Ciaran is having me as a guest on his Celtic Music Radio show this Sunday. If you're near a radio or computer between 5 and 7, it'd be great if you'd listen and maybe email in.
Ciaran played Fools Waltz on his Celtic Music Radio show. It was great to hear it again, and I aggree with his comments - I hope that you get more gigs soon!
