There's something timeless about the blending of the human voice with the ring of acoustic instruments. It's timeless enough to reach around the globe from Ireland and England to the foot of the Rocky Mountains, and to inspire the musicians of this Colorado acoustic-based band Lalla Rookh. Lalla Rookh starts with traditional material from across the ocean - ballads, jigs and stories of romantic adventures - then adds a fresh and vital energy to music that invites passion and celebration.
