Celtic Culture thru Christmas Cheer #90
<p>This is the final episode of Celtic Christmas Music for the year. One last gathering of songs, stories, and voices that remind us why this music matters… and why it's worth holding onto.</p> <p>Irish Christmas in America, The Shamrocks, Abbots Cross, Ashley Davis, The Irish Rovers, Jim O'Connor, Marc Gunn, Rathkeltair, Reilly, Celtic Women, Sean Griffin, Kathleen MacInnes, Ritchie Remo, The Fire, The Gothard Sisters, Jesse Ferguson</p> <p>It's Celtic Christmas Music #90</p> <p><img src= "//assets.libsyn.com/show/81044/90-CelticCulturethruChristmasCheer.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="360" /></p> <p>0:13 - <a href="https://irishchristmas.com/">Irish Christmas in America</a> "Planxty James Connolly" from A Long Way From Home</p> <p>3:21 - WELCOME TO CELTIC CHRISTMAS MUSIC</p> <p>I am Marc Gunn.

If you hear music you love, please support the artists.

Bands. Songwriters. Musicians who pour years of their lives into learning their craft, writing songs, rehearsing, touring, recording, and sharing something meaningful with the world.</p> <p>Most of the Celtic musicians you hear on this podcast aren't getting rich. Not even close. Streaming pays pennies. Radio exposure doesn't pay the rent. For many artists, the only reason they can keep making and releasing music is because listeners like you choose to support them directly.</p> <p>That support matters more than you might realize. Buy an album. Grab a pin or a shirt. Back a Kickstarter. Become a patron. Show up to a show. Even shar ea song with a friend. Those small acts of generosity add up. They are often the difference between an artist making another album… or quietly fading away.</p> <p>So if there's a band you love on this podcast, support them. If there's a song that moved you, support the people who made it. Supporting small and indie music isn't charity, it's how this music survives, grows, and keeps finding its way into our lives.</p> <p>Thank you for being part of that. Now… let's get back to the music.</p> <p>28:56 - <a href="https://marcgunn.com/">Marc Gunn</a> "Let's Have a Celtic Christmas" from Celtic Christmas Greetings</p> <p>31:04 - <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/Rathkeltair/">Rathkeltair</a> "In The Bleak Mid Winter" from Something Good for Christmas</p> <p>34:07 - <a href="https://www.reillyrocks.com/">Reilly</a> "Bells Over Boston" from Kick Ass Celtic Christmas</p> <p>38:22 - <a href="https://www.celticwoman.com/">Celtic Women</a>, <a href="https://seangriffin.rocks/">Sean Griffin</a> "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" from Nollaig – A Christmas Journey</p> <p>40:46 - THANK YOU FOR SPREADING CHRISTMAS CHEER!</p> <p>Thank you for listening.</p> <p>Thank you for sharing this show.</p> <p>And thank you for helping spread a little Celtic Christmas cheer into the world.</p> <p>Yes, podcast ads help keep the lights on. But you…the listener…are what keep this podcast alive. Your support on Patreon funds the heart of this show. The audio engineering. The artwork. The promotion. And most importantly, the ability to keep sharing incredible Celtic Christmas music with you, throughout the holiday season.</p> <p>When you become a patron, you're not just supporting a podcast. You're supporting a community that believes this music matters. You get ad - free episodes, a private podcast feed, and the simple, powerful knowledge that you're helping this show continue to celebrate Celtic culture through Christmas music.</p> <p>And it starts at just three dollars a month.</p> <p>HERE IS YOUR THREE - STEP PLAN TO SUPPORT THE PODCAST</p> <ol> <li>Go to our Patreon page.</li> <li>Decide how much you want to pledge every month, $3, $8, $25 or become and underwriter for the podcast for $100 per month for as long as you want to support the show</li> <li>Keep listening to Celtic Christmas Music to celebrate Celtic culture through Christmas music.</li> </ol> <p>You can become a generous Christmas Patron at <a href= "http://patreon.com/celticchristmas">patreon.com/celticchristmas</a> .</p> <p>42:26 - <a href= "https://music.youtube.com/channel/UCTExn8qtJKioTJbaPi6PcrQ">Kathleen MacInnes</a> "Santa Take Me Home" from Single</p> <p>45:22 - <a href="https://ritchieremo.com/">Ritchie Remo</a> "Christmas Time Again" from Home For Christmas</p> <p>48:46 - <a href="https://www.thefirescottishband.com/">The Fire</a> "The Christmas Carol Suite" from The Fire's Very Scottish Christmas</p> <p>52:45 - <a href="https://gothardsisters.com/">The Gothard Sisters</a> "O Come O Come Emmanuel" from A Celtic Christmas</p> <p>56:32 - CLOSING</p> <p>57:52 - <a href="https://www.jessefergusonmusic.com/">Jesse Ferguson</a> "Silent Night" from A Bard of Cornwall Christmas</p> <p>1:01:11 - CREDITS</p> <p>Celtic Christmas Music was produced by Marc Gunn and our Christmas Patrons on Patreon.

Word of mouth is the absolute best way to support any creative endeavor.</p> <p>Finally, remember. Clean energy isn't just good for the planet, it's good for your wallet. Solar and wind are now the cheapest power sources in history. But too many politicians would rather protect billionaires than help working families save on their bills. Real change starts when we stop allowing the ultra - rich to write our energy policy and run our government. Let's choose affordable, renewable power. Clean energy means lower costs, more freedom, and a planet that can actually breathe.</p> <p>Promote Celtic culture through Christmas music at <a href= "https://celticchristmaspodcast.com/">CelticChristmasPodcast.com</a>.</p> <p>Nollaig Shona Daoibh!</p> <p>#celticchristmas #celticchristmasmusic</p> <p> </p>
