It’s cold and snowy, and it’s approaching the Winter Solstice, so Katie Marie and Joe put together an hour of music that seems appropriate for Midwinter. So…when is Midwinter? It depends on who is celebrating it. It can be the Winter Solstice, or the Christmas season, or it’s the span of time from mid-January to mid-February. Whenever you opt to observe Midwinter, we have the soundtrack for you.
The artists this week: Lúnasa; Shantalla; Siucra; Kathryn Tickell & Peter Tickell; Adrianna Ciccone & Ellen Gibling; Aidan Connolly; Breabach; Kirsten Easdale; fernhill; Figgy Duff; Keith Hinchliffe; Lucie Périer; and the Alan Kelly Gang.
