    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.

    "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!

about

Wear the Brown with Pride is a rallying call to all who share the inspiration of freedom and beating the odds. It's to the power of a grassroots movement and how unity can move mountains.

lyrics

Wear the Brown with Pride
lyrics Rie Sheridan Rose, music Marc Gunn

* [C]Lift a glass to [F]freedom,
[C]show your Rebel [G]pride.
[C]Lift a [G]glass to [C]Browncoats,
[F]especially [G]those who [C]died.

The [C]Browncoat is a [F]symbol,
[C]throughout the ‘Verse it’s [F]known—
[C]A Browncoat stands for [F]freedom
and we [C]take it [G]for our [C]own!

[C]The Alliance tried to [F]break us
when [C]we stood against their [G]might
but [C]we Rebels don’t [F]break easy
and we [C]won’t give [G]up the [F]fight!

*

We may cling to the shadows,
but it doesn’t mean we’re gone.
We trudge on through the darkness
‘cause we’re waiting for the dawn!

The movement started quiet,
with a leather coat of brown,
but it’s growing like a storm cloud,
and it will not be held down.

*

Tell the Rebel story,
Tell it far and wide--
spread the Browncoat legend
for the sake of those who tried.

The Browncoats keep a’flyin’
and they fight for what is right.
Standing strong ‘gainst the Alliance
in the cold black of the night.

*
