What's the Rumpus? is a wild party of an album, full of colorful characters and stories, flavored with that unique up-beat Gaelic Storm celtic/world music sound that gets you dancing and never lets you go. With instruments from African drums and Irish bagpipes to trombones and cajun style accordions, Gaelic Storm has created a three ring circus of acrobatic songs, swirling tunes and galloping rhythms. What's The Rumpus? is as satisfying as a good pint of Guinness; a care-free and infectious feel-good time.
