The Spring Equinox slipped by right after Saint Patrick’s Day, with a promise of rebirth, renewal, and the coming of Spring. Katie Marie and Joe put together a set of Spring-themed Celtic music. Even if you’re in the West, where winter never happened, or in the East, where winter definitely happened, we hope that this hour gets you in the mood for budding trees and new-mown meadows wherever you are.
