Patrick O. (Shaun) Young, ... aka "Shaun That KelticDead Guy"
KelticDead Music is a WEB-based initiative with a mission to find interesting stories, tunes, and songs that are in the traditions of Celtic-Folk music cultures found throughout the world. I created the KelticDead Music initiative as a "story-music" venue. The Celtic Folk cultures include a LOT of music and songs from places found around the world, to include Ireland, Scotland, Wales, England, Nova Scotia, Appalachia, Northern Europe, France, Spain, etc., and in many other formats like seafaring tunes and songs.
The main focus of the KDM is to find and arrange the tunes for easy play with instruments like Celtic, six-hole whistles and other acoustic folk instruments and to provide stories about those tunes and songs into "BROADSIDES" that give insight about why the tunes and songs may have been created or just about fun facts around the tune or song.
Earnie Taft , The Irish Rogues
Earnie is a good friend of mine and has a long history in Celtic-Folk music. He plays a wide variety of instruments as part of the CEILI pub band experience and within the Old-Timey music genre. He frequently supports the KDM projects with his fiddle, banjo, or mandolin, as well as keeping a check on the style of play with each KDM project.
Linda lives and works in Little Rock, Arkansas and continues to play folk and Celtic music there while working with Veterans. She plays the guitar and provides voice and harmony to many of the songs that we have produced. She has become a key contributor in the KDM core group with her knowledge and experience in music, singing and songwriting.
