Artist History Within six weeks of its debut in May 1998, SixMileBridge's first CD Across the Water hit number six on the Celtic radio charts as reported to Crossroads magazine. The band immediately followed up with unabridged -- a mix of live and studio performances -- in September 1998. (Both CD's are available through Goosetracks - the Loose Goose online catalog.)Now in its permanent line-up, SixMileBridge presents No Reason--its latest CD featuring rare performances from each member. No Reason quickly became a must have for anyone who likes their Celtic bold and old at the same time.
