THIS WEEK IN CELTIC MUSIC 0:09 - Amelia Hogan "No Irish Need Apply" from Transplants: From the Old to the New 5:02 - WELCOME 8:14 - Dropkick Murphys "Who'll Stand With Us?" from For The People (Expanded Edition) 12:03 - Bealtaine "Worker's Song" from Factories & Mills, Shipyards & Mines Written by Ed Pickford in the mid-1970s as a direct response to arguments blaming Britain's economic woes on workers rather than the wealthy. That's a typical tactic that continues today. If we want free and fair elections, we will stop letting billionaires buy our politicians. The was first recorded by Scottish legend Dick Gaughan in 1981, it's been taken up by everyone from the Dropkick Murphys to The Longest Johns. 16:22 - Ed Miller "Blood upon the Grass" from Generations of Change In 1977, Scotland traveled to Chile to play a friendly match at the very stadium where, just four years earlier, Pinochet's regime had tortured and killed political prisoners after the 1973 coup. Back in Scotland, a powerful solidarity campaign urged the Scottish Football Association to pull their team from what would become known as the 'Match of Shame.' Folk singer Adam McNaughtan captured that outrage in his song 'Blood Upon the Grass,' and Edinburgh-born singer Ed Miller later recorded it on his album Generations of Change — keeping this powerful story alive for new generations. 19:16 - Black 47 "San Patricio Brigade" from Rise Up and The Secret World of Celtic Rock 24:18 - FEEDBACK The Great Hunger in Ireland took place from 1845 to 1852. Irish immigrants migrated to the U.S. They were treated as second-class citizens. There are still newspapers that refer to them as lazy and criminals, thus the "No Irish Need Apply" song at the start of the show. These were hungry people. They were just looking for opportunities in a new land. Much like the immigrants of today. But they too were treated inhumanely. They were demonized. So when the Mexican-American War broke out from 1846-1848, many Irish looked at how poorly they were treated in America. They found greater kinship to their Catholic cousins in Mexico. That's why the Saint Patrick's Battalion was formed. Interestingly, it wasn't just Irish Catholics. There were Catholics from throughout Europe in the battalion including: German, Canadian, English, French, Italian, Polish, Scottish, Spanish, Swiss and Mexican. These were people who were attacked and belittled for their culture and their faith. It should serve as a warning and a reminder for all of us today. 30:04 - David Rovics "St. Patrick Battalion" from Historic Times 32:58 - Wild Colonial Bhoys "Dying Rebel" from Century A song that reflects on the human cost of rebellion rather than the glorification of the conflict and the martyrdom of its leaders. Here's what history keeps teaching us. People don't start out wanting to fight. They start out wanting to be heard. On January 30, 1972, in Derry, Northern Ireland, somewhere between ten and fifteen thousand people joined a peaceful civil rights march. They weren't armed. They were protesting the British government's policy of locking people up without trial. Sort of like what's happening in America now. British paratroopers opened fire. Thirteen people were killed. Fourteen others were wounded. The incident caused widespread anger and led to a surge in IRA recruitment. The argument was simple and devastating: peaceful protest could no longer achieve change. I hope to God America never comes to that. But peaceful protesters were murdered in Minneapolis. I lost a fan because I took my kids to a peaceful No Kings Protest last summer. When

Climate change isn't happening because regular people failed. It's happening because a handful of billionaires got rich by wrecking the planet and buying politicians to protect their profits. Voting matters—but it's not enough. If elections alone fixed this, fossil fuel profits wouldn't still be breaking records. Real change happens every day. In how we travel. What we buy. Who we support. What we refuse to fund. Clean energy is already the cheapest power in history. Pollution is what costs us. We can't wait for bought politicians to save us. Every choice is a vote. Every dollar is pressure. And together, we outnumber them. Promote Celtic culture through music at http://celticmusicpodcast.com/.

We are over halfway through the year. There are over 60 new tracks added to our Irish & Celtic Music: Best of 2022 playlists on Spotify, Amazon Music, and YouTube.

Because you get extra podcasts that are exclusively available to patrons! I'm gonna compile Celtic Top 20 podcasts. Each episode will feature about 13 - 19 songs and tunes. I'm gonna create another poll. Your job is to listen and vote for your top 3 songs and tunes. Please include at least one vocal song and one instrumental tune. The third one can be whatever you love. Hopefully, this will help us narrow our end of year list down to the absolute Best of 2022. And as an added bonus, this one at least will be a music - only episode for everyone. Well, at least after I finish talking. VOTE IN THE CELTIC TOP 20 FOR 2022 This is our way of finding the best songs and artists each year.

With behind-the-scenes guidance from Stateside Irish speaker Brian Ó hAirt, and set against the backdrop of the forthcoming U.S. Presidential election, this episode of IMS scratches the surface of Irish and Scottish Gaelic. And explores how these ancient languages inform traditional music, and how they resonate today. You'll hear beautiful conversations and music from Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh, Séamus Ó Flatharta, Ciarán Bolger, Michael Coult, Julie Fowlis, and Mary Jane Lamond. We talk regional songs, apple crumble, and President Obama's gracious Gaelic address to the Irish people back in 2011. Learn how inspired musicians think in ancient words in 2020. Explore connections between language and music, how songs in Irish and Scottish Gaelic transmit emotion and carry history, and how languages lift people up (and ward off the evil eye). _____ Thank you to everybody for listening.

An album pin is a lapel pin with artwork inspired by a specific album or song from an album. It could be the actual album artwork or it could be inspired by a specific track on the album. The best album pins stand out on their own. They appeal to more than just your fans. It is simple, bold, and visually engaging. However, what truly makes it an "album pin" is that the purchaser also gets a digital album with their pin. I have an entire blog on my website with details including templates for you to make your own album pin jacket.
