Valentine’s Day is over, and you’re hung-over, the roses have wilted, and the chocolates have melted all over the passenger seat of your car. If this resonates with you, then this week’s show is for you! Katie Marie and Joe put together an hour of songs for which Celtic music is famous: the songs of unrequited love, murder, death, and heartache.
The artists this week: Stray Hens, Shannon, Lindsay Straw, Niamh Dunne, Len Graham, Beth, Patterson, Nuala Kennedy, Silly Wizard, Patrick Street, Altan, The Máirtín de Cógáin Project, Killarney, and Planxty.
This week, the FairPlé score is: 62
