Drums and Drumlins dates from 2004 and is the band's second formal full length studio release. This is the first Cd to feature the band's revised line up of Roy, Stephen and Dolores and the addition of Paul Marshall on Percussion who joined the band in 2002.
The title track is based on the fact that there are 486 place names in N Ireland that start with the word 'drum' which is gaelic for a small hill or mound. The song features many of those place names.
The chorus rolls off the tongue -
jiggin and a reelin and a paradiddle flamadiddle pleeter platter plump and diddley dee
buckin and a leppin and a different dance stepping and a drummer canna say that by the sea
