“After their genteel début,
Soundpost and Bridle (2000), Cork brothers Flaithrí and
Eoghan Neff could so easily have settled into the
"seriously talented and enormously respectful" back
row where they'd be guaranteed accolades for their virtuosity
but might have died from the boredom of it all within jig time.
Instead they've ricocheted due north, south and east, bouncing
off a plethora of styles and cultural tics en route. Eoghan's
convulsing fiddle traces shadows where few fiddlers deign to
venture on his own Clockworx, and while the itinerary is
utterly unpredictable and downright precocious, their
willingness to stretch and bend while they've got the elastic
in their pants is something to revel in - for listener and
player alike.”
