Albums
The Celtic Kin Project was produced during the winter of 2001.
A songwriter, Larry Lawrence met a multi-instrumentalist,
Dennis Engelman, who agreed to produce his songs.
The resulting CD, Mists & Memories was a resounding success.
Band/artist history
(Dennis) I recollect that we met at a small song-writers circle above the ice cream shop off the square in Dahlonega GA, sitting in folding chairs. Larry leaned back and belted out his songs Acapella. I thought they were interesting but needed fleshing out. I enjoyed arranging them.
(Larry) Please understand, except for the Lead Vocals, Flute and Pennywhistles, everything you hear was played, arranged, and produced by Dennis. He took what I heard in my head and let me share it with the World.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
We performed a few times at Coffee Houses, but it was difficult to reproduce the music from the Album live.

Mists & Memories Review
Mists & Memories is the debut release from Celtic Kin, a duo based in Dahlonega, GA. Lead vocalist Larry Lawrence has a deep, resonant voice, and Dennis Engleman provides skillful harmony support, as is well evident on the soulful, accordion-tinged "Fisherman's Prayer." They perform all original material in the Celtic style, which is unusual, as they are one of the few Celtic groups presenting all modern compositions rather than traditional favorite tunes. Where tradition remains in the picture is in the instrumental styling and the song themes about magic ("Celtic Lullaby"), or battle ("Off to War"), or a "Bonny Young Lass." Songs range from the grim "Fiddler's Last Request," about a ne'er-do-well who deserts the army and is caught and hanged after playing one last song, to immigrants displaced by the potato famine in "Move On." They tend toward the grittier, struggling-to-survive side of life, though with notes of hope, as in the song "Laura Lea," where the hard-working young man takes his three years' savings and buys passage away for himself and his love.
