Adam Young replied: "Hi Marc -  - I'm usually working while listening, doing graphic design work or something similar...or just sitting and concentrating on the music itself. I've got two gigs on St. Patrick's Day, so I'll be out in the pubs (2 - 5 pm and 8 - 10 pm) in Sydney, NS, and joining a fellow artist (who you've featured recently), Mary Beth Carty, at her session in the morning. That's also how I'm celebrating the culture through music this St. Patrick's Day!  Our focus is more Scottish music, but we'll be throwing as much Irish into the mix as we possibly can...and staying away from green beer and pots of gold and leprechauns... Best of luck on the show(s)! Thanks" Roger replied: "Greetings Marc from Kendal UK  its snowing. been making a Shepherds Pie for tea while listening to the last episode with the odd stop to practise my bodhran against a song... i need lots of practice... keep up your good work. your podcast is essential listening especially if you have a ceiling to wall paper. best regards"

Phil Hartline replied to the Celtic Music Magazine: “I listen in my shop, where I make musical instruments and general wood projects.   I am celebrating Celtic Culture through music by learning to play the fiddle! I have a wonderful opportunity to learn true Co. Clare style from a man who spent a lot of time there. Beginner that I am, I will still be playing tunes on my fiddle to celebrate!" Paul replied: "Marc, I was sitting at my computer writing code ... as one does .. "For St Patrick's Day?" I will be participating in an Irish Road Bowling event with my co - workers at the Green Bank Observatory in Green Bank, West Virginia We started back in October, listening to music for Samhain, then continued into November and December with Celtic Christmas ... and really we listen to Celtic music year - round  -  but I will be celebrating Celtic culture by wearing the green on Friday while I'm busy at Ból an bhóthair, then hoisting a proper stout afterwards. Going to a fife and drum reunion in July (in Williamsburg, VA), where I will be playing a heck - ton of good Irish, Scots, and Welsh music (as well as a smattering of German and English marches, because, well, 18th C. Military music was all over the place) We always enjoy your shows!!!" PENNIERICH replied: "During the show we usually take a break and just relax and listen.” Jesse Ferguson emailed: "I'll be listening to the Irish &amp; Celtic Music Podcast at work that day, then practicing my favourite Irish songs at home on my guitar. Finally, I'll be activating a new Irish song on my YouTube channel, to share with my subscribers, a tradition I've kept going for over 12 years." Michael Maccarone emailed: "Marc Gunn, I usually download episodes and stockpile them. I listen to them on (my rare) vacations, after I have broken them down into 20 - 25 minute chunks (my mp3 player won't rewind within a track, so I split each episode into 3 - 5 mini episodes, which makes it easier if I missed something and want to go back). As a result, I'm only up to episode #430 so far. I don't have any specific Celtic culture plans [for St Patrick’s Day] for this week, other than I just watched the Oscar - winning short, An Irish Goodbye yesterday, and hope to get to the Banshees of Inisheerin in the next couple of weeks. Keep up the good work!"

The album hasn’t been available in probably 10 - 12 years. So this is your chance to own the limited - edition album. And if you’re concerned about Climate Change, like I am, then I’d like to recommend that you also get a Celtic Earth Tote Bag as well. I’m gonna bet that single - use plastic bags will no longer be allowed at grocery stores in the next 10 years. California is already doing that as are many countries around the world. It’s great for the environment. So you can get ahead of the curve and do something great for our planet. There are lots of other rewards to check out.

WELCOME IRISH &amp; CELTIC MUSIC MINI PODCAST I’m Marc Gunn, and I launched a Kickstarter for the Irish &amp; Celtic Music Podcast on Thursday. I want this launch to be super successful. So I’m gonna give you a 6-Pack Mini episode to inspire you to make a pledge. The campaign only goes for two weeks. I’m gonna bring you an extra mini episode every 2-3 days plus, the main show which comes out every Thursday.

One of the main things I’m funding with this campaign is an Album Pin. Album pins are lapel pins. But each album pin is themed to a specific CD. So when you own the album pin, you’ll also get the associated album, so you can wear your album on your sleeve. This year’s design reminded me of my compilation, The Secret World of Celtic Rock, that I released at the start of 2005. So I decided to use that as an excuse to re-release the physical CD as well. So you’re gonna get the album and the enamel pin if you choose that reward.  There are lots of other rewards to check out. Follow my link at celticmusic.org/celticrock to make a pledge.

Sarah Fletcher replied: "Hi Marc, I am currently working while listening to the latest Celtic music podcast.  It helps me get through the day.  Thanks" Daniel Faigin emailed: "Well, first, I'd like to encourage you to go back to putting the show number in the show title. It helps with how I organize things in iTunes. What are you doing while listening? Generally, it is on in the background while I work, after I play off that day's playlist (not listened to in 3 years). If a song particularly captures my ear, I look up the artist and either purchase an album from them, or add it to my Amazon wish list. Found a number of great groups that way, through not only this podcast, but Mostly Folks and the Woodsongs podcast." Go to MageNetwork.com for more podcasts. PNiceberg emailed: "Hi Marc, Thanks for all your hard work and efforts. What are you doing while listening? Either working or out walking my dog and enjoying the fresh sounds of your show!

