Velvet Arm Golden Hand is a wonderful collaboration of Cape Breton Fiddle tunes performed by Joe Cormier and J.P. Cormier. Accompanied on piano by Hilda Chiasson-Cormier throughout, and Gervais Cormier and Gelas Larade on the live sets, Joe and J.P. weave their fiddle magic in a fashion that will surely get you stirring! A masterful collection of down home music by Joe (Waltham, MA via Cheticamp, Cape Breton, NS) and his Cape Breton nephew (and multi-instrument wizard) J.P.. You can purchase the album online in the U.S. at CD Freedom, a staunch supporter of independent artists. In Canada, you can order it at a number on online sites, starting with JP's Web Store.
