Bonoff. Music highlights both Amy's voice and performances on mandolin and guitar; and with Al's Petteway's signature fingerstyle acoustic guitar- a sound that has become a legend. The instrumentals are a brilliant convergence of Celtic, with hints of progressive bluegrass, rock, country, blues, jazz and classical idioms combined with Amy's fresh new voice in the acoustic music world described as capturing the intelligence of Joni Mitchell, the richness of Mary Chapin Carpenter and the intimacy of Sarah McLachlan.