Today I was listening to the Irish and Celtic Music podcast while airbrushing a small model of the starship Enterprise - D, and enjoying the early renaissance festival weather we were having here in Pittsburgh.

On St Patrick's Day he planned to be "cooking Salmon for friends than having a session" Jeremy King of Poitin said: "Hey Marc, I'm off to Vienna this St Pat's weekend -  I'm sure there are one or two Irish pubs there. But really I'm going for a concert of film music by Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra and strolling around the beautiful old city...." Anne emailed: "I most often listen while I’m driving. On St. Patrick’s Day I’ll eat out for a special Irish meal." Gary Randolph said: "I’m doing a storytelling performance for St. Patrick’s Day." Connie Kiefiuk emailed: "I am finishing an embroidery project while listening to the podcast. For St. Patrick's day cooking a traditional corned beef, cabbage, carrots, onion and potatoes meal. I am eating my homemade dinner with a glass (or two) of Guinness Stout wearing my green and watching "The Quiet Man" movie. Love your podcasts. I'm a newbie, discovered your program this past summer." Shel O'Toole emailed: "Dear Marc, Thanks for sending out this song on ANZAC day.  The words of the returned soldier M Edgerley would be powerful enough on their own but when presented by the wonderful voices of Jonny Dyer and Vicki Swan and their musical accompaniment they are deeply felt.  I was moved to tears. I tend to avoid ANZAC Day as it seems to have become a promotion of war rather than a remembrance of the horrors and loss.  This song took me back to when I was a child and the purpose of ANZAC day was to acknowledge the futility and ongoing impact of war. This Aussie thanks you. Regards" Brian McReynolds sent a picture: "So on my (local) travels, I wore my podcast shirt with my kilt while touring the B Reactor on the Hanford Nuclear Site in Washington State. It was well received by a tour guide and one of the people on the tour. Love your podcast and everything you do for the artists. ''

What other podcasts do you listen to? brennan donnelly replied to the question of what he's doing while listening: "Everything  -  from working to gardening to riding in my car." On St Patrick's Day he planned to be "cooking Salmon for friends than having a session" Jeremy King of Poitin said: "Hey Marc, I'm off to Vienna this St Pat's weekend -  I'm sure there are one or two Irish pubs there. But really I'm going for a concert of film music by Pilsen Philharmonic Orchestra and strolling around the beautiful old city...." Anne emailed: "I most often listen while I’m driving. On St. Patrick’s Day I’ll eat out for a special Irish meal." Gary Randolph said: "I’m doing a storytelling performance for St. Patrick’s Day." Connie Kiefiuk emailed: "I am finishing an embroidery project while listening to the podcast. For St. Patrick's day cooking a traditional corned beef, cabbage, carrots, onion and potatoes meal. I am eating my homemade dinner with a glass (or two) of Guinness Stout wearing my green and watching "The Quiet Man" movie. Love your podcasts. I'm a newbie, discovered your program this past summer." Shel O'Toole emailed: "Dear Marc, Thanks for sending out this song on ANZAC day.  The words of the returned soldier M Edgerley would be powerful enough on their own but when presented by the wonderful voices of Jonny Dyer and Vicki Swan and their musical accompaniment they are deeply felt.  I was moved to tears. I tend to avoid ANZAC Day as it seems to have become a promotion of war rather than a remembrance of the horrors and loss.  This song took me back to when I was a child and the purpose of ANZAC day was to acknowledge the futility and ongoing impact of war. This Aussie thanks you. Regards" Brian McReynolds sent a picture: "So on my (local) travels, I wore my podcast shirt with my kilt while touring the B Reactor on the Hanford Nuclear Site in Washington State. It was well received by a tour guide and one of the people on the tour. Love your podcast and everything you do for the artists. ''

