This will be part of the weekly two-hour show, Monday Night Sessions with Paul McDevitt, produced by Jimmy Stafford. Paul and Jimmy have shown great support to the Irish music scene as a whole since they first started the programme. We have worked with the broadcasters on a number of occasions, including their live broadcasts from The Swell Music & Arts Festival on the island of Arranmore off the coast of Donegal and it’s a huge honour for us to be invited onto the Monday Night Sessions. Coming along to the studio with Alistair to play a few songs on our Emeralds will be a musicians well-known to our YouTube channel followers as some of the performers we have called upon in the past to demonstrate our instruments for you. They are: Michael Gillespie, Mark Black and Simon McCafferty. We are also delighted to have Tommy Callaghan joining us. Not only is he the man responsible for our new website, Tommy is also a highly-regarded singer/songwriter. The Monday Night Sessions with Paul McDevitt airs from 9 to 11pm IST, Highland Radio.

I would certainly like to try and tune-in, but I think 9pm IST might be 4pm EST in Canada, and as it's Thanksgiving weekend here and we're having a family gathering today for a turkey dinner with all the trimmings, it's unlikely that I'll be able to. Like HD, I'd also like to know if and where the broadcast may be archived.

4:15 EST USA Listening to the program now, that lefty X20 really sounds nice.
Tommy is a great vocalist too. Can't wait for my X7 with K&K to arrive, should be soon I hope. Last edited by 121; 10-10-2016 at 02:20 PM. |

Sean.... Thank you for letting us know about this radio program, it was very interesting.
I really liked the story that Alistair told about Stevie Vai and the jar of honey. Sean... Was that you singing "She Thinks I Still Care" ? If so, you did a great job on that old standard. You're a very good vocalist. I wish I had your talent. Last edited by 121; 10-11-2016 at 07:00 AM. |

We are so delighted to hear that you were able to tune in and enjoyed the show and Alistair's stories of which he has so many more! The whole broadcast is still on our Facebook page where we broadcasted it live, watch it back here https://www.facebook.com/emeraldguitarcompany We are also going to ask the station for the audio. Tommy Callaghan is a fantastic songwriter who will be releasing a new solo album next year. Here he is singing his beautiful song Loaded Dice with his band Our Native State https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJ-mJIBp_eY I thought I'd slip under the radar in the corner of the studio, but then I was asked to step up to the mic. That was indeed me singing She Thinks I Still Care and I am very honoured you liked it. Best wishes and thanks again Sean Last edited by Emerald Guitars; 10-11-2016 at 02:42 AM. |
