BlueStem Jazz Presents
Atlantic Road Trip is an international project combining prominent musical voices from Europe and America, exploring the evolution and fusion of traditional indigenous folk musics from Scotland, Ireland and Slovakia, and their historical coalescence through the medium of contemporary jazz and improvised music. The project also draws upon intertwined musical paths of European folk traditions and their historical interplay with music from Africa, South America, and beyond. Co-led by Chad McCullough (USA), Miro Herak (NED), and Paul Towndrow (SCO), the band’s international journey began with a virtual concert at the 2021 Glasgow Jazz Festival, and continued with subsequent European tours in 2022 and 2023 with performances in Edinburgh, Glasgow, The Hague, Rotterdam, Leiden and Antwerp. Their debut album ONE (released internationally on Calligram Records) explores folk traditions filtered through the lens of 21-Century improvising musicians. Recorded in Glasgow during a 2023 tour, the band will tour in support of the release with a three week long tour through the United States. During that tour, the band will also premier their first large-scale work Over Mountain, Under Sky, featuring Miro, Paul, and Chad with a full jazz band and string orchestra.
Each musician has their own story to tell, both musically and culturally. Compositions, arrangements and improvisation distil into a story-telling musical narrative that reflects and combines music’s evolutionary journey and its ability to shine an honest light on the history of humanity as well as the present day human experience As such, Atlantic Road Trip presents a unique, ‘multi-angle’ take upon historical world events including Colonialism, the Transatlantic Slave Trade, The Highland Clearances, World Wars, and the rise and fall of the Iron Curtain - all of this reflected in the melding of folk music traditions within, and outside of the jazz idiom. Indeed, the importance of cities such as Chicago as a cultural crucible in both the conservation and evolution of Celtic music, is to be recognised and celebrated. One can point to the efforts of people like Francis O’Neill, Chicago’s Chief of Police at the turn of the 20th Century, whose efforts in writing down and obsessively documenting the music played by Irish and Scottish immigrants, played a huge role not only in cementing the traditions into American culture, but in making the music, and it’s associated folklore available on the worldwide stage.

Reviews for "Enhance the Aesthetics of Your RV Bathroom with Aqua Magic Style II Water Valve"
1. John - 2 stars - I recently purchased the Aqua Magic Style II Water Valve Exchange and it has been nothing but a disappointment. Firstly, the installation process was extremely complicated and time-consuming. I had to hire a professional plumber to get it properly installed. Secondly, the water pressure control is erratic. One moment the water flow is too weak and the next it's too strong. It's incredibly frustrating to have such inconsistent water pressure. Overall, I regret buying this product and would not recommend it.
2. Sarah - 1 star - I am extremely disappointed with the Aqua Magic Style II Water Valve Exchange. Not only was the installation process a nightmare, but also the product itself is of poor quality. After only a few weeks of use, the valve started leaking, causing a huge mess in my bathroom. I contacted customer service for assistance, but they were unhelpful and did not provide a satisfactory solution. Save yourself the trouble and avoid buying this product.
3. Mark - 2 stars - The Aqua Magic Style II Water Valve Exchange did not meet my expectations. While it claims to provide water conservation, I did not see any noticeable difference in my water usage. Additionally, the valve occasionally gets stuck, making it difficult to turn on and off. This is a major inconvenience and defeats the purpose of having a water-saving valve. I would not recommend this product if you're looking for reliable water conservation.
4. Emily - 1 star - I had a terrible experience with the Aqua Magic Style II Water Valve Exchange. Not only did it take forever to arrive, but it was also missing crucial parts for installation. I had to spend extra money buying the missing parts from a local hardware store. Additionally, the valve started malfunctioning within a month of use, causing water leaks and damaging my bathroom. The poor quality and lack of customer support make this product a complete waste of money. Stay away from it.
5. Alex - 2 stars - The Aqua Magic Style II Water Valve Exchange does not live up to its claims. Despite advertising itself as a water-saving solution, it did not significantly reduce my water consumption. The water pressure control is also highly unpredictable, sometimes resulting in very weak or overly strong water flow. The overall design and build of the product could be improved for better functionality and durability. I would not recommend this valve exchange for those seeking reliable water conservation and control.
