Few words

“Ripple in Time” has  received the top CD of 2001-2003 award in the Acoustic Ensemble Category from the Indie Acoustic Project!

“Grounded and influenced by Celtic Music, the mists of Canadian history, and decades of musical experience between them, Tiller’s Folly’s new album “A Ripple in Time” is an extraordinary effort by an exceptional group. In this age of fastfood music, even in the folk field, thank goodness for the music of Tiller’s Folly…songs written with respect for tradition and history, played with virtuosity and gusto, that are both fun and thoughtful.”
– Tom May Producer/host “River City Folk”
