Show 207 – St Patrick’s Day
(2022-03-12)

posted in: Past Shows

Every March, Katie Marie and Joe put together a playlist of Irish artists for St Patrick’s Day. Although in the US, the holiday has evolved into an excuse to color everything green and drink heavily, we see it as an opportunity to listen to high-energy music perfect for dancing and laughter with good friends.

Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with these artists: NicGaviskey; The Alt; Peter Carberry, Angelina Carberry, and John Blake; Patsy Touhey; Blackie O’Connell & Hugh Healy; The Chieftains; Matt Molloy & John Carty With Arty McGlynn; Niamh Dunne; Noel Hill & Tony MacMahon; Cillian Vallely; Planxty; Altan; Holly Geraghty & Jonathan Roche; Bridgetown; The Friel Sisters; and The Bothy Band.

The FairPlé score this week: 44
