Inspired by a Celtic Woman

Last night, I went to a meeting with Sarah Dinan who asked for advice on promoting her band online. Considering I was fighting another sinus infection, it was a bit o'a challenge to get out there. Very tired. But I did and I'm very happy I did.

I don't know how useful I was to her, but I gotta say she's a very inspiring person. She's only been singing professionally for about a year and during that time, her band has moved to the forefront of the Celtic music scene in Austin and for good reason. Not only does the band feature some of the best Celtic musicians in town, like Heather Gilmer and Jeff Moore, but ye also have Sarah's incredible vocals. I'm hoping, at the very least, to feature Sarah in an upcoming edition of the my Celtic MP3s Music Magazine once they finish the album their currently working on.

Any case, after an inspiring discussion, I did decide at least this week, since I'm free, I'm gonna head down to B.D. Riley's Irish Pub downtown on Sixth Street this Sunday to listen to the tune session. It's at 8pm, free and Sundays the parking isn't too bad. If anyone out there'd like to join me, I'd love the company. I don't know the folks that play the sessions, so it'd be nice to hang with folks I know.

Oh, and best o'all, my sinuses aren't doin' too bad today.
