Anybody who enjoys the music of the iconic Stan Rogers or early Gordon Lightfoot and hasn't heard their (Tiller's Folly) 2008 release, Stirring Up Ghosts, is missing a major treat.

“Stirring Up Ghosts” is a happy marriage of solid, fascinating content, along with exceptional, world class musicianship. It is more than history, more than entertainment, more than great songs with well written documentation; this project is an example of how inspiring and listenable good art can be, while still maintaining its integrity and power. Rhodes scholar or student, stockbroker or statesman, you will find yourself listening to it again and again.

NPR’s River City Folk

Dig up a baker’s dozen of historical stories about colorful characters from British Columbia. Mix in some whiskey-soaked drinking choruses and a couple railroad songs. Polish them to a shiny sheen with bluegrassy harmonies, Celtic mandolins, and slick Nashville production. What do you get? The latest record from the acoustic-folk group from Vancouver, Canada called Tiller’s Folly.

Tiller's Folly celebrate the 150th birthday of British Columbia and the 200th anniversary of Simon Fraser's Historic Voyage

Tiller's Folly present their new CD, "Stirring Up Ghosts: Songs and Stories of Historic British Columbia," featuring 10 selected tracks from previously released CDs, along with 2 brand new bonus tracks: The Ghost of Simon Fraser and Down at Gassy Jack's as a special package to celebrate BC's 150th anniversary and the 200th anniversary of Simon Fraser's historic voyage. The CD comes with a 32 page booklet with stories and pictures about the songs.

The songs and story-telling present insightful portraits of the people and events that helped shape our Pacific Canadian province, British Columbia.

They begin with the earliest fur trade explorations, through to the legendary gold rush that led to British Colonization (1858). The songs then carry forward to the province's inclusion in the Dominion of Canada and through to mid 20th century British Columbia.