Tom Morley emailed around St Patrick's Day: "Marc, Our Chattanooga - based band Stringer's Ridge played a concert on St. Patrick's Day at the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC. (I am there on the faculty at the famous folk arts school usually once a year teaching beginning or intermediate Irish Fiddle.) We had a wonderful crowd and it was a great way to spend the best Irish day of the year! I am enclosing several photos of us at the historic Keith House where we put on the concert. (Tom Morley - fiddle, Fran Morley - bodhran, Bryant Haynes - guitar) Thanks for all you do to promote Irish trad music!"  Marilyn S. Hansen sent a photo about Easter Rising Band: "14 seminarians got together years ago in St. Louis and developed an Irish band. Most of them are married now. They play at each other’s weddings, but they also have regular gigs. The interesting part is how their kids take part… This is last year‘s celebration. I was out of town this year celebrating my sister’s birthday the day before St. Patrick’s Day. Thought I’d send you last year’s photo. I’ll send you a few that they’ve sent to me for this year.  Pete Watson emailed St Pat's photos: "Hi Marc, The Bookends had a fabulous time playing a number of shows throughout Ontario around St. Patrick's Day.Attached is a photo of Miriam (left) and Cait (right) on St. Paddy's Day for our gig at The Rec Room, Toronto, with our regular special guest bodhrán player extraordinaire, Romano Di Nillo.Romano is just back from 4+ years with Come From Away on Broadway and we were so glad to have him with us for these shows.The venue was handing out some "paddywhackery" to attendees and these 3 couldn't resist putting some on!"  Bruce Cummings, a Piper emailed a photo: "Hey Marc!Just to say how much I enjoy listening to the Celtic music you provide. You asked for pictures from St. Patrick's Day 2023, so here's a couple. I am part of the Lane Fire Brigade Pipes and Drums in Eugene Ore. We had a great weekend piping in the area.Keep up the good work!"   Jim O'Connor of Boston Blackthorne emailed a photo: "Hi Marc -hope you had a fabulous holiday! Boston Blackthorne played 3 nights in Western MA, centered around St Patrick’s Day as well as the big parade (the nation’s oldest) in Holyoke MA.We played to crowded enthusiastic fans in Northampton MA and Holyoke MA.But perhaps the best gig (and story) was the one that arose spontaneously back in the lobby of our hotel after our St Pat’s evening show. The hotel lobby is most frequently empty but this night is was crowded with about 100 boisterous folks from Minnesota, visiting Massachusetts to support a Women’s college Hockey team. We were approached by the unofficial spokesperson who pointed at our guitar and fiddle and asked, “Can you really play those?” I answered of course we can, and this is your lucky night!Not only has your party been invaded by musicians, we are an Irish band and this is St Patrick’s Day! We proceeded to unpack our instruments and did a set of singalongs like Charlie on the MTA for the Boston connection.Halfway through the set our wives came into the lobby -my wife grumbled to Pete’s wife, “This party is going to keep us up all night!”Pete’s wife Maureen looked a little closer and exclaimed, “Hey that’s Jim and Pete in the center of it all!”They joined the fray, we had the best gig of the year playing for this group of strangers from the Midwest, wonderful folks who doubtless went home with a great tale and the definition of the work “Craic!”

Pete Watson emailed St Pat's photos: "Hi Marc, The Bookends had a fabulous time playing a number of shows throughout Ontario around St. Patrick's Day.Attached is a photo of Miriam (left) and Cait (right) on St. Paddy's Day for our gig at The Rec Room, Toronto, with our regular special guest bodhrán player extraordinaire, Romano Di Nillo.Romano is just back from 4+ years with Come From Away on Broadway and we were so glad to have him with us for these shows.The venue was handing out some "paddywhackery" to attendees and these 3 couldn't resist putting some on!" Bruce Cummings, a Piper emailed a photo: "Hey Marc!Just to say how much I enjoy listening to the Celtic music you provide. You asked for pictures from St. Patrick's Day 2023, so here's a couple. I am part of the Lane Fire Brigade Pipes and Drums in Eugene Ore. We had a great weekend piping in the area.Keep up the good work!" Jim O'Connor of Boston Blackthorne emailed a photo: "Hi Marc -hope you had a fabulous holiday! Boston Blackthorne played 3 nights in Western MA, centered around St Patrick’s Day as well as the big parade (the nation’s oldest) in Holyoke MA.We played to crowded enthusiastic fans in Northampton MA and Holyoke MA.But perhaps the best gig (and story) was the one that arose spontaneously back in the lobby of our hotel after our St Pat’s evening show. The hotel lobby is most frequently empty but this night is was crowded with about 100 boisterous folks from Minnesota, visiting Massachusetts to support a Women’s college Hockey team. We were approached by the unofficial spokesperson who pointed at our guitar and fiddle and asked, “Can you really play those?” I answered of course we can, and this is your lucky night!Not only has your party been invaded by musicians, we are an Irish band and this is St Patrick’s Day! We proceeded to unpack our instruments and did a set of singalongs like Charlie on the MTA for the Boston connection.Halfway through the set our wives came into the lobby -my wife grumbled to Pete’s wife, “This party is going to keep us up all night!”Pete’s wife Maureen looked a little closer and exclaimed, “Hey that’s Jim and Pete in the center of it all!”They joined the fray, we had the best gig of the year playing for this group of strangers from the Midwest, wonderful folks who doubtless went home with a great tale and the definition of the work “Craic!”

