Title: Irish trad music - online radio?
Post by: blunderbox on June 02, 2016, 06:22:46 PM: Anybody know of a good irish trad music 'station' online? Maybe one that plays tunes, with links out to purchase what you like etc? AccuRadio and TuneIn both seem pretty fluffy.

There are obviously a few chat/magazine etc programmes but a very high proportion of music. Ceol Binn o Na Beanna at 7pm GMT, for example, first rate ceol traidisuinta from all periods.

Thanks to Lars for the info about the Radio Kerry podcast!
