Celtic Aire
This two hour show airs twice a week, first on Saturdays at 4:00 p.m. and then again on Tuesday nights at 8:00 p.m. (minus nine hours GMT). I play Irish, Scottish, Breton, Galician and English folk music with a special emphasis on North American artists. I also showcase new releases from Celtic artists from around the world. I'm not afraid of synths and drum machines, but I keep it REAL. You don't have to be a big name recording star to be on my show. I play what is fresh, clean and genuine. I also do interviews with locals and the international jet set when they come to town, like Tommy Peoples. Send me your stuff.
The Voice of Vashon is community based, volunteer web radio.

Celtic Grove
This comes out of tennessee. plays "celtic" stuff though it has a bias towards folk rock.

Celtic Highway
An 11 hour loop of tunes interspersed with the occasional song. Recordings range from Leo Rowsome to Flook, with a general tendency towards a more modern style of ITM, plus some Scottish and Gallician stuff. If you're not expecting pure drop, this a great station.

On the down side, to the best of my knowledge, it's always the same 11 hours of music and never changes, so if you listen to the staion all day, things might get repetetive.

Mike McGoldrick Online BBC Cambridge Folk Fest Gig
Thought I might as well post this here too. Not sure how long the link will be up for, but it should be good for the next few weeks. The gig was part of the cambridge folk fest and is due to be on bbc 4 (digital tv) in a few weeks time. As it was recorded for tv the sound and picture quality is top notch. Its the full big band and they're well on form!

Mo Cheol Th?
Presented each Sunday morning on RTE and archived for a week or until the next show. Presenter: Ciaran MacMathuna. One of the collectors of Irish tunes in the field some years ago, he presents a mix of tunes, songs, poetry and recitation. A good bit of nostalgia. Once in a while he presents field recordings he did in the '50's and '60's or talks about his experiences at that time. This week's show (12-29) has a description of a Midsummer Eve dance in Sweden when MacMathuna was visiting "many years ago" (one of his favorite expressions) along with a Swedish fiddle tune played by an Irish fiddler. This show has been on the air for more than 30 years. I first heard it, muffled, through the kitchen door of a farmhouse near Navan where we were staying a couple of years ago.

Official site for this weekly hour long radio programme hosted by Fiona Ritchie with Celtic music from Ireland, Scotland and North America.

I have always picked this program up on local National Public Radio stations while traveling, and I link to it online by finding one that streams on the net. This show is what got me hooked on Irish music...and where I discovered Matt Molloy.
