CELTIC PODCAST NEWS

* Helping you celebrate Celtic culture through music. My name is Marc Gunn. I am a Celtic and Geek 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.

We have another special guest host this week on the show. Shannon Heaton returns to share music from her Irish Music Stories podcast. If you haven't checked out this show, you should. It's a beautiful look at the traditional music of Ireland. Go to IrishMusicStories.org to subscribe.

We had a little bit more room on this episode. I want to share a song by Shannon Heaton. She focuses on the stories of others. So I thought she deserved a shout out for her incredible songs.

"Cruel Salt Sea" is a great story ballad about a woman who makes a bad decision—and then uses her wits to get out of trouble! It's from her album Tell You in Earnest.

Check out "The C-Word", an episode of the Irish Music Stories where Marc Gunn is a guest.

You can also check out the "Heartbeat of Ireland" episode.

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.
