TRAVEL WITH CELTIC INVASION VACATIONS
Every year, I take a small group of Celtic music fans on the relaxing adventure of a lifetime. We don't see everything. Instead, we stay in one area. We get to know the region through it's culture, history, and legends. You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos.
2019 is the Celtic Invasion of Star Wars. 2020 is the Origins of Celtic Invasions. You can find out more about these two exciting trips. Join the invasion at http://celticinvasion.com/
THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!
I don’t know about you. But I am not a fan of corporate influence. Certainly not in politics, but also not in the music I create and share. That’s one of the reasons that the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast supports independent Celtic musicians. I want to help the artists who don’t have a record label or a giant production company behind them. They are doing everything themselves. Your support of this podcast helps with that mission.
This show is listener supported. Instead of trying to find advertisers, I've decided to let your generosity fund the creation, production, and promotion of the show. You'll get episodes before regular listeners, discounts on merch, and when we hit a milestone, you get extra special episodes, including a bonus episode of the Celtic Christmas Podcast that will come out next month.
I want to thank our newest patrons of the podcast: Kevin H. and Michelle S.

Ian Shaw emailed from Shanghai: “Hi Marc, Start by saying you make a fantastic Podcast giving the lesser known bands good air time.
I am a Ships Captain and come from Scourie (pronounced SCOWRIE) just up the coast from the Isle of Skye. I presently supervise the shipbuilding of the world’s largest stainless steel chemical tankers in Shanghai China. Just small enough to squeeze through the “old” Panama canal. ( 600 foot long and 106 foot wide)
I could not help but smile when I listened to your discussions regarding the Skye midges which you encountered last summer. They are at their worst when peat cutting in the highlands.
I discovered your podcast last March when I decided to try and change my lifestyle after my best friend died from a heart attack. Thanks to your great selection of music which I listen to every morning/night as I speed walk the 40 minutes from my Chinese home to the shipyard. I have now lost 20Kg ( 20% of my original body weight) and got my general health in order. I am now completing marathons instead of lying on the sofa drinking beer. Hope your daughter is recovering after her operation
Thank you Marc….keep up the great work, I have found many new bands to listen to by purchasing their music.
