Folk Music : Folk Festivals : McGinn of the Calton

Over the pandemic years I had a show premiered on the Folk at the Salmon Bothy Facebook, YouTube and Web Site. It told the story of how I started my journey on the folk highway of songs,tunes and stories. during the 60's folk revival times. It is still available to view if you would like to watch. Just click on image below.

I  have also developed some other presentations which are suited to Festival settings.

McGinn of the Calton : A look at the life and times of Matt McGinn through his stories, poems and songs. Using multi media and live songs I will present an insight into the works and life of Matt McGinn. Listen to the final song "Coorie Doon” taking from my "McGinn of the Calton" show.

Over the lockdown period Folk at the Salmon Bothy

started a virtual folk club where singers and players recorded videos of songs which were then broadcast over their website.

Below is a couple of songs that I uploaded for you to have a listen too.

More recordings of my songs can also be found on my YouTube channel

A song that was a favourite of mine when I was singing with the band Steamfolk. We had many happy years together singing and laughing and dinking the odd pint of Guinness together.  Cheers Terry and Trev happy happy memories

A song about the sadness that drug addiction can cause to yourself and your family loved ones
