Stay ConnectedEvery song has a story, every episode is a toast to Celtic and folk songwriters. Discover the stories behind the songs from the heart of the Celtic pub scene. This is Pub Songs & Stories by Marc Gunn, The Celtfather.
All songs are used with permission of the artists and copyright holders.
I've released 22 albums since I started recording solo in 2004. I have so many albums that I wasn't sure what to put on my Celtic Geek compilation that I giveaway free to everyone who signs up to my mailing list. I decided to give one song from my first 20 albums.
I've often wondered if I should've just put together a "Best of Marc Gunn" album instead. The problem is picking those songs. I have a LOT of albums. Well, I finally sat down and thought about my most-requested songs over the years by the most listeners. Today's show highlights those songs.
I asked members of the Gunn Runners Club too and decided to add a few of their requests as well. You can find full shownotes and subscribe at http://pubsong.com/

In 2005, I crowdsourced my first album. It was Irish Drinking Songs for Cat Lovers. I raised over $9000 to fund the production of the album. People LOVED the idea of cats and Celtic music. So I crowdsourced the next album, Whiskers in the Jar. I only raised about $6000. The album has sold about half as well as the first, and I only recently recouped the expense 8 years later. Yet, the hardcore fans of the albums have repeatedly shouted, "We want another cat CD!" Thus came the title Sea Shanties for Cat Lovers.
I REALLY want to make it happen. But I'll be honest. I don't know if more than a handful of people want the next album to happen. I have a mailing list at catdrinkingsongs.com. I asked them to promote the album. There was a short period of shares. Then it all stopped. The Facebook continues to grow at snails pace. I'm not sure this is something I should put my time in.
I've decided that there's just one way to find find out if you're truly passionate about these CDs--Kickstarter.
Kickstarter is an all or nothing website. If you don't reach your goal, you get nothing. If you do, you get to make it happen.
I've decided that I need at least $15,000 to make this album properly. That'll allow me to hire a producer and record the songs with full instrumentation, just like the last two albums that were produced by Ari Koinuma and Rich Brotherton, respectively.
Would you like to see this album happen? Sign up at catdrinkingsongs.com.

Women are under-represented in music in general. Even more so when it comes to pub songs. I'll be honest. I can't think of one women from Ireland focusing on pub songs. In fact, the first place I think of women singing drinking songs is at Renaissance festivals. And so, you'll note several bands in this show from there. Get FREE MP3s at http://pubsong.net.
Do you have a favorite female musician or band? Post in the comments.
Pub TalkThere are new Irish & Celtic Music Podcast t-shirts. Once again designed by James McDaniel II, these feature 2 Celtic women playing fiddle and flute. It reads "Reel Celtic Music" and of course the podcast name. These shirts are limited release. You can only get them in 2017. So order soon.

This is a show of Rebel Songs. From traditional Irish rebel songs to rebel songs inspired by Firefly, you'll hear a fun mix of songs to get your blood boilin' with music from Marc Gunn, Derek Warfield & The Young Wolfe Tones, Brobdingnagian Bards, The Kilt Lifters, Crikwater, Marc Gunn & The Dubliners' Tabby Cats, Bedlam Bards, 3 Pints Gone, Kilted Kings, Ed Miller. Listen and share. Then subscribe for 5 Free MP3s at http://pubsong.net/.
Before we get started, I want to let you know that my next album of Firefly music is now being funded on Kickstarter. It's called "As Long As I'm Flyin'". You have until May 18, 2017 to make a pledge if you want a physical CD. After that go to FireflyDrinkingSongs.com.
I started compiling this episode at the beginning of 2017. I planned to use it as a platform to share my anger and frustration with the Trump administration's assault on civil rights, health care and the environment. But I decided not to. Overall, that's not what I do musically. Instead, I'll let the songs speak for themselves.
Politics is a huge part of Celtic culture. I heard a quote by Irish songwriter Frank Harte on the Irish Music Stories podcast (episode 2) that said, "Those in power write the history. Those who suffer write the songs." For that reason, many of the best traditional Irish songs are rebel songs. They are the songs of people who suffer.
When I started playing rebel songs with the Brobdingnagian Bards, we played them, not for the politics, but because they were powerful songs.
This show is dedicated to rebel songs in general. The first half has some more traditional rebel songs. The second half are the not-so-traditional ones. And I promise to leave my politics out of any discussion.
Pub TalkCeltfather Tuesdays. You might notice that this show came out on Tuesdays. I'm trying to better manage my content. I put out the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast on Thursdays. So every Tuesday, I'm gonna plan to post new content, whether it's the Pub Songs Podcast, the Celtfather Music & Travel or new videos on YouTube. Look for them on Tuesdays.
My next show is at Johnnie MacCracken's on May 13. The show starts at 7pm. So if you want me to keep coming out to Marietta, Georgia every month, come to this show! I'm also bookd for InConjunction and GenCon in Indianapolis.
Do you want another show on Concert Window? Post a comment in the shownotes.

If you're new to this podcast, I want you to think first if you enjoyed that first song. Because if you don't like my music, you won't like this show. So stop listening now.
I have released over 20 studio albums since 2004. I thought it would be nice to make playlists of my music, when I realized, I have been publishing this podcast since 2005. This is the perfect place to create a Marc Gunn playlist. So over the next two hours, you will enjoy lots of my music, intermixed with a small sampling of my favorite bands from the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast.
I say small, because there's a lot of great music, and I also am aiming for a drinking songs feel to this show. Because that's kinda what I do. Sci Fi and Irish drinking songs, merged together in harmony.
But don't worry. There's a bunch of trad tunes in the mix as well...
Pub TalkListen to more St. Patrick's Day music on the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast. There are four hours of St. Patrick's Day music specials there. Plus you can download "17 Free Celtic MP3s for St. Patrick's Day" from some of the awesome indie Celtic bands featured on the podcast last year.
You can find more St. Patrick's Day Party Music on my website I dedicated to St Paddy's Day. You'll find St Patrick's Day lyrics, playlists and even a podcast dedicated to St. Patrick's Day.

Hallelujah! The year is almost over. It's almost time to evaluate my successes and failures. But not in this show. This is Marc Gunn Radio with a highlight on a recording I made several years ago of "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen. I'm trying to decide if I want to re-record it or use this version for a future album. I'd love your feedback at pubsong.net.

This show is dedicated to the music of science fiction conventions. I have quite a lot of it. If you love cons as much as I do, I think you'll enjoy this episode of Marc Gunn radio.
Over the years, I have found science fiction conventions to be my ideal musical venue. All the Rennies who are working at Renaissance festivals attend my shows. All the geeks as well as the Celts who love geeky things are there. That's why I continue to book shows at cons. Get 5 Free MP3s when at pubsong.net.
