Ben Doran messaged on Facebook: “When I received the "music only version" of the "The Gaelic Blessing" podcast, I was immediately reminded of one of the most moving arrangements of The Irish Blessing that I have heard - - by Bill O'Connor and Larry Theiss on their – "Traditional And Original" recording.

I am getting ready to have a day off tomorrow and will get to chores and baking for the "Wild Hog in the Woods" usual Friday night concert that we host at a neighborhood center here in Madison. While I am mixing and baking, I'll surely/certainly listen to that "Gaelic Blessing" program in its entirety. Thanks!”

Ryan S. emailed some photos: "Hi Marc. I love the Celtic Women episodes!!

I am currently building trails outside of austin while I listen to the cast.the spring flowers are already out!"

Shel O'Toole emailed a photo: "Hi Marc, As I'm listening today I'm promoting the International Women's Day event I organised for the Ballarat and District Irish Association. The all women trio I play with, Skedaddle is performing on the day. I'm also looking at ways to promote my newly released poetry book Wildsong. I'll be officially launching it at the IWD lunch.

I'm loving the Celtic Women special. There's so many fabulous Irish women singers and musicians. Noirin Ni Rian, the sean - ós singer and chanter, Sandra Joyce singer and bodhran player are two amazing teachers I met at the Irish World Music Summer School - Blas, many years ago. Niamh Parsons & Delores Keane are firm favourites & I love discovering new female artists.

I'll probably go to a session on St Patrick's day and there's a band playing at one of the Irish pubs in the evening I want to see. Sliánte"

Finally, Marc Gunn and the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast proudly endorse Vice President Kamala Harris as the next president of the United States of America. I know these are partisan times. But I firmly believe Harris is the best person to lead our country to a better future for all Americans. She also has an actual plan to make our already robust economy even stronger. She also has a career of protecting the rights of women. Whether you agree or not, please vote in this year’s election. Your vote matters and is how democracy stays strong.

Rene St.Aubin emailed: "When is your next trip to Ireland to get the feel of music and culture"

Robin MacDonald emailed from Wolf Creek, OR: "Hello Marc, I have been listening to your podcast, Irish & Celtic Music, on Amazon Prime. However just within the last few weeks it has completely disappeared! It will not even come up on a search, which is crazy because your music CDs do. How odd. Did you get some sort of notification from Amazon Prime Music that your podcast was no longer going to be available?

I will have to figure out a new way to listen to it and I will! I just enjoyed the convenience as I am not able to stream music much at work (bandwidth) but Amazon Prime Music seemed to always work. Best Regards,"

Robin followed that up with: "Hello Marc, Enjoy your trip! Thanks for getting back to me and for the link. There’s good news though, your Celtic Christmas podcasts are still available on Amazon Prime! Love it always, any time of the year. "

Patrick Rieger emailed some photos: "Hi Marc, My family and I have been busy the past month with a stop at our favorite pub and two renaissance festivals, so I'll be sending a few emails about the incredible musicians we enjoyed.

On August 24, we went to Mullaney's Harp & Fiddle to see John McCann and Hamish, and an hour after they started everyone, including John and Hamish, got a surprise: the third member of the Corned Beef and Curry Band dropped in, Bob Banerjee. Bob is the most incredible fiddle player I have ever seen, and he has an endless number of bad jokes. He is the curry in the band's name, having been born in India. So for a few hours, this great band was back together. Irish musician Mark Guiser was in the audience that night, and was invited onto the stage for a few songs. Two wedding parties then dropped in for some post - reception fun. The energy, excitement and fun hadn't been that high at the Harp in a long time, and my wife and I only left because our son needed to get to bed.

In one photo is The Corned Beef & Curry Band, from left to right, John McCann, Bob Banerjee, and Hamish,

In the other, Mark Guiser and Bob. They were playing Hallelujah with Mark singing."

Cheryl Arvio emailed some photos from Milwaukee Irish Fest: "Hi Marc, Here are some photos from Milwaukee Irish Fest.

First is Talisk (sorry for the poor quality, my phone doesn't like to take photos in the dark), then Lunasa, the Finns and finally a concertina circle with Mary Macnamara, Lexie Boatright who also plays with the Consequences, and Mohsen Amini of Talisk, accompanied on guitar by Charlie Galloway, also of Talisk.

