	Frets - TONY MCMANUS' NEW TRADITIONS
		On the album’s ten tracks, which are a mix of traditional tunes and original pieces, McManus’ playing weaves complex, harmonically rich patterns with the flowing lines of Genty’s bass.
		McManus’ guitar style is chameleon like: It can bring to life an Irish bagpipe tune on one track and then just as easily channel the Scandinavian hardanger fiddle on the next.
		This is no easy feat, and it’s even more difficult considering the effort McManus makes to capture the soul of the original instrument.
