Interview by Angela CroudaceAs the iconic Dropkick Murphys gear up for their long-awaited tour in Australia, HEAVY had the pleasure of sitting down with Tim Brennan, the band's talented multi-instrumentalist. We discussed the upcoming shows, the band's musical journey, and the unique influences that shaped their sound.We kicked off the conversation about Dropkick Murphy's long-awaited return to Australia. When asked if Tim was excited about the long journey, he responded, "Yes, super excited about the long flight," he joked, despite the reality of being six and a half feet tall in cramped airplane seats. "It's going to be top-notch, but I'll tell you, all joking aside, the flight is the worst." However, the anticipation of touching down in Australia quickly outweighed any discomfort. "At least once we get off that plane, we're in such an amazing place."This time round, the tour features Alkaline Trio as the support act, a decision that Tim enthusiastically explained. "The last time we did anything with Alkaline Trio was in Australia… getting to see them and hang with those guys was a pleasure," signalling the eagerness of both bands to reignite on stage.As we dove into Tim's musical background, he shared his early experiences with traditional Irish music. Although his parents weren't particularly musical, his mother's love for the genre and his grandparents' influence laid the foundation. "Traditional Irish music was on a lot. For whatever reason, I took to it; I always liked it as a kid." This early exposure blossomed into a passion, especially after an inspiring encounter with his English teacher, who introduced him to The Pogues. "It sounds like hyperbole, but it totally changed my life."Tim's journey into the Dropkick Murphys began when he connected with Mark O'Rell during their teenage years. After a few years apart, Mark invited him to join the band on the Warped Tour in 2003. "I was 20 years old… I had a great time. That led me to joining the band full-time."As the conversation turned to their Australian tour set list, Tim was excited to reveal what fans can expect. "We've put out three records since the last time we were in Australia… we've got stuff from the very first things we ever did up until our latest album." The blend of new and classic songs promises an unforgettable experience for fans.Tim started his musical journey as a drummer, playing in various bands and selling merch for Warped Tour before having the opportunity to play with Dropkick Murphys, which saw him expand his instrumental repertoire, learning the tin pipe and banjo, amongst other instruments.Lately, Tim's been listening to The Pogues, especially as the season evokes nostalgic memories, "Always in November, December, I'm always heavily listening to The Pogues." He also shared his appreciation for the new Nick Cave record, which has led to him revisiting Nick Cave's entire discography, an excellent choice if I do say so myself.Tim had a heartfelt message for their Australian fans as we wrapped up the interview: "We're so looking forward to coming down and seeing everybody. Come out to the shows, and we're going to have a great time."With an unforgettable journey ahead, the Dropkick Murphys are set to deliver a show that celebrates their anthemic tunes while reconnecting with their loyal Australian audience.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.
This is the second story in my new series of short stories and is a traditional Irish tale. My wife and I recently completed our storytelling course with Storytellers of Ireland, so I decided to take what I have learned and apply those lessons here. Special thanks to my friend, Fr. Ryan Duns, who has allowed me to use his music for this series. He is offering a great service by keeping traditional Irish music alive and bringing it to a new audience. You can listen to his music and follow him here: Ryan G. Duns (Ryan G. Duns, SJ) - YouTube As always with More Christ, I hope this is for the glory of God and good of Man.

It was our 250th anniversary on our small family farm in New Hampshire—my kids are the 10th generation living on the farm. For musical entertainment, we had the Jordan TW Trio (led by Jordan Tirrell - Wysocki) and they were absolutely fantastic—everyone was up dancing and they ended the night with an beautiful acapella Parting Glass. I haven't heard them on the podcast yet so I figured I would put the plug in to get them in the rotation. Thank you for everything you do!"

Listen as Kevin leads you through a traditional Irish blessing to encourage you on your path of self-discovery. Kevin:May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face. The rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand. May God be with you and bless you. May you see your children's children. May you be poor and misfortune, rich in blessings. May you know nothing but happiness from this day forward. May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the warm rays of sun fall upon your home. And may the land of a friend always be near. May green be the grass you walk on. May blue be the skies above you. May pure be the joys that surround you. May true be the hearts that love you. Amen.

Traditional Irish band Gráda are reforming and returning to tour New Zealand in October. Two members of the band, Gerry Paul and Andrew Laking are Kiwis. Gráda is known for its energy on stage. According to Gráda's Galway-based lead singer Nicola Joyce it's this energy that creates moments of empathy in the crowd. After Gráda disbanded in 2011, a song Joyce wrote for her new band The Whileaways, Toss the Bobbin, inspired an invitation from the University of Galway to contribute a chapter to Ionbhá: The Empathy Book for Ireland. Nicola Joyce has been described by The Wall Street Journal as 'a magnificent vocalist who sings with sheer beauty and poignancy'.

