While Ronn has been recording renaissance and baroque music for over twenty years, his original compositions, the music of Ayreheart, only came to the forefront with the 2009 Grammy® nominated album, Indigo Road. Ronn's follow-up solo recording, One Morning, was the first album to feature Ayreheart members Willard Morris and Mattias Rucht. The group is currently working on new original music, which will be featured on a future Ayreheart-branded release.
One Morning brings together all the instrumentalists of Ayreheart for the first time on a recording. The instrumental tracks Before the Wind, Snapdragon, Wolf Summit, Borderland and Union Bridge, as well as the songs Sings in her Sleep and One Morning (full band version) are all regularly heard live at Ayreheart shows.

Indigo Road is the first album of original lute music by Ronn McFarlane. Although Indigo Road is supposedly a solo album with a generous helping of guest artists, it contains several of the pieces that have become staples of Ayreheart concerts: Cathedral Cave, Pinetops, Sycamore and Overland. Ayreheart member Mindy Rosenfeld contributes flute and harp to many of the tracks on this album.
