News from the front:

Our tune "Sleepy Maggie" (free download) was featured in the pilot of the dramatic TV series "The Black Donnellys." The pilot, directed by Paul Haggis, premiered on NBC in the US and Canada on 2/26/2007. Unfortunately, the show was cancelled before finishing out it's 13 episode run because of "bad" ratings. Too bad, because it's actually a very smart story. "Smart story," aye, there's the rub!
Here's the clip with our tune from the pilot:
And there's always a couple of free MP3 downloads on the web site:
