Four or five years later, a Canadian duo called Brown Ale discovered it and started performing it. They are now recording it and posted a YouTube video to promote it. They asked me to announce it on Mudcat for them. I want to thank Max for hosting this place and Aine for hosting the songbood, both of which enabled a couple of songwriters in Maryland to be discovered in Toronto. It's an amazing world. Here is the announcement which they emailed to me: --- Brown Ale Music Hi all, Just in time for St. Patrick's Day, here's one for you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TE_okZXz-w0. Words are by Peter Benson and Jeff Porterfield. The song will be on our next album, due out in June 2010. For the DJs on this list, I would be happy to email you an MP3 of the song (with less reverb, added here for theatrical effect) for spinning during your St. Patrick's Day programming. I can be reached at brownalemusic@sympatico.ca. Enjoy! Glenn McFarlane Brown Ale I hope you like it. |
