Memories of Middle Earth -- #1 Easy Listening album on MP3.comChecked the charts and Memories of Middle Earth is now listed as the #1 most-purchased Easy Listening album on MP3.com! Plus, " Hobbit's Dance" is topping the Classical music charts as one of the most-popular songs from the album and online. It's at #182 on all MP3.com!!!! With "Tolkien" at #94, expect to see much more music hitting the top of the charts. On a different note, I just finished completing my second compilation CD for the Celtic MP3s Music Magazine. The album features twelve tracks by a variety of great Celtic music artists, including one solo track by me from my upcoming album, "Soul of a Harper". The CD is currently on sale for just $7.98 and your purchase will help keep Celtic music alive.  see what bands benefitted from your clicks yesterday

Best of the RestFor those who didn't receive the Bard Crier, thank you all!!! The show at the Cactus Cafe was magical. We had a great crowd and energy like you wouldn't believe. Even made it through without that setlist we went out of our way to create, but forgot. It was fantastic. I still have a big smile on my face from the occasion. :)
And to add to that, looks like yesterday we made it to the " Best of the Rest" listing in the Austin American Statesman. One bit o'good fortune after another. Thanks for being a part of it all!

A Faire To Remember ReviewedWe really haven't taken the oppotunity to get our music reviewed much since our first CD, but I've been out trying to push, Memories of Middle Earth, and lo and behold, I just saw that Rambles Magazine just reviewed A Faire To Remember. Rambles is probably the best online magazine for reviews of the cultural arts and well worth checking out. Here's what they had to say about AFTR: "The Brobdingnagian Bards have A Faire to Remember, which caters Primarily to the sort of crowd that dons tights and ruffs for fun. "Bottom line is, there's a lot of bad music out there on the faire circuit, and the Bards are good," Tom says. "They're fun. They're unconventional. What more are you looking for?" Read the full review here.

New Music Added to Bard Top 100We hope to send our music through the roof at MP3.com with daily plays of our music until the end of next week. To that end, I've updated the Bard Top 100 Station which features ALL of our MP3.com music. But rather than have you wait 15 minutes for the 200 songs to load on that page, you can head over to our MP3.com page and click the streaming audio links. The station is now also updated with some of my solo music and music from the Celtic MP3s Music Magazine. Enjoy and keep listening!
