THIRTY LITTLE TURNS

US band TEMPEST have been a feature in the US music scene and the world folk music circuit for 30 years this year and are still going strong. 13 studio albums have been crafted by the band so far, in addition to countless live performances. As a solid nod to their long career their latest album is called "Thirty Little Turns", and was released by US label Magna Carta Records at the start of 2018.

Tempest is a veteran band on all fronts, and they have a sure confidence in what they do that shines through on all levels on this album. While not an album that will expand any musical boundaries, this is a high quality production through and through, and a production that merits a check if you enjoy folk rock in general, and in particular if you tend to enjoy bands of this kind that bring in dominant elements from Irish, Celtic and Scandinavian folk music into this context.
