Portrait

Travel and Song Writing go together. This journal documents the times, places, people and events that led to the Eachraidh albums "Culloden field" and "Angel and the Canadian Celtic Cowboy". In a way it's a musical journey. The "muse" arrives unexpectedly but is very much influenced by time and space. Music can be heard at daviefirestar.com. ENJOY