Maybe someday you'll make it there!"

WELCOME THE IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC PODCAST
* Helping you celebrate Celtic culture through music. I am Marc Gunn.

This podcast is for fans of Celtic music and maybe for those who have a hankering to travel to the Celtic nations like I do.

It is here to build a diverse Celtic community and help the incredible artists who so generously share their music with you. If you hear music you love, please email artists to let them know you heard them on the Irish and Celtic Music Podcast. Musicians depend on your generosity to keep making music. So please find a way to support them. Buy a CD, Album Pin, Shirt, Digital Download, or join their communities on Patreon.

You can find a link to all of the artists in the shownotes, along with show times, when you visit our website at celticmusicpodcast.com.

Today’s show is sponsored by Rie Sheridan Rose. Rie writes many things, but one of her favorite things to do is to create a new song and send it out in the world. Thanks to the brilliance of her musicians, they always sound lovely, even though she can't write a note of music.

Rie was one of our generous supporters of our Kickstarter earlier this year. She’s a fantastic writer and songwriter. In fact, I’ve set many of her poems to music. Half of my Firefly album, As Long As I’m Flyin’ was written by Rie. Most of my album Don’t Go Drinking With Hobbits, was written by her as well. She wrote ALL of the lyrics for my album, Pirates vs Dragons. She also wrote the song “Soul of a Harper” which I’ll share today as well.

Follow the link in the shownotes to learn more about Rie Sheridan Rose.

You’ll also find a link to her enormous collection of books and writings on Amazon.

I am all packed and ready to fly to Scotland later this evening. I have one week in Scotland followed by a week visiting my mom in Italy. I’ll try to post a blog on Patreon during the week to let you know how things are going and if we find any new favorite places to hike in Scotland. You can follow our Patreon page for free and get some blogs.

If you are a Celtic musician or in a Celtic band, then please submit your band to be played on the podcast. You don’t have to send in music or an EPK. You will get a free eBook called Celtic Musicians Guide to Digital Music and learn how to follow the podcast. It’s 100% free. Just email Email follow@bestcelticmusic and of course, listeners can learn how to subscribe to the podcast and get a free music - only episode.
THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!

Russell Howell emailed: "Tractoring on our smallhold while listening! Really love the show, it is my companion anytime I am on the tractor or making mead!"

Maura Goodin emailed: "Good afternoon,

I didn't expect to be writing in to a podcast today, but I had yesterday's episode playing while I was working from home today and was pleasantly surprised by the second track you selected, by Keltricity; the set they were playing is all tunes that my dad, John Goodin, composed. He passed away two and a half years ago now. He was a mandolinist and guitarist, who composed a pretty wide range of music from dance tunes to classical pieces; the Classical Mandolin Society of America has preserved his website and blog at https://mandotopia.classicalmandolinsociety.org/, where he collected all his recordings and sheet music (much of it freely available under a Creative Commons license and maintained by CMSA).

I see that Keltricity is from Louisville, which makes sense, as my dad was one of the founding members of the Louisville Mandolin Orchestra before my family relocated to northeastern Iowa; he kept in touch with a lot of the local musicians and the Louisville Mandolin Orchestra actually played so many of his pieces that they ended up recording a CD of them (called, of course, "It's All Goodin"). The tunes Keltricity played in that set are all ones that were in the repertoire for my dad's contra dance band, Contratopia, and that recording featured some of his published harmony parts as well. Contratopia still regularly plays for dances here in Minneapolis where I live, at the same folk dance hall where my own band plays, so we're keeping up the music since he's gone.

I'm not sure if you've ever played Contratopia on the show, sorry - - I definitely haven't listened to the full back catalog of podcasts, though I've been an occasional listener for many years! - - but I know you've played a track by another band that their pianist is in, Brass Lassie, so if you haven't checked their recordings out, you might like to! Their albums all have a mix of original tunes by band members and traditional tunes in Celtic and old - time styles. They used to tour the DC area contra dance scene and play for the Sunday afternoon all - waltzes dances there, so there's probably more than your average number of waltzes on their albums.

Sorry for such a long email! Last bit of fun trivia as a thank - you, the "Maggie" in the tune name from that set is our old family dog, a border collie we had when I was little. (She predated the digital age or I'd include a photo!) My dad wrote so many tunes that he named them after anything he could think of (or just the day he wrote them, if he never got around to a proper name), so there's several named after our various pets. This set has another one named after Maggie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56neWaCahc4

I hope you have a good weekend, and thanks again for the great surprise!"

