People Like Me on CD

2009 release from one of the most exciting singers on the Celtic scene. Her vocal talent and her understanding approach give her an ability to cross over diverse singing styles making her comfortable performing with a variety of artists. Blessed with a voice of great beauty and purity, names like Boo Hewerdine, Jim Malcolm, Brendan Graham and Del Amitri's Justin Currie are among those who's songs Alyth performs whilst Alyth's band feature names such as Aidan O'Rourke (Lau) and Ewen Vernal (Capercaille). Boo Hewerdine 's 'A Smuggler's Prayer', about the plight of drug mules, is particularly moving. 'People Like Me' is a heartfelt plea for tolerance in today's Scotland, penned by Del Amitri's Justin Currie. Compellingly catchy even on first hearing, it provides a stirring end to the record.
