  • Mighty drinking songs for fans of Joss Whedon's Firefly and Serenity--the perfect sound for hoisting a mug of mudder's milk. Get the 20 page songbook packed with lyrics-only to all of my Firefly-inspired songs, including: Firefly Drinking Songs, As Long As I'm Flyin', Kilted For Her Pleasure, and What Color Is Your Dragon? plus lyrics from Bedlam Bards' Browncoat album, On the Drift.

    It all began while I was watching an episode of Firefly called “Jaynestown”. In it, one of our antiheroes is drinking in a pub worried he’s gonna be arrested for past crimes he committed in Canton when a musician starts singing a song about him. The song is called the “Hero of Canton“.

    It turns out, “Hero of Canton” even inspired me to ask the question, “What other songs might’ve been heard in that pub in Canton?”

    I began a mission to write some of those songs. But I didn't do it alone. I wrote them with my friends James "Cedric" Hazlerig, Rie Sheridan Rose, and various Browncoats.

  • USB Flash Drive + Digital Album

    Archive your music. In 2011, there was a big change in how I recorded music and what I recorded. It was the start of the drinking songs era as I moved from traditional Irish and Scottish songs to Celtic Geek music, what I now call Sci F'Irish music.

    Rise of The Celtfather (currently titled "Rise of the Celtic Geek") includes all of my albums from 2011 until 2018. It also includes my Kilted Kings project, Captain Black Jack Murphy, the Pirates vs Dragons Podcast, a few compilations and just to really bring it home how far I have come, you'll get my first recording ever, circa 1988. It's not pretty. But I think it helps tell a great story.

  • Button/Pin/Patch + Digital Album

    "Take my love / take my land / take me where I cannot stand
    I don't care / I'm still free / you can't take the sky from me"

    What beautiful words from the theme song from the TV cult classic Firefly. This new Musical Pin highlights those first words. It shows your love for the show. But it also shows your willingness to give love into the world.

    Every day when my daughter Inara comes home from school, I ask her, "Did you do anything nice for someone today?" She now knows the routine. She tells me of the nice things she did.

    This Musical Pin is a great way to shine your light on love. Plus, it shines a light on one of the best TV shows ever. And you also get to wear my second album of Firefly songs on your sleeve.

    But a Musical Pin. Let love shine!

lyrics

With all my [G]fears and sorrows [D]close
I'm hanging [C]on - just hanging [D]on
I wish that [G]you were here with [D}me
To sail the [C]sky Seren[D]ity[G]

Intro: G

Chorus:
And take me [C]high or take me [G]low
Through to the [C]end where I may [G]go
If I can [Em]stand then I shall [C]pass
Pass [G]beyond this [D]night of [Em]black
Pass [C]beyond this [D]night of [G]black

How many words did you impart
While I chose to close my heart
And unto God you made this plea
Safe sail the sky Serenity

CHORUS
If just once more we dance in light
Or trace our tears through one more fight
What could I say to set you free?
But sail the sky Serenity

CHORUS

INSTRUMENTAL

CHORUS

As stars burn bright and rise the dawn
So our paths must journey on
We lose not hope in family
Still sail the sky Serenity

CHORUS X2
