Land, Sky and Sea – by Damh the Bard
Verse 1:
You are the rock, and you are the stone,
Rivers your blood, mountains your bone.
You are the Source, of all I’ll ever [...]

We had the most beautiful Winter Solstice ritual up at the Long Man of Wilmington yesterday with the Anderida Gorsedd.

The Winter Solstice and approaching New Year are a great time to look back over the last 12 months, and what an amazing year it’s been. Last year I decided that I would close my bushcraft school and concentrate entirely on my music. It’s been a lifelong dream of mine to be a professional musician, [...]

Okay – so I’m trying something new here. I’m posting this blog directly from this video on YouTube – hope it works! Technology eh!?
This song is so special to me. It says almost everything I want to say about nature and my love of the land. I’ve tried starting gigs with other songs, and some [...]

I’m having great fun at the moment cutting video, compressing them, and posting them onto my YouTube channel! Lady of the Silver Wheel, Merlin am I and Spirit of Albion are there so far. Song of Awen will follow tonight. Then I’d better give it a rest and get back to recording!

My Dad accompanied me on a couple of my gigs during November, and being keen on videos and keeping records of his holidays etc, he brought along his camera and filmed the shows.
It’s been great look at the footage as you are the performer you will never see live. I’m gradually editing the films and [...]
