Celtfather Monthly December 2025 (Patreon)

Greetings Gunn Runner

Holidays are almost here. I feel almost ready. But I'm extremely excited about giving the gift of music this holiday season.

Last year, I had a dilemma. How do you give the gift of music?

I used to give CDs as presents. They fit perfectly as stocking stuffers. They were brilliant. It was a great way for fans to share my music with others.

The design I used to sell album pins last year didn't quite work. So I developed the Album Pin Jacket. It looks a lot like a CD jacket. But inside, you get an album pin that you can easily display in the jacket or remove the pin and wear it on your hat, backpack or whatever.

And the kicker is you also get a digital download of the album, plus information on how to listen to more music.

Now's the best time to order album pins from my store. You can now mix Fashion and Music into your holiday season.

UPCOMING SHOWS

DEC 6: Georgia Renaissance Festival Fall Festival, Fairburn, GA at King's Hall

DEC 7: Nerdy Wonderland at The Lost Druid, Avondale Estates, GA @ 12 - 5 PM.
