Here's where you'll find me online this week! I'll accept any St. Paddy's Day live learns on the Sing Song, singing about the Birds & the Bees on Youtube, I'll be away during the day on Tuesday, so no recording stream, but I'll TikTok in the evenings. I'm looking forward to kicking of a week of The Cultural Exchange organized by @saxdragon and @joyceleemusic on Saturday morning!

Don't get me wrong. I don't actually use alcohol at all but I like this #song
Vilma Jää Humalahullu (The raving #drunk girl) 
I just bought tickets to her #concert. She combines #finnish #FolkMusic and #popmusic . In the beginning of this #song there's Finnish cattle calls #suomimastodon #finland #music

"Filmed in Welsh with English subtitles, it epitomises how and why reviving seed diversity is a transformational act, helping to re-value and pass on the language, skills and culture that have enabled farmers and rural communities to thrive for generations in Wales, and around our living planet."
It's also really lovely just to hear the Pembrokeshire accent – "oeddwn" becoming "wen" and "fel" becoming "wel" 
Mor hyfryd yw e.
Also – Welsh speakers – I'm interested to know what is said that's glossed in the subtitles as "it's a hassle". My ears can't make it out.
(I'm hashtagging "caturday" because of Twm, the farmer's cat, enjoying a lap 
)

The Sun and the Moon - by Don Shepherd
As moons are all the rage today, I thought this post would be good to reshare:
It's a beautiful piece of music. Don played at our wedding as @StevenKennard , Mike Mann and he were in a band together.
Enjoy!
Sibling duo Jennie Hayes and David Bingaman bring a retro sensibility to their album In Good Company. That’s not all, though — there’s a crackling confidence here that proves Brother and the Hayes are more invested in songwriting than aesthetics. Their plainspoken lyrics and undeniable chops give In Good Company a timeless warmth.

Passing on knowledge about my instrument and spreading my favorite tunes is a big passion of mine - and a very important part of what it means to me to be a FOLK musician. It's about sharing and spreading joy, lifting each other up, nerding around and just having an overall fantastic time together 
So here's a little info about where me and my partner Björn will be teaching workshops in 2025 (only in Germany this time). Some are nyckelharpa workshops, some are open to all instruments. I'm also always available for private nyckelharpa lessons online, just so you know!

Newly released - a murder ballad I wrote a couple of years ago featuring my good friend Shannon Hynes on vocals.
I knew a young Welsh lass from the valleys and an old Highlander could make some great ‘mountain music’ together.
Please give it a spin on spotify/all platforms
