WELCOME TO CELTIC MUSIC
* Helping you celebrate Celtic culture through music. I am Marc Gunn. I’m a musician and podcaster. I share my love of Irish and Celtic music from around the globe with you. I want to introduce you to some amazing Celtic bands and musicians.
The artists in this show need your support which you can do by buying their music or telling a friend about the band you found. You can find a link to all of the artists, along with show times and chapters for each song when you visit our website at celticmusicpodcast.com. You can also support this podcast on Patreon.
There’s a new episode of Pub Songs & Stories. I do a countdown of the Top 20 Celtic Bands of 2021. I also play a few tracks from some of those top bands. You can subscribe and listen at pubsong.com.
VOTE IN THE CELTIC TOP 20 FOR 2022
This is our way of finding the best songs and artists each year. You can vote for as many songs and tunes that inspire you in each episode. Your vote helps me create next year's Best Celtic music of 2022 episode.
But it also helps me populate a new playlist on Spotify. Every week, I am adding new tracks to the playlist, which started off featuring many of the Best Celtic Songs and Tunes of 2021. Last week, I added House of Hamill and Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh to that list. They had the top voted songs from the first episode of the year. Follow and Listen on Spotify.
Now just because they received lots of initial votes does NOT mean they will be a part of the Celtic Top 20. You can still vote for your favorite tracks for another couple weeks. So get those votes in ASAP. Then go vote for your favorites in THIS show. You do need to be a Patron of the Podcast. But you can Vote Right Now on Patreon! It’s really easy to do. It’s a simple poll. Just click it.
THANK YOU PATRONS OF THE PODCAST!

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. Learn more about the invasion at http://celticinvasion.com/
