As those of you who have ever seen a production of A Christmas Celtic Sojourn will know, host Brian O’Donovan has a soft spot for vaudeville and often includes a vaudeville piece in his holiday spectacular. We have been delighted to indulge our cheesy side when we’ve collaborated with him on these songs (as you might remember from the rendition of My Irish Molly that we previously shared on Patreon). We got to lean into some juicy barbershop chords this summer at the Rockport Celtic Festival, on this vaudeville classic, Come Back Again To Me, Mavourneen, accompanied by Lindsay O’Donovan on piano and Maura Shawn Scanlin on fiddle. (Note: this video is not to be shared publicly, so please don’t post it on Facebook, etc.)
We also wanted to share that we are going to be part of the cast for this year’s Christmas Celtic Sojourn as well! This year’s show will have both in-person and virtual viewing opportunities, so regardless of whether you’re in the Boston area or would prefer a streaming option, check out ChristmasCeltic.com for tickets and info. We were excited to see a photo from our first year in the show being used as part of their promotion!
We hope you have a happy Thanksgiving later this week!
In harmony and gratitude,
Lauren, Lynn, Jeremy, and Will
