I was re-reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone when a story crept into my mind. Professor McGonagall was there in tabby cat form while London wizards celebrated the defeat of Voldemort. But what were the London cats doing? As I sang “Rising of the Moon”, the answer came to me. I recorded this in […]
“Johnny Jump Up” seemed the perfect song to start the evening with when I was in Lisdoonvarna, Ireland last summer, because I was drinking a lot of Bulmers cider (known stateside as Magners). I learned the song from Christy Moore. So it’s one of the few versions I’ve heard in 3/4 time. “Johnny Jump Up […]
Firefly is was a brilliant TV Sci Fi Western by Joss Whedon.

I released in my poetry book, Bella Fillioct, and my friend Lorella Loftus liked it so much, she asked that we do a recording. When the Renaissance Festival Podcast began, I thought it would […]
A lot of people asked about recordings from my excursion to an Irish pub in Lisdoonvarna, Ireland last summer. I led twenty friends into a sing-a-long of Irish songs to a raucous evening. I grabbed a dozen of those tracks and put them together as an MP3 album on Soundclick. “Soul of a Harper (Live)”Listen: […]
