What a Great Dragon Con 2021!

Dragon Con is an interesting creature. I’ve performed their for 19 years. It’s huge. It’s overwhelming. And I absolutely love it. But this year, I was concerned. It’s a pandemic year. The Delta variant of Covid-19 is still on the rise. Far too many people are still unvaccinated. As crazy as it sounds, many people […]

Marc’s Musings: Don’t Mean to BUG You

“I sure hope it doesn’t look I’m being completely annoyed by all the bugs.” That’s what I was thinking for this week’s Coffee with The Celtfather. I have worked from home since 2005. One of the highlights of doing so is that I can get out of the house every now and then. The problem […]

Marc’s Musings: The Selkie Life

Coffee with The Celtfather Returns with Season 9

Coffee with The Celtfather Returns with Season 9

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 […]

Two Albums to Wrap Up This First Week of August

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.
