Funny Irish and Celtic Songs

Greetings

Yesterday, I pulled a terrible April Fool's trick on my fans. I told them my old band was getting back together... I felt a little terrible, especially as they started responding with comments like "Please tell me this is not an April Fool's joke" and "I cried a little. Let's just leave it as... it was all in the name of comedy. :)

That's what this week's show is all about. I play a lot of comedic Celtic music. My last album was called SCI FI DRINKING SONGS after all. I took some traditional Celtic songs and turned them into songs about Star Wars, Star Trek, Firefly, zombies and Muppets. However, I'm not the only Celt with a sense of humor. I still remember the first time I heard Ed Miller sing "The Devil Made Texas". That's one of the songs that made me fall in love with his vast repertoire of Scottish songs.

This #CelticThursday continues the April Fool's Day celebration with some Celtic comedy. You can find out all about this week's show below. Smile and laugh today. Then bring a smile to others as well. SHARE the podcast!

Slainte!
