It’s time to fly! Even though just a few hours after leaving, the absence of my family is keenly felt – but hopefully they’ll be able to come with me on a future Celtic Invasion! Travel Tips: When adding Luggage Tags, always put one on the outside, and one on the inside! They’re flimsy, and […]

I Forgot… Celtic Invasion of Donegal, Ireland 2015
I packed early this year. Two days early, in fact. It felt good having nearly everything ready for my Celtic Invasion of Donegal and the Giant’s Causeway. Over the next two days, I grabbed and made lists of various items I “forgot”. Mind you, I still forgot my iPad. But I feel good about […]
Parable of Mumford & Sons
I have a lot of awesome news to share with you in show #28 of The Celtfather podcast, including a new band, an interview, a 10-year anniversary and a new feature–Celtic Music Spotlight featuring The Killdares. My Hobbit Drinking Songs show was a success and I also take a look at Mumford & Sons’ new […]
Album of the Month – Soul of a Harper
In 2003 and 2004, I had a bunch of songs I had written and recorded that were not yet part of the Brobdingnagian Bards. They grabbed a different side of my music from the more comedic stuff that the Bards were doing at the time. I also wanted a place to showcase my autoharp skills. […]

When time is crunched, deciding what tasks to prioritize and what projects to execute becomes a more immediate question – with all of this in mind, I’d love feedback on what you think about my proposed future podcast […]
Please Make Another B-Side!
One of the bands I enjoy is Mumford & Sons. A while back I posted an article saying that their latest album Babel just sounded like a B-Side to Sign No More. My blog said there was nothing new, and the songs were less memorable. I can’t find the article. I guess I must’ve deleted it when I fell […]
Music Influences and Inspirations
I found this old blog post in html format on my website. I thought I’d reshare it now. It already seems a little out-dated, but oh well. I’m not entirely sure when this podcast was first published.. As you may have realized by my strange pick of instruments, the autoharp, I was late bloomer to […]

This week, I thought I’d compile 7 awesome Celtic songs from my Celtic music collection, plus, a special bonus from my Celtic Invasion Vacations. If you enjoy, please share this page. […]
Celtic Geek Bands of 2014
I posted my pick of the Best Celtic Folk Music of 2014 a few months back on the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast website. It’s a good list, comparable to my Best Celtic Folk Bands of 2010. I thought about doing another Best Celtic Folk Bands list, but since last year, was the first year I really […]
