Eirecana: The Irish-Americana Podcast

It is the seventeenth episode and the end is nigh...well sort of. In this episode I feature some great music from the likes of Dax Riggs, Whitetrash and more. I lament the end of another americana podcast and share a bit of why this August episode is appearing in September.

The latest episode of the Eirecana podcast features some great music. Both Irish and international artists feature on the playlist this month along with a little chat as well. Find me: Twitter: @eirecana Facebook: facebook.com/eirecana Blog: Eirecana.com

The title of this month's podcast comes from the fact that I reached my monthly bandwith limit with my podcast host last month within 10 days. There were too many downloads. While that is a good complaint, I tried to keep the promotion quite for the rest of the month. So the June episode is up a bit later due to that fact. This month's music though is just as good as last month's.

Looking back at the previous number of months where there has been no podcast, I'll explain why here. Find me: Twitter: @eirecana Facebook: facebook.com/eirecana Blog: Eirecana.com

I return with a look back at everything that was 2016. In this end of year podcast, I reflect on the best releases (according to me) in the genres of americana, alt-country, folk and more. I also share some music from those that have passed on in 2016

It's September. The sun has set on not a great summer here. So I'm reflecting on all the music that I missed during the summer. That, music festivals, song contests and lots more.

The latest episode from Eirecana. I discuss injuries, holiday playlists and more.

Amongst other things I discuss the weather in this episode. I explain why it has been eight weeks since the last episode was released and I play a bit of music too. Check out eirecana.com for more great americana and alt-country artists. The summer episode of Eirecana podcast features some lovely tunes from the likes of Matt Woods, WhiteTrash, The Good Rain and more.

It's my last show of 2015. As it's the end of the year, it's natural to reflect on the year that was. So this episode is the start of my reflection on the year that was. Check out some of my favourites of 2015 below with more to come, I'm sure in January.

It is a cold winter outside and I share the story of enjoying winter weather and more. Find the playlist and more at Eirecana.com

In the latest episode of Eirecana podcast, I discuss 2016. It has been a crazy year but one good thing to come out of it was some great music. In this month's episode, I play the usual mix of americana, alt-country, folk, post-punk and lots more.

Back once again with another episode of your favourite (I hope) Irish americana, alt-country, folk and blues podcast. This month's episode celebrates all the things wrong in the world and the only music that fits that feeling; the blues.
