Marc Gunn’s Debut at the Saxon Pub
The first show of my tour went amazingly well. It was at the Saxon Pub. Over forty people showed up to see me perform from local Rennies to cat lovers, some podcast subscribers and even family. For a Sunday afternoon that is usually pretty dead at the Saxon, it was a smashing success. The one […]
Marc Weeklies: Hope in the Form of a Musical Tour
My cat Tiziano is gazing at me lazy-eyed. He was daydreaming before I took notice of him. I haven’t had time to do the same as I finish a ton of work perparing for my first solo tour. It was a produtive day. I finished recording the Pub Songs Podcast with special thanks to Summer […]

Marc Weeklies: I-Con Fairy Tales
I’m just back from a great weekend in New York at I-Con. I confess I was a little blown away that people knew me. I’ve played that convention with Brobdingnagian Bards for, what, seven years now, but I never really realized that people knew ME individually. It was a bit of an eye-opening experience to […]
Free MP3 – A Lil’ Bit of Love