You can send a written comment along with a picture of what you're doing while listening. Email a voicemail message to celticpodcast@gmail.com Dan Cunningham emailed me on Facebook: "Thank you Marc for your podcast and all you do for the Celtic community. I've been an advid fan for years We receive your podcast on TuneIn and it's tradition that my wife and I listen to the new podcast every Saturday morning during our breakfast. My wife Cindy and I live in the North land of Minnesota and we both look forward to the weekends and the Irish and Celtic music podcast. God bless." Google changed their voicemail service. I can longer download the audio files. Fortunately, their voice-to-text feature is pretty good. I got a voicemail from Heidi Jane: "Hey Mark, I just wanted to say thank you very much for including me. It's really an honor, and I'm just grateful. It's a good time of year to remind me to tell people about your podcast. Thank you so much and happy Saint Patrick's day. I'm really glad that you are doing this for everybody and for the music. It's very noble and wonderful. Take care." Jason Roberts sent: "Hey mark, I've been a listener since pretty much the beginning and I just want to send a huge amount of congratulations out to you for your 300 episodes. I record audio and produce learning video for my job in the computer world, so I truly understand the huge effort that goes into planning and recording your audio and producing these podcast sessions. I also dabble with playing guitar and my favorite music to play is Irish trad music. You're an inspiration along with all the artist that you help, and I wish you the best on your next 300 episodes. Hey, man when you finish this next podcast. Take a few minutes and enjoy a pint or three of the black stuff."   This Week in Celtic Music 0:07 "The Jolly Beggarman/Whiskey Before Breakfast" by <a href="http://garryomeara.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Garry O Meara</a> from Pickin' Time 5:10 "Dowd's #9/ Bag of Spuds/ The Tamlin" by <a href="http://www.stringtheoryirish.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">String Theory</a> by String Theory 8:52 "P Stands for Paddy" by <a href="http://www.emishmusic.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Emish</a> from Sinners Make the Best Saints 14:28 "Backdraft" by <a href="http://www.prydein.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Prydein</a> from Loud Pipes (Save Lives) 18:16 "Muirshin Durkin" by <a href="http://www.plasticpaddyband.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Plastic Paddy</a> from Lucky Enough 20:47 "Song &amp; Hop Jig: The Whistling Thief / The Rocky Road To Dublin" by <a href="http://www.patrickdarcymusic.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Patrick D'Arcy</a> from Wallop the Spot 25:11 "Charlie on the MTA" by <a href="http://www.kilrushmusic.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Kilrush</a> from The Basement Sessions 29:05 "Sailor's Wife Set" by <a href="http://theirishbard.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Andrew McKee</a> from The Irish Bard 31:40 "Two Hours After St. Parick's Day" by <a href="http://www.beltainemusic.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Beltaine</a> from Jump at Samhain's Fire 35:08 "Up By Christchurch And Down By St. Patrick's And Home" by <a href="http://www.valley-entertainment.com/colours-1.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Finbar Furey</a> from Colours 39:25 "St Patrick's Day" by <a href="http://www.black47.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Black 47</a> from Last Call 43:24 NEW PATRONS OF THE PODCAST 44:07 "Branle Double" by <a href="http://dronemusic.co/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Drone</a> from Drone v Awen 46:29 "Merry Ploughboy" by <a href="http://www.wildcolonialbhoys.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Wild Colonial Bhoys</a> from Century 50:13 "Raglan Road" by <a href="http://www.myspace.com/carolansmusic" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Thomas Patrick Kenny</a> from The Music of Turlough O'carolan and Other Irish Treasures 53:30 "The Irish Pub Song" by <a href="http://www.seamuskennedy.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Seamus Kennedy</a> from Tricky Tongue Twisters 56:10 "Old Dun Cow" by <a href="http://culturepunkatl.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Muckers</a> from The Muckers 1:00:09 CELTIC PODCAST NEWS 1:01:03 "Morgan Rattler - Lads of Alnwick" by <a href="http://www.mitchellandvincent.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mitchell and Vincent</a> from Circling the Square 1:07:38 "She Moved Through the Fair" by <a href="http://www.abbygreen.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Abby Green</a> from Why Should I? 1:11:05 "The White Set" by <a href="http://www.theledfarmers.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Led Farmers</a> from Katie 1:14:42 "Song of the Celts" by <a href="http://theyoungwolfetones.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Derek Warfield &amp; The Young Wolfetones</a> from Let Ye All Be Irish Tonight 1:18:16 "Whiskey in the Jar" by <a href="http://www.brayzenheads.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Brayzen Heads</a> from Floored 1:21:52 "Clawhammer Reels" by <a href="http://www.spencermurray.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Spencer Murray &amp; Pipeslinger</a> from Sound &amp; Fury 1:24:37 "Finnegan's Wake" by <a href="http://thebards.net/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Brobdingnagian Bards</a> from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holy_Grail_of_Irish_Drinking_Songs" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> The Holy Grail of Irish Drinking Songs</a> 1:28:01 CELTIC FEEDBACK 1:31:10 "The Miners" by <a href="https://www.eldersmusic.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Elders</a> from Story Road 1:35:28 "YK INN" by <a href="http://trionua.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">NUA</a> from FLOW 1:40:17 "Irish Rover" by <a href="https://www.cdbaby.com/Artist/JimCope" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Jim Cope</a> from King of Balleyhooley 1:43:26 "Wild Rover" by <a href="http://www.patreon.com/battlelegs" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Battlelegs</a> from Lost My Shoes 1:47:58 "Whistling Postman Set" by <a href="http://www.betterthanitsounds.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Black Market Haggis</a> from Better Than It Sounds 1:51:59 "Green Over Red" by <a href="http://www.sistersofmurphyband.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Sisters of Murphy</a> from Working Stiffs Unite 1:58:50 "Parting Glass" by <a href="http://www.inforapennymusic.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">In For A Penny</a> from Every Day Should Be St Patrick's Day <a href="http://celticmusicpodcast.com/vote/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">VOTE IN THE CELTIC TOP 20</a>.

