‘Tis the season! The veil between this material world and the spirit realms has grown thin, and Katie and Joe spin up some tracks to celebrate Samhain–pronounced “sah-wen”–also the time of Hallowe’en. We play tracks of autumn and the supernatural, and the Celtic tradition is full of wonderful songs and tunes weaving tales of the spooky, ethereal, bloody–in fact, we had so much from which to choose that it’s going to be a Samhain-heavy Raggle-Taggle show in five weeks.
This week, we play Dick Gaughan, Clandestine, The Corries, Lothlorien, Vintage Wildflowers, The Here & Now, The Young Tradition, Ann Gray, Shantalla, Christy Moore, John Roberts & Tony Barrand, Julie Fowlis featuring Eddi Reader, and Richard Neylon