Please be aware the stories, theories, re-enactments and language in this podcast are of an adult nature and can be considered disturbing, frightening and in some cases even offensive. Listener Discretion is therefore advised. Welcome heathens welcome to the world of the weird and unexplained. I'm your host, Nicole Delacroix and together, we will be investigating stories about the things that go bump in the night, frighteningly imagined creatures, supernatural beings and even some unsolved mysteries but I promise all sorts of weirdness. So, sit back, grab your favorite drink, and prepare to be transported to today's dark Enigma.... And on today's Dark enigma well, I got an interesting listener suggestion, complaint, meh suggestion – They wanted to know why I haven't done any Irish stories – well honestly, because I have yet to perfect an Irish Brogue that isn't truly embarrassing, so here you go! So, with that said, we will still be playing our drinking game and as you know, the drinking game is only for those of us that are at home and have nowhere else to go tonight. The choice of libation, as always my darlings, is yours, so choose your poison accordingly… Alright, now for the game part how about every time I say Lir that will be a single shot and every time I say children, that will be a double shot. Now that the business end is out of the way we can jump headfirst into today's dark enigma… so don… your best Irish Kilt and a thick fisherman's sweater or Celtic tunic as we jump into today's offering of The Traditional Irish Legend The Fate Of The Children of Lir – oh and the Brogue still isn't worthy, so I won't be embarrassing myself by using it, sorry. Now at the time when the Tuatha de Danaan chose a king for themselves after the battle of Tailltin, and Lir heard the kingship was given to Bodb Dearg, it did not please him, and he left the gathering without leave and with no word to any one; for he thought it was he himself had a right to be made king. But if he went away himself, Bodb was given the kingship none the less, for not one of the five begrudged it to him but only Lir. And it is what they determined, to follow after Lir, and to burn down his house, and to attack himself with spear and sword, on account of his not giving obedience to the king they had chosen. "We will not do that," said Bodb Dearg, "for that man would defend any place he is in; and besides that," he said, "I am none the less king over the Tuatha de Danaan, although he does not submit to me."

It's easy to forget that most musical instruments start out as a block of wood. Slowly, and over time, they are manipulated into beautiful objects that make music. And this is very true in the case of the traditional Irish banjo, which are still handcrafted in Co. Galway today, and indeed for the past 40 years. But what is involved in the process? Tom Dunne was joined by Fintan Cussen of Clareen Banjos to discuss...

Making a Scene Presents Gerry Casey's Interview with Pat McManus Part 2Patrick Frances McManus was one of 6 children born into an incredibly talented musical family in Derrylin, Co.Fermangh, N.Ireland. Pat's father, John, and his mother Valerie were highly accomplished Traditional Irish music players, so it wasn't long before Pat and his two brothers, John and Tommy, were picking up all the instruments lying around the house and learning to play. By the age of 7, Pat had already performed on live T.V. and by 14 he was All-Ireland Fiddle Champion. Aged 20, Pat somehow stumbled across a band called Horslips. As Horslips were a Celtic rock band, the 3 brothers could relate to their music and quickly became big fans and later attended so many gigs that they formed a friendship with the guys in the band. The brothers soon swapped their Fiddles, Uilleann Pipes and Bodhrans for electric instruments and formed their first band called – Pulse, with Pat on Guitar, John on Bass & Vocals and Tommy (who was only 12 at the time) on drums. During an interview with Radio Luxembourg , Dj – Tony Prince, who remarked how young they all were, jokingly called them Mamas Boys – the boys changed their name. It was just meant to be an ‘of the cuff' remark but the name stuck and soon the 3 brothers were officially known as Mamas Boys.

