Pipe Makers Union, LLC - Our Musical Partnerships

PMU is developing partnerships with musicians around the world playing Carbony^™ flutes, whistles, didgeridoos, bagpipes and other instruments. If you are working a Carbony^™ instrument let us know!

OMNIA draws upon the traditional roots that have brought forth all music to bring an otherworldly and deeply moving performance to the stage that is unique in this age of bland pre-programmed commercialism.

Keltia was born in 2002 at the folk festival 'The Anthinoises'. Initially a personal project of Frédérique Henrottin. 'Keltia' became a formal band in 2004. Keltia performs original songs written in French, inspired by Celtic mythology, Greek and Latin, accompanied by Celtic harp and didgeridoo.

"Rapalje is a bit of a wonder. The first we ever saw of them was one of the band's members in his mother's skirt in a pub in Groningen called '1672'. Then we started seeing them around the sessions in O'Ceallaigh Irish pub in Groningen. And next we knew it, these lads had developed themselves into wonderful musicians, with a keen ear for a good tune or song, and a style of their own. Rapalje hasn't taken the easy road, but have managed to become accomplished, entertaining musicians and a craic of a band, without losing their enthusiasm, their originality and their own, inimitable style."

Joseph Carringer has been playing an Australian Aboriginal didgeridoo for over a decade and a half, using it as a deep meditative tool in his personal shamanic journey as well as a therapeutic instrument for his clients. Joseph also incorporates a unique combination of Traditional Chinese Medicine philosophy, Ayurvedic Chakra philosophy and traditional Shamanic healing techniques into his sound therapy practice.

Much of the material's given a playful or funky contemporary twist, with contrast provided by the odd starker a capella song or unaccompanied tune. It's a varied but harmonious blend of reinterpreted traditional Scottish songs and tunes, and songs and tunes written by Ruaridh. Thoughtful arrangements and harmonised vocals whilst playing elements of lead, rhythm and percussion give Tattie Jam a sound that's unmistakable, and surprises new listeners with its size and scope.