I have a brand new album that is now on sale. It’s called Dancing With Hobbits. It’s album of all original, hobbit - inspired dance tunes. If you saw the Lord of the Rings movies and heard the music during Bilbo Baggins’ birthday party, then that should give you some idea. It’s fun, upbeat Celtic dance tunes.

It was recorded with Sam Gillogly on fiddle. Sam is no stranger to this podcast, having their own album of Classical Celtic music. But if you’re heard a fiddle on any of my songs in the last 15 years, that was probably Sam.

The album is listed under our band name Dancing With Hobbits. I’ll share music in the coming weeks and later in the show.

If you are a Celtic musician or in a Celtic band, then please submit your band to be played on the podcast. You don’t have to send in music or an EPK.

Eric Guarin emailed some photos: "Meanwhile rather belatedly, but some of what me and my wife Terry were doing last summer while listening to the Podcast:

- Running on the beach near Tarifa, Spain and later in Biarritz, France (picture attached with the beach way in the background)

- Climbing the Rock of Gibraltar (see picture of monkey)

- Hiking a piece of the Camino De Santiago pilgrimage trail, near Bilbao (the picture near the ocean).

- Also managed to see Iron Maiden live, a long held bucket list dream of mine to see a concert overseas. We didn't listen to the Podcast on that occasion ha ha but listened quite a bit while driving around 2400 - 2500 km from Portugal through Spain to the Basque tip of France and then Spain.

We were lucky enough in this life to visit Ireland, summer of 2021. So so so so nice, we LOVED it. BUT due to COVID...no live music!

Someday, we'll manage to get on an Invasion… Slainte,"

Mary L Deal emailed a photo: "Hi Marc, I'm sitting here messing around with and printing 3d stuff listening to the latest podcast (Panxty Caper #664) and heard, again dang it, about this year's trip and was wondering if you know if you will be going back to Ireland next year. I would really like to join you on one of these trips. I went to Ireland around1995 with my Mom and would like to share that beautiful place and the people there with my daughter. Sincerely,"

I WANT YOUR FEEDBACK
What are you doing today while listening to the podcast? Please email me. I’d love to see a picture of what you're doing while listening or of a band that you saw recently.

Email me at follow@bestcelticmusic.

Robin Morales Reyes sent photos from Mexico: "☘️ Sainte from Mexico, Marc!"

Ken in Portland, CT emailed a photo: "Marc, my bagpipe band played several gigs , one of which was at the Portland CT Ale House pictured here. I am next to bass drummer second to the right wearing the brown driving cap inflatable leprechaun"

Mitchell Dobrenen Family emailed a couple photos from Greenville, SC: "He prefers to lie down to listen."

José Teixeira emailed: "Hi Marc! I have started listening you podcast for some time now, a bit by accident when I was searching for music podcasts. For a long time I've been attracted by Celtic culture, that has influenced by some way the culture of northern Portugal, where I was born. My wife, though she was born in the south of the country - its a small country : - ) - also enjoys Celtic art, and suddenly our eldest son was playing Galician bag pipe, what came by a surprise because there's no tradition of instrument playing in our families.

By the way, we now we live in Sintra (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sintra). Usually, I listen to you and the good music that you share during the weekend, while I take care of our garden or during my chores.

About the end of Google Podcasts, there's a quite good alternative that I have been using at least for the last couple of years. It's called AntennaPod (https://antennapod.org/) and I sure it can help some of your android listeners. Obrigado pelo teu bom trabalho (Thank you for you good work). José"

I had two messages come in about Gretna Green after I mentioned it in episode #671.

Shel O'Toole wrote: "Hi Marc, It was interesting to hear you refer to Gretna Green. My knowledge of it was as a place people eloped to. A quick search of Google confirmed my memories. It was interesting to discover Gretna is a town built during World War 1.

The village of Gretna Green is still thriving and it sounds like a great place to visit. It is certainly on my list of places to visit should I get to fulfill my dream of going to Scotland.

I discovered in the past couple of years my maternal grandmother’s family is from Ayrshire in Scotland. They came from a village called Coylton.

I look forward to hearing about your whiskey tour and seeing photos of Scotland.

