Vince Conaway wrote on Facebook: "When I started playing faires in the nineties I was told that I'd missed the high water mark of the eighties. Now I see people in the community romanticizing the nineties and oughts and can't help but think that we need to focus on the present and remember that we're currently living someone's golden age." 10:15 - NEW TO IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC: BEST OF 2022 PLAYLIST There's a lot of great new music added to our Best of 2022 playlist on Spotify.

We chat with Rob, the brewmaster at The Lost Druid Brewery. He's gonna share with you how he names his beers. I love how he names them and the pop culture references that he adds to many.. Including the little known secret behind the name Doctor Strange. 30:27 - “Famine” by Doolin' from Doolin' 33:21 - STORY OF WHEREVER I MAY ROAM Originally, I was gonna talk about the famous Scottish song, “Loch Lomond”. It seems I already talked about “Loch Lomond” in show #199. So instead… I fly to Texas in April to perform at Sherwood Forest Faire. My daughters are making the journey as well. It got me thinking about when I first started flying. I don't remember. I was talking to my dad about it. He reminded me that during summers when we lived in Maryland, he would drive us to visit his family in East Texas. His parents would then drive us halfway to meet my mom's parents. We'd stay in San Antonio for a while. Then we would fly home. It was me and my brother. On an airplane together. Fast forward to 1985, the two of us flew to Italy to visit my mom. In 1989, I flew all by myself for the first time to visit my mom in Italy. Talking to my dad, I realized my love of traveling began in part because of those trips. Especially on the airplane. Visiting Europe! It made a HUGE impact on my life. I flew to Hawaii to visit my dad and step mom during college. The next vacation, I flew back to Italy. We drove up to Germany, France, and even saw the Floriade in The Netherlands. I love traveling. So it was fitting when I met my future wife in 2009, that she too had a love of traveling. We love to roam. However, it wasn't until 2013 or 2014 that I finally wrote my first good love song for my wife. I had written others. But they never went anywhere. The song was called “Wherever I May Roam”. I remember it was fairly easy to write too. The music I based on how I had been playing “Gypsy Rover”. It had a very pleasant rhythm that I tightened up. One of my big goals was to write a song that was a call and response. That is to say, something that I could sing and audience members could respond to the lyric I sang. But it's the story that made it a love song. It was created in 3 parts. The first was my life before I met Gwen. My life was a bit rough before her. I was in a band. But I did not feel like I was growing as a musician or as a person. I was also wanting to find love. I had to make a change. So I broke up the band. I moved from Austin to New Orleans. I tried to start over. I learned in high school that every new year, I could sort of change my persona to be more like someone I wanted to be. Rather than who I was. But it required a radical shift. Ultimately, I learned that I couldn't change who I actually was. But I did learn that the radical shift could do wonders for your life. The break up of the Brobdingnagian Bards was sad for many of our fans. But the move to New Orleans… it kickstarted my new life. I started writing new music. I recorded a ton of new albums. It launched Celtic Invasion Vacations. It also got me out on tour. At a little house concert in Reston, Virginia, I met my wife. That's what the second verse is all about. The final verse… Sometimes when you're a musician in a band, you start playing music together, just music. A groove catches on. Groove seems like the wrong word. Because it's not about rhythm, it's about playing in sync, together. It just matches. It works. As a budding singer and songwriter, I wanted something that was more than just a groove. I wanted a song. A beautiful song… that leads to other songs. That's what “Wherever I May Roam” did. I wrote my first love song for my wife. It told our story. But it also blossomed into children and more adventures than I could have possibly hoped for. And likewise, this song also was the true start of my rhythm and folk musical style on the autoharp. The thumb lead, as they said at the California Autoharp Gathering. 39:03 - Marc Gunn “Wherever I May Roam” from Selcouth 42:01 - NEXT TIME - We're talking about Kilty Pleasure and we have a story from The Muckers.

