Pub Songs Podcast #177: Irish American Music for St Patrick’s Day

Pub Songs Podcast #177: Irish American Music for St Patrick’s Day

If it wasn’t for America, the traditional music of Ireland might no longer exist. America saved Irish music. That’s the premise behind my 2014 album I recorded with Jamie Haeuser, How America Saved Irish Music. I expected more of a backlash when I released the album title that was a parody of the book How the Irish […]

Pub Songs Podcast #175: Celtic Music & the Dark Side of the Pub
