I’m starting a podcast. ( There I said it! )

The first two episodes will be available from the 8th of June. Each month on the 8th you’ll get two new recordings of Irish folk songs which will be available as both an audio podcast and as a video on Youtube. They’ll be mainly new versions of popular Celtic songs, ballads or Irish pub songs plus some of my originals in the folk style, maybe. The show will be 10 minutes long with a short introduction and the high quality audio of the songs from each episode will be available from www.themusicalpint.com which is my bandcamp page for the time being.

Video version. –

The video version will be available on my Youtube channel as part of The Musical Pint Playlist.

This week I decided to sing compositions of mine which are poems of WB Yeats pulled off the page. It’s been quite a while since I sang these WB Yeats poem-songs so I really got a kick out of performing them for you yesterday. If you missed it then the shortcuts for the poems are all here and under in the YouTube description/comments. The Album Whorls is available exclusively on Bandcamp as a download at the moment. The album versions have lots of extra instruments and there are some extra Yeats poems which I did not play live on this occasion. So do check it out.
