Selcouth means, “when everything is strange and different, yet you find it marvelous anyway.” My wife found that word. She found a whole bunch of old words with cool meanings. But selcouth is the one that stuck out to me. It just seemed to fit me and my music. I play Celtic music with a […]
One of the things I love about Ireland and Scotland is the proximity to water. I love the ocean. I love swimming, diving, the sound of the crashing waves, the feel of the water. I love seafood. I love boats, the beach, and exploring tide pools. But I also love the stories. Enter this week’s […]
“Selkie’s Life (Back in the Ocean)” lyrics and music Marc Gunn Performed by Marc Gunn From CD: Come Adventure With Me I’m going back to the ocean I’m gonna feel the sand I’m gonna roll in the waves Like a seal swim away from the strand I got to live among men I swooned the ladies […]
In 2006, I started Song Henge as a way to pay the bills of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast. That service comes to an official end in December. This is a brief history of Song Henge. You could join Song Henge for $12-60 per year. Every month, I sent an email newsletter. In it […]
One the popular things to do in Austin during college was tubing. We could head down to San Marcos, climb into a tube, and leisurely drift down the river. I remember doing it only once during the 18 years I lived there. Yesterday, my family went Kayaking in a similar fashion. We headed up I-85 […]

We are staying 20 minutes from the bonnie banks of Loch Lomond at the Castle Invergare in Helensburgh, Scotland. There’s a lot going on in the world right now. Covid […]
Tomorrow is the big day. Coffee with the Celtfather. Season 9. Okay that sounds a bit more dramatic than it is. I started the show in 2017. Instead of the TV definition of seasons, I’m sensibly calling a “season” either Spring or Fall. Nevertheless, this is the 9th season. I’m getting better at doing these […]
I have a busy week ahead. I made a decision that Friday is my deadline for three recording projects. That doesn’t even include the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast that’s coming. First up is Selcouth. I’m already 9 months behind on releasing this album. So it’s time wrap it up. I have PLENTY of songs […]
A new single with the Brobdingnagian Bards and a Bards EP. Last chance to get my Firefly CD on vinyl. A short, new Kickstarter coming? Coffee with The Celtfather returns for its 9th season. Do you really have to put on a show to draw a crowd? It’s all on my monthly update, Celtfather Music […]