This is not your typical wham-bam-thank you m'aam tour. We travel in small groups. We explore the Celtic history of different regions. We don't need to see everything, because this is a vacation. Instead, our invasion brings out the relaxation and magic of our adventure. In 2018, you can join me on a Celtic Invasion of the Isle of Skye in Scotland. Sign up to the mailing list at celticinvasion.com.   Notes: * Helping you celebrate Celtic culture through music. My name is Marc Gunn. I am a musician and podcaster. You can share this show and find more episodes at celticmusicpodcast.com. And you can support this show on Patreon. If you're new to this show on iTunes or elsewhere, I welcome you. My goal is to bring together small indie Celtic bands with Celtic music fans. So each week, I share an hour-long episode packed full of amazing indie Irish and Celtic music. Most of the bands, you have probably never heard of. Yes, there some that are turning heads in the Celtic music scene. But most are small. They don't have a record label. They can't afford a publicist. But the music is just as good. They deserve to be heard. So if this show moves you, please do us all a BIG favor and SHARE IT on social media. Or tell a friend. Help spread the word. Now with every episode I ask you to vote for your favorite bands in that episode. At the end of the year, I compile all of your favorites into this show--the Celtic Top 20. These are the Top 20 Celtic bands that you thought were the best in 2016. When you're done listening, go cast your vote. Then listen to past episodes and to the same. You can do all of that on the website at celticmusicpodcast.com/vote/. * CELTIC PODCAST NEWS: We have a new YouTube Channel. To subscribe, follow this link.

This is not your typical wham-bam-thank you m'aam tour. We travel in small groups. We explore the Celtic history of different regions. We don't need to see everything, because this is a vacation. Instead, our invasion brings out the relaxation and magic of our adventure. In 2018, you can join me on a Celtic Invasion of the Isle of Skye in Scotland. Sign up to the mailing list at <a href="http://celticinvasion.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">celticinvasion.com</a>.   Notes: * Helping you celebrate Celtic culture through music. My name is Marc Gunn. I am a musician and podcaster. You can share this show and find more episodes at <a href="http://celticmusicpodcast.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">celticmusicpodcast.com</a>. And you can support this show on Patreon. If you're new to this show on iTunes or elsewhere, I welcome you. My goal is to bring together small indie Celtic bands with Celtic music fans. So each week, I share an hour-long episode packed full of amazing indie Irish and Celtic music. Most of the bands, you have probably never heard of. Yes, there some that are turning heads in the Celtic music scene. But most are small. They don't have a record label. They can't afford a publicist. But the music is just as good. They deserve to be heard. So if this show moves you, please do us all a BIG favor and SHARE IT on social media. Or tell a friend. Help spread the word. Now with every episode I ask you to vote for your favorite bands in that episode. At the end of the year, I compile all of your favorites into this show--the Celtic Top 20. These are the Top 20 Celtic bands that you thought were the best in 2016. When you're done listening, go cast your vote. Then listen to past episodes and to the same. You can do all of that on the website at <a href="http://celticmusicpodcast.com/vote/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">celticmusicpodcast.com/vote/</a>. * CELTIC PODCAST NEWS: We have a new YouTube Channel. <a href="http://celticmusicpodcast.com/youtube" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">To subscribe, follow this link</a>.

