walking singing

I’m an independent musician and creator of the Acoustic Crossroads project, dedicated to living traditional repertoires (Celtic, Irish, Bluegrass, and French-Canadian) on acoustic mandolin.

My artistic focus is 100% handmade, organic sound—no synthetic shortcuts, just the raw resonance of wood and driving acoustic picking.

In this new live session from the Acoustic Crossroads project, I took on José Feliciano’s holiday standard "Feliz Navidad" in a completely solo acoustic arrangement.

The challenge here was to capture the driving rhythmic bounce and festive spirit while keeping the tone grounded in traditional acoustic craftsmanship: clean plectrum attack, dynamic right-hand rhythm, and the natural resonance of aged tonewood. Recorded purely acoustic—no pickups, no synthetic processing.

The Great Australian Emu War (1932)

In 1932, a flock of roughly 20,000 emus migrated into the agricultural district of Western Australia, destroying crops and tearing down fences. Desperate farmers asked the government for help, and the Australian military deployed soldiers armed with Lewis machine guns and 10,000 rounds of ammunition. What followed was a complete tactical disaster for the military. The emus split into small "guerrilla" groups, completely outmaneuvered the heavy machine guns, and easily outran the trucks. The birds could take multiple bullet hits and keep running. After a few weeks, the military officially withdrew, leaving the emus victorious.

Even Blackbeard must have had bad days at work. I can imagine him thinking, I’m quitting this rat race, who needs the stress?

I wrote down these words and dropped them into Suno.

ENJOY!

Born from the crossroads of Celtic roots and American frontier traditions, this timeless fiddle tune standard continues to resonate with effortless energy.
