The Blarney Pilgrims Podcast is a weekly journey to the heart of Irish music. We interview players of Irish music about how they first came to the music and the place it occupies in their lives now.

  • A great resource!

    Working on Irish Music as an outsider for just under a year - going to sessions makes it apparent what everyone says - that this is a social music first and foremost. The conversations here make that extremely apparent, showing how much in the way of personal and international history can travel through the 16 bars of a tune. Beautiful work.
