When I hear these melodies I can't stop thinking about our old Europe. The different ancient cultures, tribes lived there and so on Thank you very much

I can vividly imagine this song being played in a medieval tavern, and all the guests are taking part in the song joyfully 🌿🤎

I am 60 years old but since October 2023 my eyes have opened to so much i haven't seen. Music has come into my life in abundance & Celtic music performed in this way shows how much love can be shared in our hearts from country to country & beyond. The feeling of peace, love & hope comes over me when i listen. Thank you🙏

This makes me feel connected to my ancestors in a way words can’t explain. It makes me appreciate the beautify and fragility of life. Thankyou for the moment your music has brought into my life even for an instant

Sing along ...
O, the rising of the sun
And the running of the deer
The playing of the merry organ
Sweet singing in the choir.

When I first met the woman who was to be my wife, her hair was as long as yours. My great grandmother never had her cut in her life. She wore it in a Gibson girl style. This is probably why I have hair down past me arse. Anyway and most importantly, your music is wonderful. You are very talented, and I am compelled to subscribe! 😊