I’m really enjoying today’s show #671

Thanks for all the great music Marc.

Sliãnte"

Wayne Myers wrote: "Hey Marc, I was listening to episode 671 while playing soccer today and heard you mention the Scottish village of Gretna Green. There is a fantasy author named Linzi Day who lives there and has her book series set there. I know she is amenable to answering questions, because she answered mine.

Her book series is The Midlife Recorder series, which starts with Midlife in Gretna Green. Love the show. Slainte."

Mary Lynn Deal sent a message on Patreon: "Hi Marc, I'm doing some 3d printing and office work at home while listening today. Still enjoying every minute. Have a wonderful day, Slainte,"

Rod Nevin commented on Patreon: "Lovely collection of music! By the way Marc, I have to tell you because I know you would want to know, the tune title for Arise & Go has “Strathspeys” and reels, and the correct pronunciation for strathspey is “strath’spay” … last syllable being what Bob Barker always reminded us to do our pets. 😎"

Danna Hotmar emailed a photo.

Christopher Patrick of FitzBlarney emailed a photo and wrote: "Hello, Marc! What a weekend! I personally hosted my annual St. Patrick's (Eve) party and had house FULL of revellers for food, drink, music, and fun! But Sunday, On Saint Patrick's Day itself,

my family band, FitzBlarney, played out live to a great crowd at Gentile, (Pr. 'Jentilly,') Brewery, in Beverly, MA. A small, family - run operation open to families, kids and even dogs! Just like a proper parlour!

Big crowd, lotsa fun. I spent it surrounded by friends and family, music, beer, and laughs. Couldn't ask for better.

Attached is a shot of us playing that afternoon!

Hope yours was as much fun as ours"

There's still an RSS feed easily linked on the website too, so any non - cloud based podcatcher should be able to subscribe too. I recently installed AntennaPod because I'm considering moving from Pocket Casts and I see this show among my imported subscriptions like any other."

Corey Fitch emailed: "Hi Marc, I’ve been listening to your podcast for the past year or so and its been keeping me great company on my drive to work! We had a big family celebration last year. It was our 250th anniversary on our small family farm in New Hampshire—my kids are the 10th generation living on the farm. For musical entertainment, we had the Jordan TW Trio (led by Jordan Tirrell - Wysocki) and they were absolutely fantastic—everyone was up dancing and they ended the night with an beautiful acapella Parting Glass. I haven’t heard them on the podcast yet so I figured I would put the plug in to get them in the rotation. Thank you for everything you do!"

Cheryl Arvio emailed: “Hi Marc, My boyfriend went to an Irish set dance yesterday. Since it was Pride Day in Chicago, he wore your Pride Month with the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast T - shirt to the gathering, prompting several of his fellow dancers to tell him that they, too, are listeners of the podcast!

Just thought you'd like to know you've got fans here in Chicago ☘️☘️🎻🪗😊”

Daniel Ide emailed from Fallbrook, CA: 'Dia duit Marc - I am delighted to officially become a patron of The Irish and Celtic Music Podcast.

I have been a fan of your show since this time last year, and an Irish and Celtic music fan most of my life. I stumbled upon your podcast while searching “Celtic Music” on Sirius Radio.

I played in an Irish Folk music band in college 40 years ago (when The Chieftains ruled and Sinead was kicking ass). We called ourselves “The Rakes of Kilarney”. I was a guitarist and singer back then, today I am a full on percussionist (congacero mostly) with a passion for Latin - Jazz and Afro - Cuban rhythms. This past year I have been practicing my Bodhran playing to a level of session quality performance (thanks to your podcast). My plan is to travel to the West of Ireland in the end of October and session hop my way from Galway up to Sligo and beyond. I will be hitting you up for recommendations as the date grows closer.

I am 5th generation Irish - American. My ancestors fled the hard times In Ireland during the 1870’s, landing in Boston. Very few of them, generationally, have ever returned, myself included. I have been a student of Irish and Celtic history and culture with a romantic notion of returning “home”. My parents have been there a few times, making connections with distant relatives in Castlebar and Derry. I intend to return to the origin point of most of my family, feel what needs to be felt and embrace what ever is to come of it. Ever since I read John O’Donohue’s “Anam Cara” I have been absolutely smitten with my imminent return to the home of my ancestors.

