Cormier and the Bid's Fionan de Barra produced a sparky,
impromptu flat-picking guitar duel that would have graced
the Louisiana Hayride, and Eggleston's pulsating cello and
vocal contribution alongside Palsdottir bordered on musical
voodoo.
Palsdottir's singing - redolent of both Native American
and Inuit - reinforces the notion that the Faroes might

with Laplanders, and her spiritual intonations on the tenderly
prolonged finale, Foroyar Tune, suggested that the music
was truly in the gods of the Lapp.