This recording from November 18 2021. Signum master's student Eugene Sullivan will present his thesis “Red Indians in Middle Earth: The Woses of Drúadan Forest and the Racial Landscape of Tolkien's Legendarium” and respond to questions from the audience in an interactive Thesis Theater. The discussion will be facilitated by Eugene's thesis supervisor, Dr. Sara Brown. Abstract: The shift from the mythological mode of The Book of Lost Tales and the early Silmarillion, to the novelistic mode of The Lost Road and The Lord of the Rings brought the Men of Middle-earth into sharper focus. The Lord of the Rings is, as Tolkien noted, “a Mannish affair”. In populating Middle-earth with Mannish cultures, Tolkien drew on many sources for inspiration, both historical and literary. For the Woses, who appear unexpectedly from the forest in The Return of the King to help bring the Rohirrim to the aid of Gondor, Tolkien looked to a cultural depiction that had captured his interest as a child: the Red Indian. As depicted in The Lord of the Rings, these people are the inheritors of a complicated legacy of stereotypes that reaches back through the Piccaninnies of J. M. Barrie's Peter Pan, through the Mohicans and Hurons of Cooper's Last of the Mohicans, to the travelogues and romances generated by the interactions between European settlers and the Indigenous inhabitants of North America. This thesis explores the history and characteristics of the Romantic Indian trope, and the ways in which their presence, and Tolkien's attempt to explain that presence, alters the cultural landscape of all three Ages of the history of Middle-earth. About the Presenter: Eugene Sullivan earned his BA in English from UC Santa Barbara. He is a lifelong fan of Tolkien, and was a regular listener of the Tolkien Professor podcast before beginning the Masters program at Signum University. He is employed as a System Engineer at Sony Pictures Entertainment, and also plays guitar in a Traditional Irish band. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife, two kids, and two dogs. About Signum Thesis Theaters: Each of our master's students writes a thesis at the end of their degree program, exploring a topic of their choice. The Thesis Theater is their opportunity to present their research to a general audience, and answer questions. All are welcome to attend!

From recalling the formation of the Ballinakill Ceilidhe Band in the 1920's to local heroes Michael & Paddy Rafferty and Johnny Broderick, Martin has brought the richness of the past to life.

This week we cover the "Leprechaun" franchise. There are 8 movies total. They take Lep to Las Vegas, space and twice to the hood. We also get an origin story (that really has nothing to do with Lep). The last entry is a sequel to the first movie (ignoring the rest of the franchise). The greedy, wise cracking little dude actually grows on ya after a while. I would suggest watching the first movie, then "Return", then "Leprechaun In The Hood". And if you're looking for more, check out "Leprechaun 3" and "Back To The Hood". And in honor of Lep, here's a few tradition Irish foods. Check them out here They include: soda break, Irish stew, boxty, coddle, barmback and black and white pudding. Photo Credit: Here

Declan Synnott is not only a gentleman, he’s also scholar – with an actual PhD in Punk. I know I’ve talked about my own perceived parallels between Punk and Traditional Irish music many times in the past, but I think this is the most in depth and articulate it has ever come out. Featuring tracks by Cock Sparrer, Christopher Lee, Crass, Jimmy Crowley, Christy Moore, Extravision, Frank Harte, Rudimentary Peni, Los Crudos and the Pecker Dunne.
In this week's Spotlight Montana Traolach O'Riordain, the director of the Irish Studies program at the University of Montana, introduces us to some very special guests. They share with us a performance featuring traditional Irish songs, including one song with a special link to Butte. Also, hear about Montana's Irish history, a new class being offered in the Irish Studies program and plans for a Montana St. Patrick's Day virtual concert.

Mr. Henry, Mr. Fite love hanging out with you. The Music Podcast for Kids! Hello and welcome to The Music Podcast for Kids we're your hosts Mr. Henry and Mr. Fite - Music educators extraordinaire! The Music Podcast for Kids is a fun and educational podcast where we learn and explore the best subject ever - music! On today’s episode, we are learning about Music of Ireland Part 2. In this episode we continue our journey and even get to interview an Irish music specialist to learn more about music of Ireland. And now, the music joke of the day. We love jokes, so if you have a joke, please visit our website themusicpodcastforkids.com to submit your joke. And guess what? It doesn't even have to be a music joke; it can be any joke. We will read and enjoy your joke on the podcast and also let everyone know who it came from and where you are in this great big wonderful music world. Our joke of the day is... Well first we just wanted to say that we have been getting your jokes, which is awesome. So keep them coming. Here are a couple from our listeners. This joke today comes from Niko. Okay what is Beethoven's favorite fruit? Banana banana. Great joke, Niko. This joke comes from Emma. What is the mountain that sleeps forever? Mount Ever-rest. Make sure to send in your jokes by visiting our website: themusicpodcastforkids.com. A link to the website can be found in the show notes. And now, the music word of the day. In part one of the Music of Ireland adventure we discussed meter as the music word of the day. We further discuss the meter of music from Ireland in our continuation of the journey today so wanted to recap the word meter. There are many sides to meter, but the one angle to recap on is the combination of how music sounds and its relation to meter. If you hear music that has a marching feel to it, it’s using in meter of 2. If you can hear music that makes you sway back and forth, it can be in a meter of three or a compound meter which we discuss further in today's episode. And music that makes you want to bop your head while you dance is in the most common meter of Western music...meter of 4. Another word to discuss today is the drone...and not like a drone that flies around and also not like when someone keeps droning on and on and on about their life story- like that one time when I was riding my bike on the fresh new pavement that the pavement guy just put down, such a nice smooth ride on my super sweet bike, so excited to get out on the fresh new, hot blacktop, I didn't even put my shoes on, and of course I had to stop to see something, so as I stopped I hopped off with my bear feet right on the fresh new Hot blacktoooooaaah. Mr. Q: Hey Mr. Henry! Me: Oh hey there Mr Quarter, well you scared me. Mr. Q: Well Mr Henry, you keep droning on and on about your life story while we are trying to learn the music word of the day...drone. Me: Oh right I got a little carried away with that story... Mr. Q: Yeah, so about that story Mr. Henry Me: oh yeah...that story...um… Mr. Q: Sooooo, you walked on hot blacktop...with no shoes...didn't you Mr. Henry Me: Ummm well… uhhh..yeah let's get back to the music world of the day: Drone. In music a drone is a note or couple of notes that is held out for a long period of time. The note sustains. Let's take a listen to this drone…. We will learn about this instrument from Ireland today, that has a bottom end note that sustains or is held continuously, as the other notes are played over top Awesome! And that’s the: “Music Word of the Day!” Thank you so much for listening. We hope you are enjoying the show so far.

