BUNYAN AND BANJOES book, 1987 & 2004 Coming soon! by Kitty Donohoe and Pasqua Cekola
The task of updating new pages for the book
and meshing the recording technology of the '80's with current methods has been interesting! The "Bunyan and Banjoes" book will contain all of the songs
charted out in musical notation plus recipes, games and tons of information.
THIS ROAD TONIGHT, 2001
Produced by Kitty and David Mosher, the album is the result of a
collection of songs written by Kitty during a long hiatus from recording. As ever, Kitty draws on her Irish heritage musically
and uses a healthy dose of uilleann pipes, whistles and accordion in addition to guitars, bass and keyboard to back her up
on all 12 original songs and tunes. Stepping a little farther afield than on past projects, Kitty and David integrated some
unusual percussion to bring a novel feel to a couple of the cuts.

FARMER IN FLORIDA, 1986
Kitty’s first album was produced by Michigan musician Joel Mabus and includes
beautiful performances by many of the areas most talented players, including Peter Madcat Ruth, Chris Rietz and Peter Dominguez.
A bit more traditional sounding than her subsequent recordings, “Farmer in Florida” is considered “a classic”
work by many of her fans and showcases her diverse songwriting.

BUNYAN AND BANJOES CD, 1987 & 2004 Songs of Michigan and
the Great Lakes
The CD is now available and the book will be after the first of the
year. 2005, by the way, marked the 200th birthday of Michigan becoming a territory.
In 1987 I wrote a bunch of songs about Michigan to perform
in celebration of our 150th birthday and put it out as a cassette with an optional book available. I had no idea the
songs would become as popular as they have, with kids, teachers, history buffs and Michigan fans of all ages. I'm finally
releasing the project as a CD andwe're at the finishing line. Most of the original songs are still intact on the CD with three
that were rerecorded to reflect changes; one new traditional lumbercamp song; and four originals that have never been recorded,
including a few with a more Great Lakes regional feel.
