Second Annual Irish Concert at WDVR-FM
I'll be performing on a triple bill with Jodee James and my fellow Celtic Sunday Brunch host, Ed Saultz. Ed will be accompanied by renowned local uilleann piper Terry Hartzell. Tickets are flying out the door faster than customers at a pub without beer; seriously, folks, if you want to attend you'll want to get on it ASAP. Full info... |
Celtic Sunday Brunch
This could well be my best show yet. I've got an interview with Leo Moran of the Saw Doctors.... And you've got something better to do? I don't think so. Full info... Looking ahead, the Hunterdon Fiddlers (and me, their humble string-strummer) will perform live on Eileen Fisher's show on Sunday, March 17 (Saint Patrick's Day). Be sure to tune in! Full info... |

Irish Night at Spain 92
My friend, Sergio Seijas, is the owner of Spain 92, and the mastermind behind the best Robert Burns Supper I've ever attended. He is a Galician Spaniard, which believe it or not makes him a Celt. He's also an amazing restaurateur and host, which makes this an event you won't want to miss. Joining me for this one will be Marty Guilfoyle on accordion and Paul Morrissett on fiddle; as long as I can keep up with them this will be a fairly amazing show. Full info... |
Performance at the Clinton NJ Library
Dig if you will this picture: Judy Minot on piano and Paul Morrissett on fiddle, accompanying me on new arrangements of songs from Chance of a Start as well as some Irish classics. But wait; there's more: The Hunterdon Fiddlers-- like, five of them!-- will be joining us for some blistering reels and jigs, with harmonies and arrangements that yer great great great granda never could have imagined. This is free, but reservations are required, and I'm pretty confident that there won't be an empty seat, so this is another one you'll want to get on quickly. Full info... |
