Thread Name: Folk Songs In Movie Soundtracks
Subject: RE: Folk Songs In Movie Soundtracks
A lot of films made on Scottish and Irish themes have trad music performers in them, or providing tracks:
Brothers McMullen soundtrack was done by Seamus Egan and friends.
Capercaillie performs in the film 'Rob Roy' in addition to contributing to the soundtrack along with Davy Spillane, I think.
Bravehart had Chieftains didn't it?
And what about that Jodie Foster movie 'Nell'? Didn't that have trad music too?
I'll think of more later, I'm sure.