Bill: Alrighty then, got some food and ready to roll. Bruce: Ah great, I'm starving. Well we best get on our way Mr. Hairylegs. Hairy: Have a great trip! Bruce: Thanks! Bill: Yeah thanks Mr. Hairy Legs, oh and sorry again for smacking ya with the sand anchor… whoops...yeah... Bruce: So how many more days until we reach Ireland… Bill: Well let me look at the hot air balloon app I downloaded...looks like… hmmm it says no map available for this long of a trip…? Bruce: What? Oh boy... Bill: Oh, I’m sure my signal is just weak is all..once we get back up there it’ll kick back in...no worries… here we go!!! (in a goofy voice) Two Hundred, twenty five days, 4 hours, twenty five minutes, and 32 second…later... 33 seconds...ummm 34 seconds… and… there's.. Bruce: (annoyed) Ok...Mr. Henry….maybe we put the penny whistle away…..phew are we there yet? I’m kinda getting sick of these granola bars. Bill: Wait a tick! I think I see it….IRELAND Bruce: Wow...IRELAND. Look at those cliffs? Bill: Yeah those are the cliffs of moher. See I knew we would make it. Bruce: Yeah I guess you were right. Bill: Ok, let's make sure we land this thing nicely…. Lift this thing up... And throw out the sand anchor and…. (throws and hits Bruce: Look out! (smash) Bill: . Mr. Harylegs? Bruce: Yeah Mr. Hairylegs? How did you get to Ireland? Hariy: Well, when you said you were going to Ireland, I decided to get on a plane to check it out. Been here for almost 6 months now. I love it! Bruce: 6 months?? You mean we have been in the hot air balloon for 6 months? Mr. Henry! Bill: Oh yeah, it went by fast though Mr. Fite...time flies when…. your having….fun..hey what's that sound? Bruce: Wow cool. Those are the uilleann pipes. They are just like bagpipes. Bill: A yeah bagpipes...that's when you have a bunch of little pipes in a big bag and you shake it around like a percussion instrumen…? Why are you looking at me that way Mr. Fite? Bruce: Oh boy Mr. Henry...no bagpipes sound like this….. (bagpipe sound).......to play bagpipes you use your air to fill up a bag, then you press the bag with your arm as you place your fingers on different holes to create different notes and sounds. Bill: Oh cool….I hear a droning sound too. Bruce: Yeah, exactly. We learned about the drone sound when learning about Music of India, in episode number 7. Bill: Right! The droning sound is when you have a continuous note or set of notes that constantly play while the melody or tune is performed. Bruce: Right! We hear a drone in the bagpipes as well. Bill: The bagpipes and uillena pipes are a little different. To play the bagpipes the musician uses their air to fill up the bag, but the uilleann pipes do not require the musician to blow into the bags, rather there are bellows that are pressed by the arm to generate the air into the instrument. Bruce: Bellows? Hairy: Elbows? Bill: No Mr. Hairylegs….not elbows. Bellows. A bellow is a device that you press together to create a large amount of air. Bellows are found in the uilleann pipes to pump air into the instrument making that cool sound. Bruce: Pretty cool stuff. Bill: Oh I hear more music coming from that restaurant over there...let's go check it out. Bruce: Yeah, lets get some food too! Bill: Oh yeah I am starving. (music plays) Boy that music sounds great. Traditional Irish music is known for its storytelling. Bruce: Yeah for sure and a traditional music session or play along is known in Irish as a seisiun (sheh-shun). Bill: Sweet looks like there is a violin, acoustic guitar, bodhran and that little box thing with buttons on it? Bruce: Ahh yes, that's the concertina. The concertina became more popular in a revival of traditional irish music. The concertina is also called a button accordion. There are a bunch of buttons that you press while squeezing the instrument back and forth to make a sound. Hairy: Makes me want to get up and do a little jig-a roonie Bruce: Yeah Mr. Hairylegs! Actually a jig is a type of music that has a certain feel, that in “total musical nerd” talk is in compound meter. Bill (nerd voice): Yes, compound meter or also known as compound time consists of a beat in a measure that is broken up into three separate parts. The numbers typically associated with compound meter include 6, 9, 12, 15 and more. Theoretically, compound meter could be translated into simple time but the use of…. Bruce: Ok..ok Mr. Henry, that probably went (phew) straight over our heads. Bill: . ah, yes sorry about that. Maybe we just focus on how compound meter sounds and feels. Bruce: Yeah, good thinking. We talked about meter as the music word of the day today. Compound meter has a sound like this….. When you hear music in compound time it usually has us swaying back and forth within our movement or dancing. Bill: Exactly, and the jig was a popular feel in Irish music that allowed people to dance and feel a certain way. Music is pretty powerful in its ability to get people to move and feel great while doing it! Hairy: Oh yes, I’m feeling happier and happier with this here jig! Bruce: Nice moves Mr. Hairylegs! Bill: Oh yeah get it going Mr. Hairylegs! Some of the most popular traditional irish bands are the Dubliners, Chieftains and Clancy Brothers. Bruce: Yuppers! So if you're ever in the mood for some great music, check out those cats. Bill: Cats? Ummm. they are not cats Mr. Fite Bruce: Oh, that's just a figure of speech...back in the day in jazz music they would call a cool musician “cats” which… oh boy...that confused look again...ok forget it. Bill: Yeah, Well, this has been a pretty cool adventure. So much cool music in Ireland. Let's sit and enjoy the music and food. Then! We will get back home in our hot air balloon. Bruce: The hot air balloon? Yeah right Mr. Henry, you won't drag me on that thing again. Bill: Oh come on we can play “What instrument does that cloud look like” the whole way home..it’ll be great, i ‘m getting pretty good at that penny whistle, oh then we can stop too see Paris, and Italy, and Greenland..oh and I always wanted to see Egypt and…. Bruce: And that's the...Together: Music of Ireland! The music podcast for kids is brought to you by Mr. Henry's Music World YouTube channel.