So, as you can see, I am experiencing a delightful homecoming to my ancestral roots, and The Irish and Celtic Music podcast is providing me with a lovely springboard for weekly indulgences. What I love most about your show is your authentic love of the music, and the wonderful new connections being made for Irish and Celtic Music right in our own backyards.

Blessings of Peace and Love to you and your’s.

Slainte,
Daniel"

Happy 4th of July! That’s when our Declaration of Independence was ratified by the Second Continental Congress establishing the United States of America as an independent country. The fight against tyranny is never complete. That was the lesson of January 6th in our country when a failed former president tried to usurp control of our country. Fortunately, he was defeated by law - abiding, just Americans. The threat is still here.

So this week, we’re celebrating Independence Day with Celtic music. The Celts also know what it means to be oppressed by tyrants. We have a whole slew of songs on the topic. Today, we’re gonna share a small sampling of songs of independence and freedom by Celtic musicians.

It’s also officially Plastic Free July. You can help break free from the single - use plastic problem by refusing them in the month of July so we can have cleaner streets, oceans, and beautiful communities. Will you be part of the solution this month?

We had a 4 day celebration of the weekend starting Thursday March 14th with an all Celtic/Irish show with my band "Rose among Thorns" at StableRock Winery & Distillery (a local venue here in Jefferson, Wisconsin). That was followed by my 5 piece string band doing all Celtic/Irish music shows Friday, March 15th@Old Germantown Brewery, Pub & Eatery in Germantown, Wi, an evening show Saturday March 16th@Lewis Station Winery in Lake Mills WI and a Sunday March 17th afternoon show@Lyons Irish Pub in Watertown, WI to cap the weekend. the crowds were great, the beverages and food tasty and music was flyin'. The Celtic podcast was mentioned at each show!

Of note we will be releasing a CD/EP early this summer which we will share with you and the podcast. (our music is mainly American Roots - but we play many Irish and Celtic tunes in our rep) Sláinte”

Today’s show is an all - instrumental podcast episode. I have a lot of great music to share as well as a fascinating observation. In the past, it is the Celtic songs that were voted on the most for the Celtic Top 20. But I was looking at the last few weeks. And it’s the Celtic tunes, the instrumentals, that are dominating your voting.

That is fantastic. So keep those votes coming. But I guess that also means I should do a Celtic song episode in the coming weeks. I’d love to know what your favorite contemporary Celtic songs are. By that I mean, what original songs by Celtic musicians do you love the best?

I have found several songs on this podcast that were covered by other Celtic artists. I might do a show like that in the future too. We shall see. But let me know your thoughts.

Thanks also to our Executive Producers, author Rie Sheridan Rose (www.riewriter.com), and Richard Trest of the Middle Tennessee Highland Games & Celtic Festival (www.midtenngames.com) on Sept 7 - 8, 2024 at Sanders Ferry Park, Hendersonville.

Thomas Michl emailed from the south of Germany: “Hello Marc,

in your last newsletter you ask about personal favourites and I do indeed have a band that I haven't heard in your podcast yet, but that I really like: The Rattling Kind with Eddie Sherlock (Dublin)

I would love to hear them on your podcast. Otherwise, I'm already looking forward to St Patrick's Day with good music from the Irish and Celtic Music Podcast ; - )

Greetings”

Kathy Glasgow replied to my St Patrick’s Day request: “I celebrated by getting my next semester of classes ready while listening to your podcast. I have them on my phone, so I was also listening to them today between classes. “

Ryan McKinney of O'McPub Band: “Marc,

Thank you for all you've done for Irish and Celtic music. We've listened for a number of years and I play in an Irish folk duo with my friend Joe. We've been playing at pubs and wherever else they will take us for a few years now. We are finally going to try and get some of our versions of Irish tunes recorded but not exactly sure where to start. Then I remembered you offer the ebook on digital music. We would greatly appreciate your guidance and suggestions to make sure we think of everything.

Thanks again and hope when we get everything done we can someday hear ourselves on your podcast!

Slainte,”

Hey BTW, the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast is now a proud sponsor of IrishFest Atlanta in November. I’ll have more details in the future.

TRAVEL WITH CELTIC INVASION VACATIONS
Every year, I take a small group of Celtic music fans on the relaxing adventure of a lifetime. We don't see everything. Instead, we stay in one area. We get to know the region through its culture, history, and legends. You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos.

