KelticDead Music Article
Our newest post is "Mist Covered Mountain." It's a Scot's lullaby, and though the melody is a variant of an older one, "Johnny, So Long at the Fair," the author (in the mid 1800s) generated a powerful version that inspires the feeling of grandeur of a mountain and for those who live in its presence. Earnie Taft and I put this one together where Earnie starts the tune off with his fiddle, and I join in with my Kerry Mezzo C whistle, Irish-tuned Bouzouki, and a stomp (drum) board.

Mist Covered Mountain or "Chi Mi Na Morbheanna"

New Home Website for Free Music and Stories
KelticDead Music

The KelticDead Music Initiative can now be located at
https://KelticDeadMusic.org

Just started filling in a new website as a collection resource of my free KelticDead Music video and downloadable PDF story Broadsides. Pretty excited about the story Broadsides, as these offer an in-depth overview of the folk music selections, as well as viewing and hearing the sheet music arrangements that I offer. Still all free and can be heard and viewed on your computers and smart phones. The concept of the KelticDead Music initiative is now being shared with both national and international Folk music magazines. Visit my link page in my website to see the growing collaborative efforts with the U.K. based Simply Folk Music Magazine. As with all the selections, there are no hidden membership requirements and if you have a computer and internet service the video projects and PDF stories are all free. As an example, check out my latest Story Broadside from the list currently available on my Broadsides page.

KelticDead Music: Storms are on the Ocean

The Carter Family first recorded this Old Timey-Rural ballad in 1927. It was one of many Americana tunes out of the 1800s about those folk who went to sea to fight in the battles against the British in the wars of 1812. Our mission with the KelticDead Music projects is to find and play Folk, Celtic, Americana, Country, and Seafaring tunes and songs with acoustic instruments. 

Storms are on the Ocean
