Show 297 – Free For All
(2023-12-02)

posted in: Past Shows

This week, Katie Marie and Joe put together a Free For All show, which means there’s no theme this week–but we do have a bunch of brand new releases that we’ve been itching to get on the air, so you’ll be hearing a couple of new selections from each of the new albums from Lúnasa piper, Cillian Vallely, & David Doocey, Quebecois trio Genticorum; Chieftains’ lead singer, Kevin Conneff, & The Dublin Trio; Canadians Laura Risk, Nicholas Williams, & Rachel Aucoin; Scotland’s Mànran; and Raelach Records artists Pádraic Keane, Aidan Connolly, Fergus McGorman & Ruairí McGorman.

We also feature these artists this week: Siobhan And Murty, Artisan Row, FullSet, Niamh Ní Charra, Brid O’Gorman with Eoin O’Neill, and Tara Breen & Pádraig Rynne.

Our FairPlé score this week: 47
