Named after somewhere in West Yorkshire (I can't find it on any of my maps, so it must be very tiny). Eden's Bridge are Sarah and Richard Lacy, David Bird and Jon Large, with a little help from their friends - who include Terl Bryant and Troy Donockley of Iona and panpipe maestro Simon Bernard-Smith, so quality is assured. David and Sarah and Richard collaborated to write most of the songs on this album. The Project also includes Michael Card's masterpiece "El Shaddai" and "How Long O Lord" by Barbara Woollett and Chris Norton. Not everybody is kin on applying Celtic style instrumentation to well known worship songs but this is beautifully executed stuff by a talented UK band.
