Are You Willing to Host a House Concert in 2013 in Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, or North Florida?
I’m starting to book shows for 2013. January is always a light month for me. So I thought I’d see if anyone was interested in hosting a house concert. I need to stay fairly close to home. So I’m looking for house concerts in Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee or North Florida. Basically, no more than eight […]
Knock on Wood, It’s nearly done!
I have my first rough master for Not Every Day Is St. Patrick’s Day! I almost can’t believe it. The album is nearly done. But then I shouldn’t say that until is… *knock,knock,knock on wood* Unless something changes, I’m looking at twenty tracks of traditional Irish and Scottish songs, most of which I have parodied […]

Celtic Christmas ain’t coming early this year
I decided to pull the breaks on my Celtic Christmas compilation cd, Keep the Celtic in Christmas. Almost all the tracks are approved. I have most of the WAV files to master the album. The only problem is promotion. I really feel like the album will benefit immensely from hiring a publicist. But to do […]
Two Holidays with Nothing in Common
I’m a bit swamped right now. So a quick update. I finished mixing all of the songs for Not Every Day Is St. Patrick’s Day. A big woohoo!!!! I’m really psyched about this because the album sounds great. It still needs mastering though. I’ll try to finish that this weekend. But with a song order […]