Marc has and continues his amazing, award-winning podcast called Irish and Celtic Music podcast. It was great to talk with Marc about the music of Ireland, so let's get to the chat! Hello Marc Gunn, and welcome to the Music Podcast for Kids! So Mark we always like to start out by asking our special guests about their music background as a child. So what experiences did you have as a child in the school setting and maybe outside of school as well? I didn't do much in school. Most of mine was outside of it. My family both my mom and dad, both played musical instruments so I played the piano. Got lessons for about a year. It didn't take very well, I didn't like to practice nearly enough, but it was a lot of fun. In high school I picked up the guitar and got lessons again outside of school and that cooked a little bit more aside from the problems with my guitar which was it was a really big instrument and cut off the circulation in my arm. So it wasn’t until college I think I really really started nailing down playing the guitar. So as a guitarist who were some of your big inspirations as you began your guitar career. It wasn't so much about playing guitar as it was being Elvis Presley. He was my idol growing up and so I wanted to be a songwriter like him. It wasn't much later that I realized that he didn't write any songs but I fell in love with this music and I I did it. The first thing I started learning was how to play songs by Elvis Presley. And it just went from there. Awesome. So the guitar you were performing in high school you were performing in college, but the instrument that you perform now is the autoharp. So yeah super interested in this instrument and kind of how it works and giving our listeners a little more idea of you know what it looks like and how it's played and things like that. So could you tell us more about the autoharp? Alright yeah the autoharp is a sort of triangular instrument. You usually find it like you know grade school but it's basically a very simple instrument because it's you press a button and it creates a chord and all you do is strum and it creates this gorgeous sound. It's got this very full body. It’s got five octaves. It’s based on the zither which is a much older instrument and about a thousand years old. But the modern adaptation started the late eighteen-hundreds 1890s. And it's just got a beautiful sound. And it's so simple to play. And again all you have to be able to do is press a button and strum and that strum will be everything in the cord. And it's just, it just sounds fantastic, it’s gorgeous. And having it being an instrument that is a little easier to play it would be a great instrument for kids to get just to start experimenting with things so yeah yeah that's cool. And actually Bruce I don't know if this was the deal for you, but when I so we're both Marc we’re both Elementary music teachers. Right and so I've been teaching for 15 years. When I first came there autoharps what must have been the rage. Like in elementary school for kids. Well they were like the ukuleles of today. The toughest part of the autoharp is the tuning. There are 36 strings and they go out of tune fairly easily. I spend at least a good 15 minutes making sure that the instrument is in tune before I even start playing. And once it's in tune you know it'll usually last at least a good solid 30 minutes if I’m not playing it too hard. But sometimes it'll go for the full hour or whatever before I have to sit back down and make sure all the strings are in tune. And you start hearing little notes out of tune in the process. So you went from being Elvis or wanting to be Elvis to Irish and Celtic music. So could you give us some insight on what instruments you might see in a traditional Irish Celtic band? Yeah, so the autoharp is not one. The autoharp is an American folk instrument created in the late 1800s. It’s based on a German design. Popularized through Sears catalog. And it’s not one of the instruments but it is a great singer's instrument, a great folk instrument. If you like to sing its a wonderful instrument to have. Now in the Irish music world typically, you're going to have one of my favorites which is the fiddle, the flute or the Penny Whistle, the Irish the octave mandolin and the mandolin, a derivative of the fiddle. You have also have uilleann pipes which are a form of bagpipes for the Irish. There's the Irish drum which is called the bodhran and those are the types of instruments you usually find in an Irish session. And you’ll also find a guitar. Guitar has become very popular as well. Although there’s usually a slightly different tuning from most guitars. Yeah that's cool. Something that I saw it with I was lucky enough to travel to Ireland and it was like an acoustic Duo and and I guess you could you know this could be all across the world but it was the first time I'd seen it. They had put a microphone inside the case of their guitar and they used that as the like and they would stomp on it. like oh nice yeah. I was like oh that's so cool like I never even thought to do that but it just fit that driving music so well that we find. In the musical styles that are most common in Ireland, you have the Reel and The Jig. and and when that sounds like a very much great tactic for a reel because reels are a driving four four beats you know. It’s got this really great driving sound. Whereas the Irish jig which has this lilting. Yeah that's cool. So, in jazz music players in other following types of form which for listeners that's basically a way of saying like the way the music's organized. Like when you're in that situation as a jazz musician everyone that you can understand where you are in the music and there's a lot of improvisation and even though it may not seem like to a listener watching that it might not seem like you're communicating but there's a high level of communication. Is there something similar in traditional Irish music? New Orleans was interesting to me, was one of the top three immigration spots for the Irish during the potato blight in the 1800s and a huge Irish influence