1. Celtic Music News

"I found your site, Celtic MP3's.com, while looking for a source of Celtic music online. I am a writer (aka Amy Busby) and most of my stories involve Scotland or Ireland in one way or another. I have found it easier to write if I am listening to celtic music and you site has been a great help!"
-Amy Shultz, Arizona

Whew! Texas Renaissance Festival is finally almost over! This means I can breathe again, and maybe even do a few more issues of this newsletter, huh?

I got an email today from someon who signed up for the Bard Crier, my band newsletter asking about free MP3s from Loreena McKennit and Enya. Well, I put together a few Celtic Music FAQ for you to read and learn more about what my site is all about.

You will also note that I am now publishing the zine online. You can read it from the link above. I'm hoping to earn ever more traffic by doing so. But it's your referrals that help the most. So please add a link. Thanks!

The Electrics - "The Grass Is Greener"

A mad mix of traditional Scottish/Irish folk...with BIG ROCK guitars
combined with mandolin, fiddle, accordion, whistles and pipes!! It
usually starts fast, and gets even FASTER!!

"The Grass Is Greener" is an original piece that opens with a raging
Pogue-ish style traditional reel. It's also a good immigration song
that actually sounds more Rockabilly than anything, but there's
definitely the punk flair of The Pogues and Dropkick Murphy's.
The song is a helluva lot of fun!

Loreena McKennit - "The Visit"

"The Visit" was Loreena McKennit's 1992 breakthrough album
that combines a variety of Celtic styles. It features such magical
pieces as "Bonny Portmore" and "Lady of Shalott". But it opens
up with a wonderful song for Halloween, "All Souls Night".

Wolfstone - "Where the Summers Go"

Sometimes there's a huge advantage to knowing another language.
I've found no other free downloads from Wolfstone, except by this
Celtic World Italy.

One of the most important Scottish bands, Wolfstone combines the
radical sounds of Celtic folk music with modern rock. The group
was formed in 1989 by fiddler Duncan Chisolm. The band began
touring extensively and soon released several albums that went Gold.

"Where the Summers Go" is a modern progressive piece that
combines great songwriting with some very popular sounding
music, and still traditional instrumentalion mixed in.
