New Album ‘The Lucky Smile’
Rachel’s new album ‘The Lucky Smile’ is now available to buy online from her website www.rachelhair.com. Supported by the Scottish Arts Council and produced by Angus Lyon, the album features Rachel’s trio of harp, guitar (Paul Tracey) and double bass (Andy Sharkey) along with guest appearances including Gaelic singer Joy Dunlop, jazz violinst Graham McGeoch, drummer Scott Mackay and percussionist Paul Jennings.
An eclectic mix of traditional and contemporary material (much written by herself), tinged with influences ranging from jazz and funk to classical and bluegrass and her Scots-Irish heritage, ‘The Lucky Smile’ is the follow up to Rachel’’s highly acclaimed solo album ‘Hubcaps and Potholes’.
With an official release date of the 23rd of March from then on you will be able to buy it from shops, online retailers such as amazon, and digitally through iTunes. But if you want to get your hands on it earlier than this, you can do so by buying directly from Rachel via her website.
