It's confirmed: The Devil's Tailors Scottish Fiddle Band has its second member.

Joining the line-up is guitar veteran Anders Johansson, formerly of Ceili's Muse, SixMileBridge, and The Maggie Drennon Band (to list the Celtic outfits he's worked with). An extremely masterful guitarist and respected studio engineer, Anders will bring incomperable depth and experience to the band, along with his skills at arrangement, and an in-house recording capability.

Anders and I will begin working up our tune sets very soon, and will be arranging and rehearsing through the spring and summer of '04, hoping to begin performing (and recording) in the fall. Anders will mainly focus on rhythm guitar and Irish bouzouki, though expect him to take the lead melody line often!

Now we're looking for one, possibly two more bandsmen (or -women), to bring some flute & whistle and percussion into the mix, and some vocal talent for the occasional song.

Look for more updates here.