If it wasn't for America, the traditional music of Ireland might no longer exist. America saved Irish music. That's the premise behind my 2014 album I recorded with Jamie Haeuser, How America Saved Irish Music. I expected more of a backlash when I released the album title that was a parody of the book How the Irish Saved Civilization. I only got one nasty email. I started immersing myself in Irish music in 1999. I learned a lot about Irish culture and music over the years. The Irish were forced out of Ireland. Their music traveled around the globe. It integrated with other cultures. Eventually, it found its way home. When it did, it had changed. Blossomed and grew, yes. But changed as well We all know that the jigs and reels are the backbone of Irish tunes. But underneath it, I heard something fascinating. It was the similarities between Irish and American rhythm. The guitar was the clue. American guitarists changed music around the world. Listen to any guitarist playing Irish music and you will hear American rock-n-roll as its rhythmic backbone. Irish guitar is rock-n-roll guitar underneath a reel and a jig. This makes a little more sense when you think of Irish songs like "Johnny I Hardly Knew Ye". That's the Irish version of the American Civil War song "When Johnny Comes Marching Home". The Irish took a great American melody and gave it their own twist. In a sense, How America Saved Irish Music is nothing new. Jamie Haeuser and I fused American rhythm, jazz, and blues to Irish immigration songs to create our own exploration of the Irish musical diaspora. You'll hear the entire album this episode of the podcast, plus an interview with Jamie Haeuser.

Sometimes the things that matter most to us don’t matter as much to those we serve. The Bridge is still one of my favorite albums. It features one of the best songs I feel like I ever recorded—“Peggy Gordon”. And yet no one talks about the album. There are many reasons why this may be. But one may be it just hasn’t found its audience. They say anonymity is the greatest obstacle for musicians. So I’m gonna share this album in its entirety to reach a few more people.

Once again, I'm sharing one of my albums from start to finish. The Irish diaspora to America brought the happy gift of Irish music, informing and influencing folk, ragtime, blues and even jazz. In this unique collection of original and traditional music, Celtic American musician Marc Gunn leafs through music known, remembered and new to find common themes, melodies and memories. The Bridge is just that – a connection not only between Irish and American music, but also between Marc Gunn’s previous work primarily in Celtic music and his roots in folk, and newer influences of blues and jazz for this New Orleans-based musician. Above all, the Bridge expresses Marc Gunn’s deep love for the music of both his home and where his heart resides. CREDITS released January 15, 2010 Produced by Rich Brotherton. Marc Gunn, autoharp and vocals. Jamie Haeuser, bodhran and background vocals. Samantha Gillogly, fiddle. Bethany McLyr, flute. Rich Brotherton, Guitar and octave mandolin. Cover art by Marc Gunn.

A Companhia conseguiu o Amuleto, mas a Floresta cobra o preço pela bagunça que eles aprontaram! Olá! Na Mesa Predestinada 13 segue a Campanha de Loose Threads. A Companhia obteve com Miriva, a Fada Madrinha, o Amuleto de proteção contra os passáros que atacam Elda. Mas depois de todas as bagunças que a mesma provocou na sessão anterior, eles não poderiam sair impunes, e a Floresta decide cobrar o preço pela bagunça. Quais deles irão sofrer? Algum deles poderá alcançar em definitivo o Desejo do Coração? Ou estarão eles fadados a sofrerem no meio da Floresta? As Fábulas são perigosas, e o poder da Magia é algo temeroso. Nada é sem um preço nas Fábulas e a Companhia tem que pagar o preço pelo que fizeram.

Tracing the journey of the ballad “The Gypsy Laddie” from the British Isles to the southern United States, we see one of the most fascinating examples of the way folk songs adapt to the singer, and the time and place in which they are singing. This episode on “The Gypsy Rover” features a rare Alan Lomax recording, in part one of two on descendents of the old Scottish folksong. Original recordings featured in this episode (in order of occurrence): - “The Wandering Folksong: The Gypsy Laddie,” featuring George Armstrong, 03/30/1979 - “Seven Yellow Gypsies” performed by Paddy Doran, and narration by Alan Lomax, from BBC documentary Alan Lomax: Ballad Hunter, circa 1958 References: - The English and Scottish Popular Ballads, Vol. IV by Francis J.