Gypsy Lee from Piatt, IL posted on Facebook: "So glad that I found this podcast! I often listen to it whilst drifting off to sleep. At the moment, I'm listening to it whilst cleaning my art studio. Thank you for all the lovelies, as it reminds me of my dear Granny, whose family came through the Appalachian Mountains from County Wicklow to settle in Illinois in the 1800's. Many blessings" Anthony Becker posted a comment to SONIC IMPULSE and tagged us: "Heard your music on Irish &amp; Celtic Music Podcast. Album purchased! Page liked! Hope to hear more of this amazing music in the future!" He did the same with Ed Miller: "I heard Ed Miller on the Irish &amp; Celtic Music Podcast and had to immediately buy an album. Now I see this page with amazing photos of Scotland! Reminds me I need to get there someday soon." Kersti Luik commented on Patreon: "Great show, as usual. Listened while cleaning up my place. I had time to actually listen to it, not just hear it, as when I do my school work. All the best greetings to you and our fellow invaders. So sorry I have been too busy with my studies and had no time to contact, but I'm thinking about you all :) Longing to see you one day!"   This Week in Celtic Music 0:37 "Hummingbird" by <a href="http://www.gothardsisters.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Gothard Sisters</a> from single 5:37 "Passing Train Juniper Jig" by <a href="http://celticmusicpodcast.com/HeidiJane" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Heidi-Jane Schwabe</a> from Bonus Tracks 10:22 "Are You Alright, Liz" by <a href="https://www.seattlerazors.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Ockham's Razor</a> from Job's Comforter 15:13 "Shandon Bells Set" by <a href="http://betterthanitsounds.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Black Market Haggis</a> from EP 18:50 "Fiddler's Green" by <a href="https://www.stanleyandgrimm.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Stanley &amp; Grimm</a> from Another Round 22:48 "Planxty Irwin" by <a href="http://www.sarahmariemullen.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Sarah Marie Mullen</a> from We Brought the Summer With Us 27:44 "Strathmartine Mains (Love and Freedom)" by <a href="https://www.skeletonmckee.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Skeleton McKee</a> from Leave The World Laughing 30:02 CELTIC PODCAST NEWS 32:01 "Chloe's Passion" by <a href="http://www.burningbridgetcleary.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Burning Bridget Cleary</a> from These Are the Days 36:07 "I Know My Love" by <a href="http://www.innisfallmusic.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Innisfall</a> from Innisfall 39:30 "Spotted Dog/The Swallow's Tail/Donegal Lass" by <a href="http://www.reeltreble.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Reel Treble</a> 41:38 "Up High" by <a href="http://www.lizschettner.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Liz Schettner</a> from Up High (EP) 46:44 "The Fiery Warlocks" by <a href="http://www.faerydae.nl/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Faerydae</a> from Changeling 50:21 "Tonight It's Joy" by <a href="http://corktownpopes.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Corktown Popes</a> from And Also With You 54:52 CELTIC FEEDBACK 57:20 "Angel" by <a href="http://www.rachelhair.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Rachel Hair Trio</a> from Tri 1:01:06 "Seeds of Sorrow" by <a href="http://www.youngdubliners.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Young Dubliners</a> from Nine 1:04:08 "Obair Oidhche" by <a href="http://niteworksband.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Niteworks</a> from NW 1:09:06 "Bold O'Donahue" by <a href="http://spiritedlads.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Spirited Lads</a> from Spirited Lads 1:11:40 "Lost in Cork" by <a href="https://www.getupjackband.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Michael DeAngelis</a> from Son of a Dunigan 1:16:52 "I Drove My Father to Drink" by <a href="http://www.syrmusic.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Syr</a> from Home 1:21:18 "Guinness For Two" by <a href="http://www.steelcityrovers.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Steel City Rovers</a> from Grand Misadventures <a href="http://celticmusicpodcast.com/vote/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">VOTE IN THE CELTIC TOP 20</a>.

I've been listening to you for years, I can't remember when or where I first picked the podcast up, and I've been meaning to write in for ages but I always chickened out, always that is until now. In your last episode a trans woman wrote in and said she's had a hard time finding others like herself in the audience, so being a trans woman myself I took that as a sign it was time to speak up. Your podcast has always brought warmth into my life from things as mundane as tending the fire pit to as exciting as my recent cross-country bus ride to meet my boyfriend face-to-face for the first time. Your chipper positivity has been a beacon of light in a dark world, and when I'm constantly surrounded by people that choose hating their enemies before loving their friends and who insist every single facet of life has to be a political statement, I'm glad I still find refuge here. There's no left or right, no black nor white, No red against blue we don't fight over hue We're just here to play so sing here all day shed your dismay in Gunn's name I say; Have a beautiful Yule today." #celtictop20 #bestcelticmusic #topcelticmusic

