I have a show Bandcamp on Thursday, January 12, 2023 at 7 PM, and I have super special guest–my daughter, Inara. The show opens with Inara singing songs with me backing her on autoharp and guitar. She has a 6 song set. It includes a traditional Irish song. A song that I wrote about her. […]

My friend, Nancy Flynn, sent me a couple hobbit-themed song lyrics a decade ago. The first track, “Christmas in the Shire”, is still one of my favorite songs on Celtic Christmas Greetings. I finally recorded her song “Yuletide” last year. It is such a delightful song. It evokes so many memories and a wonderful feeling […]
❄️ Greetings! I had a very productive start to the week. That’s fantastic, because there are just 11 more days until Christmas and just over a week to complete stuff if I’m to have a relaxing holiday with my family. I’ll get back to it shortly. In the meantime, I have a Joyful Celtic Christmas […]