in New Orleans. Which of course New Orleans is also where the place is considered the birthplace of jazz. I have a friend who actually wants to do a research paper on the idea that Irish music was one of the big influencers of jazz because musically yes Jazz has it definitely has a you know a solid form and such. Irish music has a very solid form as well. You know you have the reels in the Jigs and what not but there is less of the Improv aspect that you find in Irish music than Jazz. Usually what you'll have is a tune and the tune is a Melody that fits into a certain form again reels, jigs, polkas, mazurkas or whatever. They might be you're going to have all these very specific formats and then during the set you might change to a different tune and it might be the same key, might be a different key but it's very different. But at the same time if you know them once you know the melody you know it's very easy to follow along because all the sudden you're in that same format which is again it very much like the Jazz sessions where they might include a little bit more improv and variations and whatnot. In the Irish session you might have a little bit less of that but it's there still the same structure that the Jazz session will have so it's a really interesting comparison between the two I find. So you have a podcast called Irish and Celtic music podcast. So can you tell us more about the podcast and the mission that it has? So I started the podcast in 2005 in the early early early days of podcasting. Yeah I think it was you know less than a year into podcasting when the podcast started. And the show is a music podcast, it’s like a radio show and it features an hour-long show of music by Celtic musicians. And the idea is to celebrate Celtic culture through music. So now not all of the music is traditional Irish music like I was describing these reels & Jigs and such as a lot of songs is a lot of fun sing alongs which is one of the other big things about Irish music is the ballads and such. And a lot more fusions of traditional Irish songs and tunes with a contemporary music the Celtic Rock genre. And the various many different fusions of that. And so my podcast is centered around again celebrating all of these fusions and making them readily available no matter where you are in the world and no matter what style of Celtic music you have around the world because again there. When the Irish I put out a CD called how America saved Irish music and the idea is basically that did you know all this traditional Irish music came out of Ireland and went to the United States and Australia went to Germany and Italy went to Russia and Japan. And all these fusions came back and created an almost new style of traditional Celtic music. And such that the you know songs like Danny Boy one of the most famous quote unquote Irish songs is actually a song that was as an Irish Melody but it was written by an English lawyer. But it's become an essential part of Irish music world. And so it's fascinating again, the fusion of these cultures and by bringing them all together we are able to more greatly be able to appreciate and celebrate these different cultures with all the influences that have merged together and the diversity of Celtic music. Yeah that's something. Well Marc Gunn thanks so much for being on the show and that we wish you all the best in the future with your music with your podcast. So thank you so much.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Author modern Draoí – a practitioner and priest of native Irish magic and spirituality, Lora O'Brien! This is both a powerful conversation around cultural appropriation and the power in listening to native voices, but also a magical one filled with tales of deities and fairies. We can't wait for you to check it out! And be sure you head over and check out what else Lora is doing. Its all truly incredible! More about Lora and her work: Lora is an Author, Teacher, and Guide: born and raised in Ireland, with 25+ years personal and professional experience in our history, heritage, archaeology, mythology, and pre-christian Irish Spirituality. Book publications include - Irish Witchcraft from an Irish Witch, 2004 (2nd Edition, 2020); A Practical Guide to Irish Spirituality, 2013; Rathcroghan - a Journey, 2015; Tales of Old Ireland - Retold, 2018; Harp, Club & Cauldron - A Harvest of Knowledge [editor, essay], 2018; Politics, Kinship and Culture in Gaelic Ireland [essay], (Wordwell) 2018; A Practical Guide to Pagan Priesthood, (Llewellyn) 2019; and The Irish Queen Medb, 2020. She is a modern Draoí – a practitioner and priest of native Irish magic and spirituality. Lora has been consciously following a Pagan path since 1994, and dedicated specifically to the Irish Goddess Mórrígan in 2004. She managed one of Ireland's most important sacred sites - Cruachán/Rathcroghan - for a decade, and is a co-founder and Reverend legal celebrant with Pagan Life Rites Ireland. With her partner, Jon O'Sullivan (An Scéalaí Beag), she runs EelandOtterPress.net, and the IrishPaganSchool.com - an online learning environment where you can connect to the heritage, culture and spirituality of Ireland in an authentic and meaningful way, every day. Lora has three children, one grandchild… but never enough plants in her life to keep her happy. Though she’s not really one for a lot of responses to personal private messages - consider that your fair warning - you can find her in the comments section on her YouTube Channel content a couple of times a week, sending regular Irish Resources emails to her busy mailing list at LoraOBrien.ie, engaging with her Patron Members at Patreon.com/LoraOBrien, and personally moderating some very active community groups over on Facebook: The Morrigan’s Cave, Learn Ogham, Journeys in the Irish Otherworld, and the Irish Pagan School Community. If you would like a personal consultation with Lora, to answer your questions on Irish spirituality, you can access that service here - https://irishpaganschool.com/p/lora-q-a Want to book a reading with Emily or join The Forgotten Storytellers?

