Fingerstyle guitarist Dylan Fowler straddles multiple worlds, collaborating closely with musicians from Finland, India, Turkey, and across the Celtic diaspora. On this solo album, his first in more than a decade, he brings it all back home, finding his inspiration in American jazz (Keith Jarrett’s “My Song”), Brazilian pop (“Joy”), Bulgarian folk (“Erghen Diado”), and Indian classical (“Six Thaal”) while remaining close to his folk-trad roots in Wales, where he’s lived most of his life.
