Danny Carnahan, Robin Petrie - Cut and Run (1994)

Danny Carnahan & Robin Petrie were a Grammy Award nominated California folk music duo who released five albums in the 1980s and 1990s.

Their first two albums were primarily performances of traditional Celtic music plus some new compositions in Celtic style by Carnahan and Mick Fitzgerald (2) Their third album, "Continental Drift" (1987), was their only release to give Robin Petrie top billing and was their only instrumental album. Despite being firmly rooted in traditional Scottish and French music it received an unlikely Grammy Award nomination for Best New Age Album in 1988.

The final two albums by the duo were primarily original compositions and had little in the way of Celtic influence. Instead Carnahan and Petrie played primarily American folk with country and folk rock influences.