Testimonial time. Brooks set up my banjo last spring, and it’s played perfectly ever since. It always had some issues and I thought they were just quirks that I had to live with, but he easily took care of them all. That’s because Brooks has 20 years of experience making and repairing banjos and replicating vintage banjo hardware, all with raw lumber and brass stock. He’s taken apart just about every kind of open back banjo, so he knows what makes them tick. Brooks Banjos is a one-person shop! His banjos aren’t hurried in large batches; they’re made one by one with a masters’ precision, and when I say master, we’re talking 10,000 hours. For elegance through simplicity and reasonable prices (discounts available for performing musicians), get a Brooks Banjo.

Episode 23 – Spirit of PlaceKitty has a bee in her bonnet!The time has come to clear the air and take a look at one of the foundations of believing and understanding Faerie Folklore: Spirit of Place.*Traditional Irish and Celtic Folklore doesn’t bark or harangue us.It seeps, quietly, into the corners of our mind and memories.It speaks to each of us without prejudice.In this episode, Kitty ponders the experience of being an Irish, or Celtic, descendant and asks:Is it wrong, or offensive, for someone outside of Ireland to discuss Irish Folklore?Why do millions of Americans, Canadians and Australians feel such a powerful connection to the homeland of their Ancestors.What is Spirit of Place anyway, and what’s it got to do with Ancestral Memory?*As always, Kitty explains why it’s okay to feel passionately about the homeland of your Ancestors and encourages everyone to relax and keep an open mind.Read stories of encounters with the Good People, and share your own story of an encounter or perhaps one handed down through your family at www.encounterswiththegoodpeople.com .

