12 – Highlights

Hello Traveler! This is Elsie, your host of Tunes from the Tavern, the fantasy/ bardcore show here on WMWC.

For our final week together, I thought to take a little jaunt through some of the songs we heard this season and prep a ren faire playlist!

Up first, of course, Is Heather Dale. I recently found out that her song “Come and be welcome” is an actual medieval song used by bards. When I was recently at an SCA event we opened the bardic with it and it was so cool. So here is,

  • Come and Be Welcome
  • Mordred’s Lullaby

Next up are some folky tunes from lesser known artists that are becoming a staple in the niche. Here is,

  • Passerine (The Oh Hello’s)
  • Hartebeest (Yaelokre)
  • Bone to Bone (Small Fools)

Next we’re going to Ireland with,

  • The Queen of Argyll (Goitse)
  • Marie’s Wedding (The High Kings)
  • Irish Eyes (Rose Betts)

Up next are some Sea Shanties!

  • Dare Ye Cry Mercy (Sirena)
  • Roll the Old Chariot Along (David Coffin)
  • Twiddles (Misbehavin’ Maidens)

Two songs from Two amazing artists,

  • The Rider (Paris Paloma)
  • Paint it Black (Hildegard von Blingin’)

Second to last, I have to play Celtic Woman

  • Dúlaman
  • Follow Me

Finally, to close out this season is the classic

  • Soldier, Poet, King (The Oh Hellos)

Well Traveler, it’s time to go on your way. Thank you for joining me at WMWC this year. I love doing this silly little show. Go out, have an adventure or two, and we’ll meet again in the cold depths of January.