You can send a written comment along with a picture  of what you're doing while listening. Email a voicemail message to celticpodcast@gmail.com Henry Meger emailed: "Dia dhuit, Marc, I discovered your podcast last spring and have been entranced and charmed with it ever since as I catch up to date. Just wanted to send some personal thanks. My father has been playing Celtic guitar for most of his life and all of mine, so it's been in the house since day one. I thought I had heard it all, each corner and subgenre to be found, but my library has been greatly and duly humbled by your extensive and seasoned pallet. I've shared the podcast and many of its contents with my dad, and it has enriched our Celtic cosmos remarkably. I took the podcast with me last summer while studying abroad in Russia and it was a wonderful way to keep in touch with my roots during my commute. Having also spent time in non-Celtic Spain, the Galicia episode opened another door in my musical conception of Iberia. In short, Thank you!! An amateur flute player myself, I would love to hear a flute-heavy episode, and I'm sure all musicians who listen to the podcast would love their own instrument-themed episodes. Just a thought that has crossed my mind (not that you don't have plenty already!) Keep up the fantastic work---it's very much appreciated!" Thank you Henry. I haven't done a flute or whistle episode. Let me see what I can put together. I wish I had an easy way to search my archive for flute music. Sadly, I don't. But perhaps I can reach out to you and all my listeners. If you have heard some bands with flute or whistle, please email me the band names so I can make a possible list of the podcast. Jennifer Lohman emailed a picture: "While I am listening to your podcast from Terra Alta, WV (USA) 31 degrees here today-so the dogs &amp; I are staying in."  Stephen Reimann emailed: "Dear Celt Father, I am a big fan of your show and what you are doing to add breadth and depth to those who listen to Celtic music. I am an Account Manager for a major Pharmaceutical company which requires an extensive amount of driving.  By extensive I mean on average 60K miles each year.  Your podcast enables me to not only pass the time driving between accounts, but also increase my knowledge and love of all things musically Irish and Celtic.  The theme diversity of your shows is stellar.  Just like Christopher Walken’s SNL character, The Bruce Dickinson, needed “More Cowbell,” I need more bagpipes.  Any chance of another Bagpipe theme’d show in the near future? Thank you for all you do to sharpen our proverbial musical sgian-dubhs." Stephen “Bow Tie Steve” Reimann (Rye-man) Thanks Bow Tie Steve. Yeah. You can never have enough bagpipes. It will have to be a few months, but I'll add that to the list as well. Maybe I should add both this and the flute show as milestones... Would you be interested in another bagpipe show as well. Drop me a line.

Burly Bagpipe Music, 2-Hours! #222

On July 28, 2005, the Irish &amp; Celtic Music Podcast was born from my love of Celtic music. I had been cultivating that love through my Celtic Music Magazine which featured album reviews and free Celtic MP3 downloads from many of the bands on this podcast. The podcast quickly overtook the magazine in popularity. I had three main goals when I created this show. First, to help indie Celtic bands find new fans. Second, to give Celtic music fans a free, easily downloadable show where they could enjoy the music of their cultural heritage. Third, I wanted a Celtic radio show that was focused on the music. What's that phrase: "Less talk, more music". But I wanted it to be true. So I have long sets and usually short breaks where I share news and feedback. There are a bunch of additional reasons, including a latent desire to be a DJ. I'll tell you more about it later. In the meantime, I want to share with you some of the best Celtic music featured in the podcast over the past ten years. Every month, I host the Celtic Top 20 where I ask you to vote for your favorite songs in each episode of the podcast. I've done this since almost the first year. That's how I created this show. It's the songs that fans of the podcast voted for over the last ten years. I just went in and cut down ten hours of music to a meer three hours. I hope you will celebrate your love of Celtic music with me and these amazing Celtic bands with music from The Tea Merchants, Heather Alexander, The McDades, Colleen Raney &amp; Colm MacCarthaigh, Jamie Laval and Ashley Broder, Clandestine, Athas, Sligo Rags, Navan, Jimi McRae And Sam Okoo, Heather Dale, Hawp, The Merry Wives of Windsor, Round the House in the first hour. You'll hear The Elders, Mary Knickle, Kennedy’s Kitchen, Tara MacKenzie, Fiddler’s Green, Rising Gael, Rambling Sailors, Bow Triplets, Vicki Swan &amp; Jonny Dyer, Poitin, Ockham’s Razor, Gwilym Morus, LabGraal, The Selkie Girls in the second hour. Then we'll finish the show with Derek Warfield &amp; The Young Wolfe Tones, Maidens IV, The Gothard Sisters, The Killdares, Tullamore, Marc Gunn, Across the Pond, Anne Roos, Holly Kirby, Molly Bauckham, Tallymoore, Samantha Gillogly &amp; Tim Maurice, Stout Pounders, Rathkeltair, Black 47, The Rogues, Flashpoint.