This is the basic Irish music show , in dedication to the man who did such a show every Sunday afternoon for decades, bringing much joy and happiness with his incredibly exuberant personality. His loss is so greatly felt that I decided to start this show as a way of continuing the legacy he has left of Sunday afternoon Irish radio songs.
Zoe Conway is a gifted young musician living in Ireland. Steeped in the traditional fiddle music of her native land, she is also an accomplished classical violinist. I interviewed Zoe while attending the Clifden Arts Festival that is held each September in a lovely seaside town in Connemara in the west of Ireland. Zoe’s performance of a composition by Bill Whelan with the national RTE Orchestra is one I shall not soon forget.
These are two of most highly regarded traditional Irish musicians performing and teaching today. Mick Moloney was born in Ireland and now lives in the United States. Along with being a singer and player of the 4-string banjo and mandolin, he holds a doctorate in folklore from the University of Pennsylvania and regularly takes groups to Ireland to experience first-hand the music and culture of his native land. Born in New York City and then spending her childhood in San Francisco, Athena Tergis was classically trained on the violin but later fell in love with Irish and Scottish fiddle music. A former solo fiddler for the Broadway production of Riverdance, she tours with Mick Moloney and other musicians when not tending to her winery with her husband in the hills of Tuscany, Italy.

After finding her place in the Resistance, Jennifer has become an advocate for peace, love, justice, truth and equality. Jennifer has become an outspoken opponent to what she sees happening within the United States and seeks to further align herself on the right side of history. With this, Jennifer has taken up a personal crusade to wade through the nonsense of tweets, distractions and anti-Christian rhetoric to find deeper understanding and meaning within her own community as well as in other parts of the world. Jennifer understands her place and privilege in this world and uses her voice to stand up for others, whose voice is being silenced. Jennifer lives in Des Moines, with her roommate, little chihuahua Boo, and two furry feline toddlers, LooLoo and Eddy. In between faxes, phone calls and everyday resistance, you’ll find her singing, writing, listening to Traditional Irish music and teaching herself to play her Fender acoustic, Lochlann.

Email a voicemail message to celticpodcast@gmail.com Robert Eby emailed: "Thanks for your great work on the podcast, Marc! I love how much diversity of Celtic music you put into it. I especially love Celtic rock and you have a special hour just on that with bands I’m mostly unfamiliar with! Ed Miller used to host a Celtic segment on Austin’s NPR station, but he NEVER played anything with bagpipes. I have a theory that Ed Miller doesn’t like the bagpipes. But you, Marc, you aren’t afraid of anything!" You're very welcome Robert. That's one of the many things I love about this podcast. The diversity. That is what truly makes America great. A few years ago, I published my CD How America Saved Irish Music (listen to show #169). The main part of the story is that the Irish diaspora preserved traditional Irish music, which made it's way back to Ireland. But the other aspect is that we are melting pot of different cultures. And all of those influences end up in contemporary Irish & Celtic music, whether you're talking about rock'n'roll, R&B, jazz, country, bluegrass, hip hop, electronica. And it's brilliant. The traditional culture is important but so are the changes that affect the music every day. Without it, I would be playing the same 12 bands over and over again. As for Ed Miller, I love that theory. And I have a few vague memories of him cracking jokes about bagpipes which may confirm your hypothesis. If you're like Ed Miller or just like Ed Miller's music, he has a radio program called Across the Pond. It comes out on Sundays from 6-8 PM on Sunradio in Austin. And I *think* you can listen to it online. The Irish & Celtic Music Podcast exists on the generosity of our Patrons of the Podcast.

This New York quintet draws from a deep well of gospel, blues, bluegrass, and country influences to create timelessly resonant music that honors the integrity of its sources while remaining effortlessly contemporary. Emmylou Harris said of the band, "Every time I hear something on the radio I truly love, it's Ollabelle." The band has emerged from a five year period of great artistic and personal change - including marriages, births, tours and other projects - to deliver their most assured, deeply felt album to date, "Neon Blue Bird." The CD was produced by Ollabelle and recorded in Athens, NY and at Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock.
