It all started in August 2007, Betse Ellis and Tim Matthew sat behind the Famous Spiegeltent during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, trading Scottish and American fiddle tunes when Betse said to Tim “we ought to do this more often”.
These concerts will feature both traditional Scottish music and its American counterparts, and American music that influences current day Scottish musicians (and vice versa). Named after a traditional fiddle tune and song, “Across the Sea” celebrates an interchange of musical ideas from the past and present. The tour features some of the finest musicians from all over the world. From Scotland, Kris Drever (Traditional Instrumentalist of the Year – 2008), from Ireland Eamonn Coyne (Salsa Celtica) and from the US Betse Ellis, Caleb Klauder & Sammy Lind.

I have just purchased a candle with wood wick, and I am wondering if extended use will ruin the candle and if so is there anything that I can do to avoid that?
Hhmm, odd comment. I think you may have the wrong website here…
But one thing’s for sure, The Tune Up Podcasts, you can’t hold a candle to them…

You have hit the mark. It seems to me it is good thought. I agree with you.
