Marc Gunn's 5th Annual Celtic Halloween Music Special...
JOIN ME TONIGHT, Thursday, October 25, 2018 at 8:30 PM CST for a live streaming concert on YouTube. This is a Celtic Halloween special. That means I'll sing some Celtic songs that fit the American Halloween celebrations and mix it up with my spooky geeky original songs. It's like Halloween costuming in song. And it's all FREE.
Go to my YouTube channel and make sure you hit the notification bell so you will get a reminder this evening. While you're there, you can watch other Celtic Halloween shows I've shared over the years.
Is Pub Songs Podcast Happily Dead...?
I'm proud to release a brand new edition of the Pub Songs Podcast. This is the show where I share my favorite Celtic AND Geek songs as well as thoughts on life and my music. And in upcoming months, I will also share my entire albums from start to finish. This month, it is Happy Songs of Death. Listen.
Even more Celtic Pub Fun...
I have several Spotify playlists. My other main one is the newly titled Celtic Pub Fun. I made this playlist for me. It is a fun mix of Celtic songs and tunes, geeky songs and music by me. It's packed full of fun songs. This is my go to when I want some fun music. Follow and give it a listen.
Milestone UNLOCKED!
I made some updates to Patreon this week. First, I updated the Celtic Legends tier. Now for just $25 per month , you can have your name read out loud on the podcast once a month. The old Celtic Legends tier is still good, but I decided to make this the big sha-bang. It turned out to be a good thing, because...
I posted a new milestone: a bonus episode of the Celtic Christmas Podcast. That milestone was unlocked thanks to our new Celtic Legend: Marianne Ludwig. THANK YOU for your Generosity
I also want to thank our newest Patrons of the Podcast: Howard M., Bob H., Martin K., Glenn N., Jay M., Robert L., Maggie H., Mike C., John D., Stefan J., Kylie D.. Thanks also to Mary M. who raised her pledge.
