Out of His Box - Sandy Brechin (album)

Sandy Brechin's solo album of lively modern accordion playing. He has chosen a great selection of his own compositions as well as some traditional tunes arranged in his own inimitable style. The original material in Sandy's book 'Out of His Mind' can be heard played by himself on this solo album and the band album 'Out of His Tree'.

REVIEWS

'The brilliant box-player from Seelyhoo & Burach, Sandy's playing is dynamite - a very modern approach, but very musical too! The album includes many of Sandy's own stunning compositions.'
Scots Magazine

"Sandy Brechin is rapidly becoming one of Scotland's major league accordionists in his own right. Colin MacFarlane (guitar, mandolin, lapsteel) and Seelyhoo persons Walker and Jones fill in the sound, and together make for a fascinating and entertaining album. Highly recommended."
Bob Walton, Folk Roots
