Olivia Bradley | Atlanta Celtic Music
I know very little about the Atlanta Celtic music scene. That’s one of the reasons I hired Catherine Tully to write some articles about the scene. I moved to Atlanta almost three years ago. The bands I used to know are no longer performing together. I wanted to get to know my new community. And […]
The Reel Sisters | Atlanta Celtic Music
