Dante - Wake by abadgeoffriendship published on 2014-07-02T13:48:14Z “… music that is brave enough to leap the gap between genres…” - The Herald “… this is truly cracking stuff…” - Rock N Reel Dante are pleased to announce the free download of their single, Wake, out now via Stitch Records. Wake is the title track from the critically acclaimed album of the same name released earlier this year, and showcases the band’s ability to instinctively span genres with a flair and panache that many of their contemporaries would be proud of. On Wake the band illustrate their capacity to create traditional Celtic tunes that fit into a modern landscape. Beautifully picked guitars are complemented by the sweeping sound of fiddle and a snappy drum beat, all brought together seamlessly by stirring harmonies as the track builds to a thunderous conclusion. Wake, which was produced and recorded by Frightened Rabbit’s Andy Monaghan, was Dante’s first full length album, picking up wide ranging support from the likes of Beat Surrender, Artrocker Magazine, God Is In The TV, The Scottish Sun, Rock N Reel and was named in The Herald’s Top 50 Albums of 2013. The release of Wake coincides with a number of impressive local and festival live dates for Dante over the coming month as they are due to embark on a Scottish tour which includes a Radio Rapal Session, as well as appearances at the Hebridean Celtic Festival, Belladrum Festival, Edinburgh Festival and Jocktoberfest. Wake is available to download now via Stitch Records. Genre Folk Comment by Musos' Guide Tweeted @musosguide 2014-07-04T12:14:47Z