This fall, I’m taking a very small group of invaders to taste whisky and hike the hills and dales of Scotland. Find out if you can still join the invasion at http://celticinvasion.com/

Jackie Wassilie emailed: “So..just listened to my first podcast..it was the absolute fastest hour! Totally entertaining in my early quiet morning hour. Awesomeness!”

Ryan Weyls shared a photo from Wolfe Tones in Norwalk, CT on March 13: “Hi Marc, here's a photo of the Wolfe Tones from what they say is their last tour of the US. In a nod to our modern era, they had a keyboardist playing bass lines and synth strings, and a laptop was visible onstage as well. The Mac might have been for the slide show or a click track, or both. I'd prefer a live bassist but their extra man made it work with his Roland. Have a great weekend.

Patrick Rieger emailed photos right before St Patrick’s Day: “Hello Marc,

Celtic Pittsburgh was part of the Saint Patrick's Day parade for the first time this year, and it was also my first parade on such a scale. I was part of two tiny parades for other occasions, but nothing like this. Pittsburgh Public Safety estimated 200,000 spectators would be lining the 1.4 miles route, and it certainly looked it. Emerging from under a railroad bridge to reach the start of the parade route and seeing the sides of the streets of downtown Pittsburgh packed with so many people cheering and whooping was a thrill. Some people were even watching from a parking garage.

We had seven people marching. Three members marched, as well as some people who volunteered to march with us. Two people were from the Lady MacGregor Lodge #73 of the Daughters of Scotia based in Youngwood, PA.

Besides groups honoring Irish and Celtic culture, there were other groups in the parade, including a Ghostbusters fan group.

The radio program who interviewed Susan Borowski and I, The Saturday Light Brigade, asked people downtown for the parade to call in and let them know how the parade was going, so I called while we were waiting in the staging area.

I have attached some photos, most to show the size of the crowd, and one of the reviewing stand.”

Steffen Röder emailed a photo from Munich, Germany: “Hi Marc! This St. Paddys I had to be in the hospital in which ill spend the next three weeks due to a chronik pain issue. I was able to sneak in a (light) pint tho and have my banjo with me. I sang some tunes at the nearby lake with noone but some frogs around and enjoyed the moment. I hope you had a good one too! Greetz from Munich, Rusty!”

Gerald Guinn of The Secret Commonwealth emailed a St Pats photo: “Hi Marc! Glad you had good St. Pat's/Birthday! The Secret Commonwealth did as well. We had shows on all three days of the weekend, culminating with our 31st anniversary St. Pat's show at Cedar Glade Brews, in the "city of our birth", Murfreesboro, TN (see attached pic) Now it's on to finishing up album #5! We hope to have it out in early summer. Best!”

Brenda Richardson sent a photo for St Patrick’s Day: “I walked with a group from the YMCA in the 5K St Patrick’s Day Race in Colorado Springs. We heard some Celtic music along our route!”

Michael Maloney emailed a St Patrick’s Day photo: “Morning Marc! Happy belated St. Patrick's Day and Birthday! I feel like I'm still recovering. I play solo at Hugh O'Neill's in Malden, and several shows with my bandmates, The Boston Harbor Bhoys (Waltham Sr. Center, Medford's Ford Tavern, Framingham Elks fundraiser, Quincy's Assembly, and Boston's Green Dragon).

So many songs, so many memories. I loved playing Hugh O'Neill's, where a table of young people requested The Saw Doctor's "N17" and ran out from their tables on the refrain each time to shout out "and the grass is green!".

To the Sr Center in Waltham where the ENTIRE room of 100 people got all the hand - claps right on "Wild Rover" by the 2nd refrain, and the beautiful emotions expressed from our rendition of Danny Boy.

To guests at the Framingham elks getting up to do all the dance moves to "The unicorn song", to seeing old fans from the South Shore of Boston that we haven't seen in 4 years requesting "Raglan Road", to jumping around The Green Dragon with my harmonica and tambourine leading hand claps on 'Finnegan's Wake" getting the whole bar clapping together.

Agh, it was all so wonderful, went through a range of song styles and eras in the Celtic music catalogue, and it was wonderful connecting with audiences from the 20's up to their 90's, who all appreciated the music and experience in their own ways.

It was one for the books! “
