Welcome to Dun Vegas
''Welcome To Dun Vegas'' is the third album by Scottish Celtic fusion group Peatbog Faeries, recorded in a cottage on the banks of Pool Roag, near Dunvegan, on the Isle of Skye, and released in 2003 on the band's own Peatbog Records label as the label's first release. The album was seen as an experimental work, like their previous album ''Faerie Stories'' although in a very different style. The album was composed and created by Peter Morrison (pipes, whistles), Innes Hutton (bass guitar), Thomas Salter (electric and acoustic guitars), Leighton Jones (keyboards), Roddy Neilson (fiddle) and Iain Copeland (percussion). Copeland also co-produced the album with Calum MacLean.
The album features a new direction for the band, differing from their progressive-tinged début album ''Mellowosity'' (1996) and the subsequent electronica-tinged ''Faerie Stories'' (2001). The album features a wide range of influences, such as alternative rock and African music, as well as experimental effects including backwards drumming and a track based around a kitchen cooker timer. It also marked the first time the band used vocals, and whilst only a small amount is featured, five tracks include vocals, including guest contributions from vocal group The Veganites on the album's last two tracks. Some of the tracks from the album are about fictional historical stories. The album was released in April 2003 to positive reviews from critic, and the accompanying live tour also featured positive reviews. The track "Wacko King Hako" was often played live at the band's 2008 live shows, and was also included in the 2013 compilation album ''Larry Kirwan's Celtic Invasion''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Larry Kirwan's Celtic Invasion )〕
==Background and recording==
With their second album, ''Faerie Stories'' (2001), Peatbog Faeries changed their previously progressive rock-tinged Celtic fusion and recorded an album with no rock and strong electronica, house and dub influences mixed in with their Celtic instrumentalism. The album was recorded in 1999 but was not released in 2001 due to record label difficulties which lead it to be released on both Greentrax Recordings, who released their first album ''Mellowosity'' (1996), and New York-based Astor Recordings.
These problems lead to the band creating their own record label, Peatbog Records, and set for recording in a cottage on the banks of Pool Roag near Dunvegan, Isle of Skye, Scotland. The band installed a studio in the cottage and recorded the album over three months. The band described that after installing the cottage, that they "had a party" for three months, "occasionally recording as () went".〔''Welcome to Dun Vegas'' liner notes.〕
