With a band called 'The Chieftains'. They're Irish. But I have a CD of them playing Breton music. So much <3.

It's called 'Celtic Wedding' :D

I want recs of this breton folk music you keep rambling on about :D

Well, I've only just discovered Breton folk music, so really the only two recs I can give you are Alan Stivell and a group called Tri Yann. There are many videos of them on youtube, quite a few featuring bizarre celtic-themed sets and crazy nationalist comment threads.

Now if you're after Cape Breton music, I can be a lot more helpful.

I was thinking of the crazy breton nationalists, I think ;)

But Cape Breton is also acceptable.

Also, I've now found the album on iTunes. Which is slowly sucking up all my moneeeeey... and I want the book of folk music they took the tunes from too. Must go check abebooks...
