Sheelanagig release their second album 'Baba Yaga's Ball' tomorrow, and are on tour for the next month. Recorded at Peter Gabriel's Real World Studio, the album features 10 tracks of our best celtic-gypsy-prog-ska-folk business.

Daily Planet banjo player Leon Hunt joins the band on two numbers, 'The Canny Man' and the bhangra-meets-hot-club stomp 'Soup With a Fork'. A former student of Bela Fleck, he has been described by fRoots as "the Jeff Beck of the banjo".

You can hear two tracks from the album here:
