Celtic Sunday Brunch is a two-hour radio program that broadcasts every Sunday from 11am to 1pm US ET (GMT -4), on the air at 89.7 FM and streaming live at wdvrfm.org. I host the first show of every month (and the fifth, when the calendar falls that way). I keep Facebook and Twitter open during the show; feel free to send thoughts and requests! Next shows: |

Memorial Day Weekend at Stage Left: Last year I played for Stage Left on Independence Day; this year they apparently decided they couldn't wait that long. (Good thing, too. I was getting tired of playing hard-to-get.) If you've never been to a sidewalk barbeque at a four-star restaurant, now's your chance. |
 |
Colonial Park, Frankin Township, Somerset NJ: In the fall, I had the honor of opening for poet Paul Muldoon at a Franklin Township Cultural Arts Council event. This spring they've invited me to perform at their jubilee. |
Seisiuns
I do my best to attend these, but you'll have a great time regardless.
Frenchtown NJ: Second and Fourth Sundays at the River Blue Cafe, 1pm to 4pm.
Lambertville NJ: First and Third Wednesdays at Mitchell's Cafe, 8:30pm to 11pm+
Remember: Cancellations happen—please check in before heading out!
House Concerts
Spring has sprung, and (hose me down) I'm just full of wacky ideas, like this one: How about I bring a band of merry men and/or women to your home for a private party or concert?
Contact me ASAP!
CDs and Downloads
All of my recordings, new and old, solo and collaborations, are available for purchase at all performances or online. Remember: Members of my mailing list get a 20% discount on everything I have for sale online at Bandcamp. Join the mailing list to find out how.
