Welcome to Pub Songs & Stories, the virtual Public House for Celtic culture and change through music.
I am Marc Gunn. I play Sci F'Irish music. I want to take you on an adventure. I'll share the stories behind my songs as we explore pop culture media through the lens of Irish & Celtic music. You will have fun and sing along, and maybe get a far too real glimpse of yourself.
We are just two days away from the big Invasion of DragonCon 2013. This year, I
will be performing with the Brobdingnagian Bards for a weekend of
Celtic Renaissance insanity. You never what's gonna happen.
In preparation, I decided to record another Pub Songs Podcast
live on Google Hangouts. I am thrilled to report that...
Today's show is dedicated to The Clancy Brothers and Tommy
Makem. If you love Celtic music and you're not familiar with the
group, you're missing out. They are one of the reasons Gunns & Drums is recording an
album called "How America Saved Irish Music". They're a shining
example.
This is my first attempt at recording a live Pub Songs Podcast
on Google Hangouts. I'm gonna try and put a new show out every week
or two with minimal editing. I'd love your feedback. Let me know of
a song I should play each week. Yes, I want to hear your
suggestions! Post them in the comments.
Sci Fi Pub Songs & Stories is the audio edition of Marc Gunn's newsletter. You'll hear the audio liner notes for the songs he records, both traditional Celtic songs as well as his original rhythm & folk songs inspired by pop culture through the lens of Irish & Celtic music. Have fun and sing along to celebrate Celtic and Sci Fi culture through music.
