Hello from Japan! 🇯🇵
Greetings from the north of Japan in Hokkaido. This is the first time we have ever been to this beautiful region, and we are doing a total of eight shows here! We're having a blast getting to share music with Japanese audiences, once again. Several songs from the new album are featured in the concert this time, including "Moment in Time," which roughly translates in Japanese to the saying "Ichigo Ichie" (meaning 'one moment, one meeting'), "Adventurer," and "New Horizons."
New Single: Storyteller ✨🍂
Friday's Greetings!
Good morning from Tottori, Japan! We are currently on tour here, but are excited to announce that today the second single from the new album is out and you can listen to it now.
"Storyteller" is one of 5 new instrumental tunes from the new album. Some of you may have heard this new tune at several of our shows last year, and since then we've had such a great time arranging it and adding extra layers to the recorded version.
We wanted this piece to feel like a story with all its contrasts and adventures as you listen. And it is now available to listen on all digital music and streaming platforms! Enjoy :)
New Single: Moment in Time 🍂🕰
Good Morning! ✨
The first song on the new album (and the title track) is a song called "Moment in Time." This is a song written about the idea that we will never experience the same moment twice. It's always going to be different as we learn, grow and change, and as the world, seasons and time change around us.
This was also the very first song written for the album, and we like to think it's similar to reading the first chapter in a novel. We are very excited to announce that this song is now available as a single on all digital music and streaming platforms! Enjoy :)
Moment in Time: now available for pre-order! ✨
Hello, Storytellers. 🪶
So today is a big day. It's the first time you can listen to the new music, plus now you can officially order the new album in our shop!

A Week at Sea … 🌺
We've just returned from a lovely week in the sun and sand onboard the inaugural String Break Cruise in the Bahamas. It was a week full of great music, sightseeing, and fun times for all. A true music festival at sea! One of the things that was so truly special about the cruise was getting to hang out with our friends in other bands and their families, and actually have the chance to watch …

How Do You Listen?
Greta here: I have a question for you. Do you listen to albums on CD now? Or have you migrated your listening habits to streaming services or downloads? I'm very curious what your favorite one is, or how your habits have changed, even in the last year.As for me, I kind of do everything! (Except for maybe downloads
When a Song Takes a Long Time 🍁
As I’m checking in with you all today, it’s already beginning to feel like Autumn: misty mornings, spiderwebs, leaves beginning to fall — and I’m not mad about it. This is my favorite time of year, and as we cozy up in the recording studio to work on the new Celtic Christmas album between tours, I’m reminded of a very particular tune and memories of writing it.
Up at Dawn with a Yawn 🏜
Meet Me at Dawn is one of those wildcard tracks that ended up on the new album with all three of us wondering "where did this one come from?"
It was inspired by a story our mom was telling us a few months ago. When she was little, her dad took her on a road trip out to Arizona where they went into the superstition mountains.
Streaming Music: Good or Bad?
Recently, we received a question from a listener, which is also a question we've heard quite frequently from our (very conscientious) fans, and I thought I would answer it today.
"Dear Gothard Sisters,
Thank you so much for your music. It truly brings me joy every time I listen to it, which is especially appreciated these days.
I'm writing because I have a sort of weird question. Recently I was listening to Dragonfly on Spotify, and it occurred to me that I have no idea if it supports you at all to stream your music rather than getting it on CD. The problem is, I don't have a CD player anymore and I don't do downloads either.
Do you actually get any compensation from Spotify at all? I really enjoy it and want to support you, but I just don't do CDs anymore.”
