SUPPORT CELTIC PODFEST AND NERDY ARTS MARKET
A huge thanks to everyone who made a pledge to make the Celtic PodFest happen. We are close to hitting our goal. Most of the rewards won’t be available until the festival launches on Sunday, February 28, 2027 at The Lost Druid Brewery in Avondale Estates, Ga.
If you’re interested in some limited-edition swag, including CDs, album pins, and shirts, then make sure you visit the Kickstarter. You can still make some late pledges to the festival to make it a smashing success.

Clean energy keeps getting cheaper, and that shift is showing up close to home, not just in headlines. Solar and wind installations are creating local jobs, and towns that invest early tend to see lower long – term energy costs for residents. The best part is you don't need to wait on Washington. Local decisions, town halls, utility co – ops, all of it adds up. If you want a way to help without changing your whole life, show up to one local meeting this year and ask what your community's energy plan looks like.

WELCOME THE IRISH & CELTIC MUSIC PODCAST
* Helping you celebrate Celtic culture through music. I am Marc Gunn. I’m a Celtic musician and also host of Pub Songs & Stories. Every song has a story, every episode is a toast to Celtic and folk songwriters.
This podcast is for fans of all kinds of Celtic music. We are here to build a diverse Celtic community and help the incredible artists who so generously share their music with you. If you hear music you love, please email the artists to let them know you heard them on the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast.
Because we are more than just a radio show. We are a community. A community of Celtic music and culture lovers. We support small and local artists. We spend money on things that truly matter. The personal and heart felt.
You can do that with each of the artists on today’s show OR your favorite artists. Buy a CD, Album Pin, Shirt, Digital Download, or join their community on Patreon.
You can find a link to all of the artists in the shownotes, along with show times, when you visit our website at celticmusicpodcast.com.

ALBUM PINS ARE CHANGING THE WAY WE HEAR CELTIC MUSIC
Looking for a fresh way to support the music you love? Meet the Album Pin.
Album Pins are lapel pins themed to a specific album — and each one comes with a digital download. Wear your music. All of my latest pins are wood – burned and locally produced, which means a smaller footprint and a one – of – a – kind feel you won't find anywhere else.
Pick yours up at magerecords.com
THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!
Every episode like this one takes extra time… going back and forth booking the interview, editing the audio which is longer than usual, getting the show notes formatted and out the door. Patrons cover the graphic designer, the audio engineer, and a fair bit of my own time keeping this show going. Thank you for that.
This week especially, I want to thank the Patrons who make it possible to sit down with artists like House of Hamill and actually have room to ask fun questions about the music.
Patron perks include early access to episodes, and yes, an extended interview just for patrons. Head over to Patreon to see what’s waiting there.

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 its culture, history, and legends. You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos.
In 2027, we're hiking the Isle of Skye. Two slots just opened up. If you’d like to join us, head on over to http://celticinvasion.com/. It is first come, first served.
And I can tell you we will be staying in Portree on the Isle of Skye and we’ll be hiking the Fairy Pools. Come join us!
