SOUL OF A HARPER

An autoharper’s spiritual wandering through Celtic songs. Beautiful and fun Celtic folk songs to celebrate your Scotch-Irish heritage. Are you Scots-Irish, too? After six albums with the Celtic Folk MP3 Superstars, the Brobdingnagian Bards, Marc Gunn decided to create a solo album based on his most-popular solo recordings from 2000-2003 that he named “Soul of […]

Fairy Music

A couple years ago, I was chatting with a fellow autoharper, Alan Horvath, who made the comment that the autoharp was the most-Elven instrument he could find. I LOVED that comment. Maybe it’s my thing for elves, but it got me thinking. For the longest, I’ve wanted to create an album of elven music or […]

Wedding Ceremony Music

I played the autoharp this weekend at a house concert. I really love my instrument. It has such a beautiful sound.

That’s the […]

Cat Lover’s Companion CD Update

Just finished another session with Ari Koinuma. He’s producing my Irish Drinking Songs, The Cat Lover’s Companion CD. I don’t remember if I mentioned it here. This album is not nearly as fancy as the first CD. It’s just me on vocals and autoharp and Ari on backup vocals and guitar. So no wailing fiddles […]

Music For A Wedding

I drove to Houston last night for the wedding of one of my best friends, Stacy. She asked me to play a song in the wedding too–“Frog Kissin’“. The problem… I forgot my autoharp! I don’t know how I forgot it. So don’t ask. I was really spacey. For some reason, I grabbed my laptop […]
