Celtic Corner: The Chieftains' New Album!

The Chieftains have struck gold again, or so I foresee, with Voice of Ages, due out February 21.  Rather than teaming up with today's best Bluegrass and Country bands, they have taken it upon themselves to collaborate with today's hottest indie bands from all genres: Bon Iver, Carolina Chocolate Drops, The Civil Wars, The Decemberists, Imelda May, Lisa Harrington, The Low Anthem, Carlos Nunez, Paolo Nutini, Pistol Annies, Punch Brothers, and The Secret Sisters will guest this time around.  T Bone Burnett is producer.  This is so exciting!  Congratulations, you've just creamed yourself in excitement.
