Centuries of agrarian life ensured that Irish and Scottish musicians saw animals daily, and as a result, Celtic music is full of songs and tunes featuring animals of all types. This week, Katie Marie and Joe spin up an hour of music featuring animals wild and domestic, feathered, hoofed, and finned.
Our artists for this show: Wolf & Clover, Angelina Carberry, Preston Howard Wilde, Seamus Begley & Tim Edey, Liz Carroll, Barry Kerr, The Alt, Joe Burke, Slide, Frank Cassidy, Lily Gems & Eileen O’ Driscoll, Open The Door For Three, Mary McNamara & Sorcha Costello, Sásta, and New Road.
Our FairPle score this week: 47
