Hi
I heard you on the Gerry Anderson show this morning, your voice is beautiful and i really enjoyed the two songs you sang on the show - the one about the white dress - is it not on the album?? i sent my hubby to premier records to buy your cd but i just checked it out there and the white dress isn't noted ?? Maybe you could let me know. Ta

Never thought I'd hear a full cd and feel that in every song and every the phrasing was perfect. I'm truly mesmerised. This is my idea of perfection. I feel privileged to have heard you. Would love the video of John Condon for use in Remembrance Day service. Is it on sale anywhere, please.

Love the album (300 miles). Came across it by chance in Tom Stevenson's gallery in Carrickfergus, Thought I would take a chance and buy the CD. Got it home and was really impressed. Love your voice.
Particularly like. Dingle Bay/John Condon/Water is wide..(brought tears to my eyes, one of the best version I have heard of this song)
PS I think the title (300 miles) could be better! means little to people!
Much success.
Regards David

thank you for singing at the hospice fundraising event in Lurgan Library. I really appreciate you giving up your time.Thanks also to the lads for sharing the ir musical talentsxx

Thoroughly enjoyed the launch tonight, you are pitch perfect, the arrangements superb, and the musicians..amazing! Still get goosebumps at Dingle Bay! Home...difficult song for a female voice ( Michael says so!)but whaow, he would eat his words! All the above,when coupled with your charisma, stage presence, wit, personality, and audience interaction makes for a fantastic career ahead of you. Many thanks again to all the team for such a great night. x

Brendan,
I owe you a drink when we (hopefully ) meet up. On this side of the sea the banjo players are the butt of most folk musical jokes - but not this time.

to answer joe whittakers question about the guitar tuning for john condon,with johnny being an amazing blue grass banjo player as well as a guitarist he tuned his guitar like a g banjo and then the 6th string to d and then picked g banjo chords, hope this helps joe.

I have had the pleasure of of listening to Janets tape for the past month.I think it is something different from the big names and I have no doubt that when word gets around Janet will become a big star.I had the privelege of hearing her live @ a Irish music session on Tuesday night in Kanes bar.The sweetness of her voice and interpretation of songs is delightful

Can you put up on your website the tuning and chords used in John Condon.

Janet,
Just heard your rendition of John Condon on Richard Diagnce's Devon Folk programme on i=Player.If you are planning a visit to England please contact me for a booking at the Riverside Folk Club or an In Concert. I will be buying 300 miles.
P.S. I had heard Mary Dillon's version of John Condon but have never been able to make contact with her or Songshed to obtain the CD Boys of Ireland - any thoughts on how I can get a copy would be appreciated.

Hope to come along and hear you sing some time soon in Portadown or thereabouts.Mary and I love that sort of music. Your voice is still the talk of Stirling University!If you are looking for some promotional work in Scotland, let me know. You'd go down a storm here.

Hi there sweetie-pie and Mr Wellen Dowd
Wow! What a fandabbydosey web site and the pic of you on the home page is soooo cute! You left us very short staffed at the club tonight - but all will be forgiven if you put 'walking on moonbeams' on your new album! I think you owe me at least that. Like I mean I have been your second biggest fan all these years!!! I'll leave it with you - am sure Graeme would be happy to echo the 'arched over stars' bit!
Ooooo I'm so excited about your cd - YOUR CD - freaky bikkies!
Let me know your first available Sat night so we can return the hospitality - we don't have a 'summer house' but we could all coorie in our little cupboard under the stairs!
Chao for now bella
Love C & G
