Promote Celtic culture through music at http://celticmusicpodcast.com/. CELTIC PODCAST NEWS * Helping you celebrate Celtic culture through music. My name is Marc Gunn. I am a Celtic musician and podcaster. This show is dedicated to the indie Celtic musicians. I want to ask you to support these artists. Share the show with your friends. And find more episodes at celticmusicpodcast.com. You can also support this podcast on Patreon. I want to kick off this year celebrating the women of Celtic music. Women in music do not get nearly enough attention. One of my goals to remedy that is to do a special feature on women every three months or so. I dub this the year of the Irish & Celtic Women. If you want to get your music on the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast in 2019, head on over to 4celts.com. Complete the form and follow the directions to send in music. I'll get you on the show as soon as possible. Oh! And don't forget to read my free book on promoting Celtic music in the digital era. This is a great resource for your Celtic band. I am excited to announce a brand new year for voting in the Celtic Top 20. I made it even easier to vote in 2019. I know. How is that possible? Last year's was the easiest ever! This year, you don't have to limit yourself to one band or two bands. In fact, you can vote for as many artists as you'd like in each show. This should make it easier to vote. Here's how I recommend you vote. At the top of the shownotes of each episode, I list every artist in that is featured in that show. You just need to copy that list into a text file on your phone or wherever. When you find an artist who doesn't inspire, remove them from that list. At the end of the show, copy that list. Go back to the shownotes. A little down from the top of the shownotes is a link to go vote. Click the link. List the show number, paste your entire list of favorites. Add your name and email for verification. And voila. You are done. I had so many people say they couldn't decide who to vote for because there were so many great options. I decided to reverse the process. And I tried it out last year. I found this a TON easier. Now if you have your own method, or you just want to vote for your top top favorites. Cool! But this is a method that worked well for me! Give it a try. Then go vote at bestcelticmusic.net/vote/ 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.

You can send a written comment along with a picture of what you're doing while listening. Email a voicemail message to celticpodcast@gmail.com Catherine Koehler emailed a photo:"Having joined the Irish and Celtic Music Podcast last Friday, I received my first "official" Thursday podcast while at work teaching art to students throughout the state of Mississippi via virtual classroom. I have used Pandora for the past few years to pipe music into these rural and remote classrooms using the lesson to determine the music that is played. Graffiti lesson gets clean hip-hop, Romare Bearden gets Jazz, Kandinsky gets classical, and now evidently learning and painting the Color Wheel gets Celtic! The podcast arrived and I didn't want to wait to listen to it so we all went GREEN for the rest of the day! Makes perfect sense to me! Thanks for the wonderful collection of songs. I've been listening to all of the earlier podcasts as so many others have done. I truly didn't think there was a single song I have not heard of the Irish ballads but I've definitely found a few while listening. You really do a great job and I'm looking forward to a wonderful online future with the Irish and Celtic Music podcast. Blessings, Catherine Koehler Conrad Bear emailed photos: "Hi Marc! Listening to the podcast for this week makes washing dishes on a cool Ozark morning a great experience! Ha! My wife and I recently discovered your podcast and love it!"
