CELTIC PODCAST NEWS

* Helping you celebrate Celtic culture through music. My name is Marc Gunn. I am a Celtic musician and podcaster. This show is dedicated to the indie Celtic musicians. I want to ask you to support these artists. Share the show with your friends. And find more episodes at celticmusicpodcast.com. You can also support this podcast on Patreon.

The Irish & Celtic Music Podcast is here due to the generosity to not only our kind Patrons of the Podcast, but also to the generosity of Celtic musicians. Artists give us permission to play their music on our show. If you know of a Celtic artist that you think should be featured on the podcast, there's two things you can do. First, email the artist. Ask them to submit at 4celts.com. The form is quick and easy. They'll find out how to send music directly to the podcast. Second, drop me an email. Tell me you emailed the artist. And I can check in with them in a couple weeks.

Is Celtic Travel a priority in your life? It should be. I have an episode of Celtfather Music & Travel that talks a little about making it an important part of your life. Find the link in the shownotes. Starts at 4:57

TRAVEL WITH CELTIC INVASION VACATIONS

Every year, I take a small group of Celtic music fans on the relaxing adventure of a lifetime. We don't see everything. Instead, we stay in one area. We get to know the region through it's culture, history, and legends. You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos.

2019 is the Celtic Invasion of Star Wars. 2020 is the Origins of Celtic Invasions. You can find out more about these two exciting trips. Join the invasion at http://celticinvasion.com/

Scott McPhee emailed: "I discovered this podcast after it was mentioned in a column called RD Recommends in Reader's Digest.  From the podcast dated 18 January, 2018, I want to find out the titles of two songs that were played. One was by Screaming Orphans. The other was by The Founding."

Amy Goodwin emailed back in March: "Hi Marc, Caught a bit of your live feed last night- our delta internet couldn’t quite keep up with the live aspect. Managed to see a few songs- including the one about the cats knocking over glasses. As one who lives with toddlers, I found the song very relevant! We’ve been listening to the podcast the past weeks while decking the house out in green and getting out all of the kids’ leprechaun books. In case your kids are interested, a few of our favourites are Jamie O’Ruorke and the Pooka, Fiona’s Luck, and That’s What Leprechauns Do.  We were in B’ham last weekend for a birthday party and got to see some of the new Jetsons interstate construction y’all have going on. What an ambitious project!"

Amy Goodwin emailed: "Today, we’re listening to the podcast while... the small children are using the hose to “wash” the hammock.  husband is hunting the snake that threatens the chickens/kittens. I am getting ready to enjoy national wine day!"

Danielle Vergara emailed: "Hi Marc, I just wanted to write to you to thank you for this lovely podcast. There is such a great variety of music, and a great selection of artists. Being a 17-year-old visually impaired musician that plays a lot of Trad Irish music, it's wonderful to see a podcast that is dedicated to Celtic music! With that being said, I shall continue to be a listener, and this podcast shall continue to help me with schoolwork!"
