Uscirà il 12 novembre Chronicles: 60 Years Of The Chieftains, doppio CD + DVD che s’incarica di riassumere al meglio i 60 anni di carriera di The Chieftains.
Formatasi in Irlanda nel 1962, la band guidata dal leader Paddy Moloney, da Matt Molloy e Kevin Conneff per 60 anni ha diffuso la musica tradizionale irlandese in tutto il mondo, collaborando con molti artisti e vincendo numerosi, prestigiosi premi.
Questa antologia audio e video (ma verrà anche pubblicata come semplice doppio CD o doppio LP) è un ottimo modo per fare una carrellata sulla loro storia.
