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 AlbumArchive 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.

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.
