A note for Artists:

Would you like to have your music included on a future Celtic Folk Podcast?  Just email us or submit a song to us through Sonicbids.

 

Please help us support these fine artists by taking a look at their websites, buying their music or at least let them know how much you enjoyed listening to their music on the Celtic Folk Podcast.

The very first episode of the Celtic Folk Podcast is in the works and will be available next week.  We have a fun line-up for the first show and are just now putting it all together.

It has been slightly longer than expected due to a hard drive failure on my laptop (on which I do my final mixing), but the content is ready to go and I can’t wait to start sharing all the great music we have with you.

So, we’re almost ready!
