Blink (Video)
The Doctor Who episode “Blink” is about missing out. There’s an alien race called the Weeping Angels. They are as hard as stone until no one is looking at them. They live off of potential energy. Their touch takes away all of the days you might’ve had and transports you back in time. You miss […]

Promo Tip: Promote Local to Facebook Groups
I was chatting with the manager at Ironshield Brewing in Lawrenceville, Georgia about how to promote my monthly shows. I’m not good with social media. He shared what’s successful with them. They tag artists and use hashtags to get that extra bit of visibility for shows. He suggested I do the same. That got me […]
Leaving of Liverpool (Video)
In 2017, my family traveled back to New Orleans for a crawfish boil with friends. We stopped at a park and then the Audubon Butterfly Garden & Insectarium for my girls to enjoy some butterflies.

A Random Bit of Life WITHOUT an Algorithm
Do you know what I miss? I miss the early days of the internet when an algorithm didn’t tell me what to look at. It’s not because back then I learned SEO and charted really well on Google. It’s because when I went looking for Celtic music on Google, I found some interesting websites. Not […]
Is This a Better, Easy Video Idea for Musicians?
I want to release better videos for my YouTube channel. The problem is I’m not a great videographer. I’m also not a great editor. But I enjoy making the videos. I’ve come to the conclusion that my Livestreams are not getting me anywhere. So I’m gonna pull them from the channel. Make them unlisted. Or […]
Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea (Chicago Video)
We took a trip to Chicago back in 2018 when I performed at FuMPFest. I captured some wonderful video from the trip. I set it to music from my album How America Saved Irish Music that I recorded with Jamie Haueser. Look how small my girls are!
