WELCOME TO CELTIC MUSIC

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

I’m looking for some good stories to share on our companion podcast. Pub Songs & Stories is a Virtual Public House for musicians to share the stories and inspiration behind their music. If you have a story that you’d like to share about a song, from a gig, or maybe even just a piece of Celtic history that you love. Drop me an email. Put “Pub Story” in the show subject. Tell me about your story. Maybe I’ll ask you to record your story for the show.

THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!

Because of Your kind and generous support, this show comes out at least four times a month. Your generosity funds the creation, promotion and production of the show. It allows us to attract new listeners and to help our community grow.

As a patron, you get to hear episodes before regular listeners. When we hit a milestone, you get an extra-long episode. You can pledge a dollar or more per episode and cap how much you want to spend each month over on Patreon. And if you pledge $5 or more per episode, you’ll also get the all new music-only episodes. I introduce the show, play non-stop music for nearly an hour, and then close the show. Plus, you’ll get access to hundreds of free MP3 downloads.

A super special thanks to our Celtic Legends: Dan mcDade, Morgan George, Samir Malak, Carol Baril, Michael Truman Cavanaugh, Miranda Nelson Designs, Nancie Barnett, Kevin Long, Lynda MacNeil, Annie Lorkowski, Travis Senzaki, Shawn Cali

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 its culture, history, and legends. You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos. Learn more about the invasion at http://celticinvasion.com/

Ihiru Art emailed some photos: "Hello from Colombia! Hi i just want to say thanks for your work, this music makes me happy and peaceful, I'm from Venezuela, Living in Bogotá/Colombia, i'm a musician too by the name of Ihiru, very influenced by the Celtic music and traditional Folk Venezuelan music and many other genres as Metal, Blues, Jazz, etc. I like to work on my plants and listen to your podcast, this music makes me feel that i'm in the woods in ancient times and I love that feeling, maybe it is a feeling of past lives. Send you pictures of the place where i like to work on my succulents and listen and a recording of the intro of one of my songs! Blessings"

Alexander Randall 5th,Patreon subscriber, emailed: "Hey Marc, I love your podcast. I work with words and listen in the background. I save them and reuse. But I feel inundated with other stuff that is mostly words and lyrics.

How can I get so I ONLY get the Irish and Celtic Podcast and nothing else?"
