The Irish & Celtic Music Podcast was created to bring you the best independent Celtic music to your ears for free. However, it cannot exist without your generous support. But rather than spend all my time begging for money, I made it simple and easy for you to not online support the podcast, but also to get some great stuff in return.

The first and best way to support the podcast is to support the artists who donate their music to be heard on my show. Many of them sell their CDs on CD Baby, Amazon, or iTunes. Buy a CD.

The next best way is to Become a Member of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast. I started Song Henge to offer you a way to financially support the show with an annual or lifetime membership donation to the show. But I did something else. I also gave you some free music donated by many of the artists you hear on this show. Yes, Song Henge is a social forum where you can communicate with other fans and get free access to my archive of Celtic music downloads.

A third way to both support the podcast is to purchase one my Celtic compilations CDs. Each album features a mix of some of the best independent Celtic artists that you’ve heard on this show. Each is hand-selected. And while a portion of the money does benefit the podcast, I send thousands of dollars a year to non-profit Celtic organizations around the United States because of your purchases of these Celtic compilations.

I too am a musician. I play acoustic Celtic and folk music with a truly Celtic American sound. I have over ten albums to my credit ranging from traditional Celtic songs to some folk bluesy originals. One of my groups, The Dubliners’ Tabby Cats, offer a wild mix of Irish drinking songs for cat lovers. And for those who like more  comedic music, my old band, Brobdingnagian Bards, have a bunch more albums of fun Celtic and comedy music. And so the fourth way to support the podcast is to buy one of my albums. There almost thirty albums to choose from.

The fifth way you can support the podcast (yup, I’m still going) is to buy a T-Shirt or some Swag. I started offering T-shirts so you could not only have a means to support the podcast financially but also so you could show your Celtic colors. So the next time someone sees you wearing your Irish & Celtic Music Podcast T-Shirt, perhaps they will ask about it and soon we’ll have another fan of the show.

Finally, I’m not above donations. In fact, I LOVE donations! Your donations whether monthly, annually, or just by becoming a member of the podcast mean a lot to me. It means you have enough faith in what I am doing that you will happily support my podcast with nothing expected in return. That’s incredible! So thank you. I hope I may continue to live up to your expectations for years to come!

Please consider making a donation.

Thank you for all your support of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast.

Slainte!