On July 28, 2005, the Irish &amp; Celtic Music Podcast was born from my love of Celtic music. I had been cultivating that love through my <a href="http://celticmusicpodcast.com/subscribe/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Celtic Music Magazine</a> which featured album reviews and free Celtic MP3 downloads from many of the bands on this podcast. The podcast quickly overtook the magazine in popularity. I had three main goals when I created this show. First, to help indie Celtic bands find new fans. Second, to give Celtic music fans a free, easily downloadable show where they could enjoy the music of their cultural heritage. Third, I wanted a Celtic radio show that was focused on the music. What's that phrase: "Less talk, more music". But I wanted it to be true. So I have long sets and usually short breaks where I share news and feedback. There are a bunch of additional reasons, including a latent desire to be a DJ. I'll tell you more about it later. In the meantime, I want to share with you some of the best Celtic music featured in the podcast over the past ten years. Every month, I host the <a href="http://celticmusicpodcast.com/vote/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Celtic Top 20 where I ask you to vote</a> for your favorite songs in each episode of the podcast. I've done this since almost the first year. That's how I created this show. It's the songs that fans of the podcast voted for over the last ten years. I just went in and cut down ten hours of music to a meer three hours. I hope you will celebrate your love of Celtic music with me and these amazing Celtic bands with music from The Tea Merchants, Heather Alexander, The McDades, Colleen Raney &amp; Colm MacCarthaigh, Jamie Laval and Ashley Broder, Clandestine, Athas, Sligo Rags, Navan, Jimi McRae And Sam Okoo, Heather Dale, Hawp, The Merry Wives of Windsor, Round the House in the first hour. You'll hear The Elders, Mary Knickle, Kennedy’s Kitchen, Tara MacKenzie, Fiddler’s Green, Rising Gael, Rambling Sailors, Bow Triplets, Vicki Swan &amp; Jonny Dyer, Poitin, Ockham’s Razor, Gwilym Morus, LabGraal, The Selkie Girls in the second hour. Then we'll finish the show with Derek Warfield &amp; The Young Wolfe Tones, Maidens IV, The Gothard Sisters, The Killdares, Tullamore, Marc Gunn, Across the Pond, Anne Roos, Holly Kirby, Molly Bauckham, Tallymoore, Samantha Gillogly &amp; Tim Maurice, Stout Pounders, Rathkeltair, Black 47, The Rogues, Flashpoint.

I hope the move went well Karl! John Thompson emailed: "Hey Marc, I was listening to episode 338 (Christmas show) of the Irish &amp; Celtic Music podcast and was blown away by the song "Glasgow Christmas Rain" by Highland Reign. I went on Youtube and watched just about every Highland Reign video I could find. Then I went to CD Baby, bought 3 of their CDs and downloaded a fourth. I'm going to post a message to their website to say how amazing they sound and that I heard them on YOUR show. They're from the midwest so I probably never would have discovered them without the Irish &amp; Celtic music podcast. (I'm in Philly and the only other Celtic group from the midwest I've run into in this neck of the woods is The Elders -- another fantastic band!). You ABSOLUTELY make a difference! I've been a Celtic music fan for a long time but have only been a listener and patron of the Irish &amp; Celtic Music podcast for the last few years. I wish I had found it sooner. Your podcast never disappoints!" Thank you SO MUCH, John! I love hearing about which bands and songs inspire you. And that you're actually buying music. Musicians have it tough in this day and age. I'm extremely pleased that the Irish &amp; Celtic Music Podcast can connect Celtic bands with Celtic music fans. It's a challenge. But that's why I am here. So keep listening. Keeping telling your friends about the show. And when this episode is over, go thank one of these bands for being awesome!

I hope the move went well Karl! John Thompson emailed: "Hey Marc, I was listening to episode 338 (Christmas show) of the Irish &amp; Celtic Music podcast and was blown away by the song "Glasgow Christmas Rain" by Highland Reign. I went on Youtube and watched just about every Highland Reign video I could find. Then I went to CD Baby, bought 3 of their CDs and downloaded a fourth. I'm going to post a message to their website to say how amazing they sound and that I heard them on YOUR show. They're from the midwest so I probably never would have discovered them without the Irish &amp; Celtic music podcast. (I'm in Philly and the only other Celtic group from the midwest I've run into in this neck of the woods is The Elders -- another fantastic band!). You ABSOLUTELY make a difference! I've been a Celtic music fan for a long time but have only been a listener and patron of the Irish &amp; Celtic Music podcast for the last few years. I wish I had found it sooner. Your podcast never disappoints!" Thank you SO MUCH, John! I love hearing about which bands and songs inspire you. And that you're actually buying music. Musicians have it tough in this day and age. I'm extremely pleased that the Irish &amp; Celtic Music Podcast can connect Celtic bands with Celtic music fans. It's a challenge. But that's why I am here. So keep listening. Keeping telling your friends about the show. And when this episode is over, go thank one of these bands for being awesome!

Is there one specific show dedicated to Celtic harp music?" Catherine Koehler emailed a reply to my reply: "How providential that you responded tonight...the very night that i was writing YOU, lol.

I love the variety of music and love listening to the podcasts. For Christmas I got some Bluetooth headphones and have been listening to the podcast while watching college football bowl games. It has been rather fun watching the action on the field with such great music on instead of listening to the commentary." John Helminski emailed: "Hi Marc, Thanks for your great podcast. Is there one specific show dedicated to Celtic harp music?" Catherine Koehler emailed a reply to my reply: "How providential that you responded tonight...the very night that i was writing YOU, lol. I was at the best pub in Louisiana this weekend, Enoch's Irish Pub and Grill of Monroe, LA, and made sure the podcast was well represented.  I'm sending along a few pics of the podcast sticker that was ceremoniosly placed by Enoch's wonderful daughter Molly .  In her words " we're placing it down low so everyone can see it!"  Fyi...it is in front of everyone who stands in line for the rest room!!
