notes
Whether it is driving folk dance rhythms, spooky waltzes and polkas, or exotica from the far side of the world, The Brunos deliver living history, and traditional tunes from around the globe all with their own California spin.
It can be circus music, pirate music, music for a masked ball or a rowdy Morris ale, and it will make you want to dance, the way people have danced for thousands of years.
This tight-knit band, composed of members of the glorious Pipe & Bowl Morris Men,
have been playing together for more than a decade. They are:
Alex Bernstein - whistles
Jay Doane - fiddle
Brad Dow - flute & clarinet
Tim Meighan - cittern
Dave Uebersax - sackbut
Jude Darnell - fiddle
Larry Klein - octave mandolin
Brian Dallarmi - fiddle
Kevin Hughes - mandolin
Kevin Patrick Fanning -field drum
Jason Adajian - D/G button accordion
The CD also features George Winston playing harmonica on
Off to California & Ramblin' Sailor, and his solo harmonica
rendition of Hey Diddle Dis.

author: Doug BurgerGreat CD! If you like folk music you'll love Bloody Knuckles! Check out their other CD Caper Diem, also excellent!
Lively, authentic traditional folk, well played.
author: Malcolm (in England)I enjoy listening to English Morris music at least as much as I enjoy watching the dancing, and the Brunos capture the traditional sound extremely well. Their authenticity settled my decision to buy this CD, and I haven't regretted it.
good songs, good performances, good CD
author: T.Good songs, good performances, good CD. Only cavil: the drums are mixed a little loud (for me). Pleasant songs to have running through one's head. Recommended.
Wonderful! This is a great way to spend a morning. Or an afternoon.
author: DawnI am so glad I bought this. It is absolutely wonderful. Bloody Knuckles is a collection of very well done folk songs that just bring a smile to my face.
