Since 1994 I have shared my life and music with Cynthia Whiddon Green.  We have in turn shared the road and the music with you (and you know who you are).  This web site is a place to share the space between the songs and visits.  Our lives and the music we sing are like a mosaic. Each conversation, whether spoken or sung, adds a tile and each tile resolves the image as it adds more depth, richness and complexity.  For those of you (and you know who you are) who have not met us yet...the music is a mixture of original contemporary folk and traditional Celtic.  What each song shares is that they tell stories of special places and the people who inhabit them.                             Charles Stacey

First Pictures of the year have Gypsyfire comprised by Charlie and Steve Sprague at the High Desert Fine Arts Festival February 22, 23 and 24.  The three day show was at San Juan College and gave Charlie and Steve a good workout.  The performance had a great celtic/jazz vibe with Steve’s help.  He also provided the guitar work on the new Gypsyfire CD “Time’s Mandala: The Celtic Calendar Project”.  Then Charlie and Cynthia were part of the first Durango Celtic Festival and did their performance at the Irish Embassy Pub the
