Every Thursday at noon is Coffee with The Celtfather. I sing five songs and give you a nice break from your workday. The show moved to YouTube officially last season. I looked at the numbers of viewers and realize it’s growing. That’s amazing! I love these shows. Not only does it help me keep my […]
Irish Drinking Songs. That was the name of a cassette I found at Half-Priced Books in Austin, Texas in 1999. It was just sitting there as I was checking out. A half dozen copies sat in the basket next to the register. I picked one up and added it to my order. It changed my […]
It never fails. I made big plans for the re-release of St Patrick’s Day. The day comes and the album is listed as explicit. Sigh. It was totally my fault. I accidentally listed one track as explicit. So the album has that tag now. I’m hoping CD Baby can get it fixed. But they say […]
I opened my Spotify Artists app first thing this morning. I check it to see if my music is getting played. When you open it up, the latest release is listed. I expected to see “Kilkelly, Ireland“. Instead, I saw my re-released album, St Patrick’s Day. You can get St Patrick’s Day here. In 2012, […]
Greetings I’m finishing my final projects for the year. Here’s what’s on my plate. There’s a new Celtic Christmas Podcast coming out on Sunday. The Celtic Top 20 episode of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast is scheduled for the last day of the year. I hope to have the first two episodes of the […]
It’s not easy writing and recording music. You want something that people love. You want it to resonate. And there’s no way to know if it ever will. I’ve spent well a few years trying to get a studio recording of “Wherever I May Roam“. This year was the big one. I got an engineer, […]
I went for a run this morning with some friends. We liken ourselves to the Fellowship from Lord of the Rings with a hobbit, elf, and ranger. So many times when I go running, something about our fellowship sticks out and strikes me as funny. Our hobbit’s birthday was this morning. He decided we would […]
We adopted two kittens last year, Pompeii and Emmie. They are adorable. But it’s always amusing when cats do something bizarre and unexpected. Both our cats are in the bad habit of chewing up boxes. But this weekend, Pompeii got bored with simply destroying boxes. Now he’s digging inside them and pulling stuff out. He […]
Greetings Gunn Runner I am planning an official re-release of my St Patrick’s Day CD in January. The first single from the album is “Whiskey in the Jar”. Andrew McKee, The Irish Bard added recorder to the song. I remixed the instruments that were already on it. It sounds a ton better. The song was […]
So far things are going pretty well for Dragon Con 2020. I had several shows. They were fairly well-attended. We made some tips, sold some CDs, and even made a few new fans! Wednesday was the Brobdingnagian Bards Dragon Con Pre-Show Concert with the Filk Music Track. It was a fun show. We worked some […]
