Amid the mountains of madness and bleakness in this crumbling world, there are pockets of peace and serenity, and people who still care to share beauty and love and art. It is here where I find moments of peace and solidarity. One of these wondrous figures is Patrick Dexter, whom I stumbled upon sorting through the wreckage that remains of Twitter, and a video of him playing this ancient Irish carol brought me to his music. Playing before a backdrop of Irish beauty, often in some cozy handmade sweater, Dexter offers a place of refuge – so necessary and appreciated in this tumultuous times. Today he is crowned as Dazzler of the Day, because bringing people a little bit of peace will always be a dazzling feat. Check out his YouTube channel here and share in the joy.
