   "Stramash"

   I am informed that the Orkney Festival is upcoming and has a fine list of   
   performers.   
      
   I'm especially interested to see 'Stramash' listed.  Last I heard,   
   they broke up years ago had never cut an actual record.  I'm only   
   slightly familiar with Anne Neilson - on "Folk Songs of North East   
   Scotland" but am struck by truly extraordinary ballad singing.   
      
   McNaughton's brilliance pops up here & there (eg the Hamish Tribute) but I   
   regret I have too little of his and never caught him live either.   
      
   Can you tell me who is in the group these days and if they do have   
   any CDs out?   
      
   Thanks.
