Tales from the Western Union


It's not often that you find a release so obscure that you get to create the album's Discogs page.

But now is that time.  Found in a thrift store, sponsored by a grant from the Key West, FL Arts council, we have Tales from the Western Union.

This is a group that plays Celtic-influenced music with the typical dulcimer, guitar, and fiddle arrangements.  It's well played, but my appetite is quickly sated.
