Two Worlds USA Tour March 2009

Two Worlds is singer harper Claire Roche and John of Celtic Ways


We have a two part show, extending from our March 2008 tour in the USA


First part is a combination of ancient Celtic stories through folk drama and songs accompanied by harp.
These are from our “Seven Tales of Celtic Ways”


Second part is a selection of Irish songs and stories by Claire by request accompanied by harp. Sing-alongs are encouraged and lyric sheets will be available.


I am also considering travelling with a mobile labyrinth for folks to try out at the break, but that’s just an idea at the moment. We also hope to feature special guests on our travels, especially dancers and story tellers that enhance the show.


Here’s the itinerary but several venues are not yet confirmed so please do invite us.


We can help you arrange a house concert too. This is my how-to on house concerts

Please let us know if you would like to come to one of our shows.


For those with venues please contact us. As our show is small theatre based the ideal venues are house concerts, small theatres and churches. We have also enjoyed Celtic style stores and galleries that have a performance area. I think you’ll like our terms to assist a little with funding of your venue. No sound equipment is needed if the venue is small.


I have two nice videos of Claire live


Here’s an TV interview with music on an Australian TV channel


Here’s Claire performing Fields of Fasseroe at Tara Hill church


Also we do welcome invites from broadcasters along the above route.

How Irish Peat Bogs Created Mythology

With the wonderful weather we have had lately in Ireland, folks are taking advantage with hay making, painting, and turf cutting. Folks ask me a lot of questions about turf cutters, why turf cutting is being banned and ask about the conservation issues. Being the Lughnasadh month some folks are revelling in the Tailtiu clearing the forests for farming legends. There is, perhaps, some confusion about reverence for farms and farmland balanced with forestry and wetland conservation. It is interesting to look into the creation, development and use of turf bogs to understand how the stories of mythology have evolved and possibly why the 1000s of megalithic structure dating from 4000 BC to about 1000 BC exist in Ireland. There are two very different types of Turf Bog in Ireland, so I will attempt to present their differences in relation to the mythology of the times of their creation Blanket Bogs These are the most common turf bog in Ireland, and through Scotland too.
