Realm: second star to the right, straight until morning
Hi everyone! I wanted to let everyone know Paul and I are contacting some of the groups, and artist that have been requested to be added to the play list. Hopefully, we will be recieving some new CD's in the next few weeks to add to the broadcast. Some of the artist that have that been sent information about, CelticRadio.net are-
Black47 Cherish the Ladies Boy of the Lough Steeleye Span Flogging Molly
Flogging Molly's rep replied with in 20 mins and forwarded our request to their radio promotion guy!!! So that is a step in the right direction!
If there is an artist that you would like to hear on CelticRadio.net post them here with a link to their main web page. Then we can see what we can do! We can't promise that we will be sent anything, but at least we can try. Cheers!

I've already PM'ed MacFive about this, but I contacted Bob Haligan, Jr. of the group Ceili Rain. He emailed me and said he was going to contact HR. If he hasn't already done so, please contact him. They're truly an excellent group. I don't remember the URL of their website, but a quick google ought to find it.
Thanks for starting this thread. I'm sure a lot of folks have favorite groups they'd like to hear on HR.

Bruce Davis is great adn he can be contacted @ his web sight brucedavis.com. ;he is for Scotland and sings a nice variety of music as well as traditional celtic music.
Lunasa Leahy although now that I look we've already got some of their stuff. Deanta, although I can't seem to find an official home page for them, I'd come across some of their stuff one day and I dug it. I know Green Linnet is bad, but you can abuse their bandwidth (if you have Real Audio) and listen to Whisper Of A Secret. Two days to go, Waltz of the white lillies and Where are you are my favorites. Planxty has disbanded but I found and enjoyed some of their tunes as well.

I just got back from a show where I heard the most awesome original song by a multiplatinum songwriter Harold Payne. It is called "Farewell to Ireland" While Harold is not necesarilly a Celtic musician, this song was very moving and I am going to try and persuade him to send it to Paul so that we can hear it on CR.N

I just recieved word that FLOGGING MOLLY will be sending CelticRadio their CD!!!!!!! For those that do not know, Flogging Molly, they are a high energy band, mixing Traditional Celtic styles with that of Rock and blues, with a hard hitting back beat. They are really a great bunch of musicians, and entertainers.
How are you? Well I hope. Yes, I know I haven't been here in a while-life has been in quite an uproar lately(a hermit's nightmare LOL!) but just dropped in to say that I recently purchased the Winter Storm III CD and just plain love it!
In corresponding with the fine gentleman handling my purchase, I informed him how I happened to find out about the CD and suggested he might forward the other two CDs-Winter Storm I (more piping) and WS II (more drums) on to CRN. He replied that he most definitely would!!
So hopefully we can all look for more of Winter Storm to be here soon-woohoo!
Take care,
Greg

Hey! Snuffy! Great to hear from you! Wondered you have been!
Hey! that is great about your new CD. I just ordered a new one too by Twinflame! I am all excited. When I ordered it, the band members wrote me personably! I was shocked and yet sooooooooooo pleased! I told them all about this site, MacFive's name and everything! I was probably a bit too obnoxious but wanted them to know about this site!
I am having a huge party at my house next Saturday.............a hermit's nightmare too! But hubby insisted it was our turn to have these people over..........sheesh!
This is great news. New Musicians and ordering CDs from the artists we play. I happen to personal like Winter Storm III alot!
So, I can't thank you all enough. Especially when you purchase a CD as a result of listening on Highlander Radio, it helps us alot just to send a little note to the artist how you found their CD. Makes a good impression and we see more CDs for the broadcast.
