CELTIC MUSIC NEWS
=========================

Greetings Celtic Music Lovers,

It is a busy time for me. In two weeks, I hop an airplane to
Ireland for the last Brobdingnagian Bards Tour of Ireland. I
can't wait too. Good friends, beautiful landscape, wonderful
people and great drink. Guinness, stock up cuz here I come!


IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC MINI-PODCAST
Ten days on the road with unknown internet connections, I am
trying to make sure my podcasts are all up-to-date. I just
finished show #50 and the shownotes for #51 are done as well.

That preparation got me thinking about the summer. July marks
the 3-year anniversary of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast
and also the PodCastAwards. I thought a good way to celebrate
AND pimp the podcast was to put together Celtic Mini-Podcasts.

The podcasts will be short shows that highlight specific
topics throughout the month of July on a much more frequent
basis. I'm still working out the details, but the ultimate
goal is to spread the word about the podcast and to win Best
Podsafe Music in the PodCast Awards.

So keep an eye open next month when I share more details
this three-year anniversary promotion.

GOING FOR BROGUE: IRISH PUB SONGS AND SEA SHANTIES
A while back, I threw together a few recordings of Irish songs
for my Irish Songs & Lyrics website. Those recordings are now
on a new compilation CD called "Going for Brogue", and I just
got word that the CD was shipped Friday. Stay tuned!

"Whiskers in the Jar: Irish Songs for Cat Lovers", my latest
CD combining my love of Celtic music and cats should be shipped
any day now as well. So everyone who pre-ordered the CD, it
will be here soon!

You can pre-order both those albums here:

Thanks for being a part of the Celtic MP3s Music Magazine.
I hope you find a ton of great bands and continue to support
independent Celtic music for many, many years to come.

Slainte!
- Marc Gunn
