Welcome to the Celtic Christmas Podcast, helping you celebrate Christmas with Celtic musicians.

My name is Marc Gunn. I'm the host of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast and I'm also a Celtic musician. It looks like you will get THREE episodes of the Celtic Christmas Podcast this year. That's because I decided to do something bold and scary for this episode of the Celtic Christmas Podcast. I'm gonna share my Christmas album, in its entirety, for free.

I released my album Celtic Christmas Greetings in 2014. It's a mix of traditional Christmas songs, some Celtic Christmas covers and some original Celtic Christmas songs. It's a fun and beautiful album, if I do say so myself. I want you to hear it.

Before we get started, I want to let you know that if you enjoy the music, you can buy this CD in my online store. If you buy it on Bandcamp, you'll also get a digital copy of the album along with the physical CD. Use the coupon code CELTICCHRISTMAS2018 and you'll save 15% on your physical CD purchase.

If you want more Celtic Christmas music, there are 49 episodes for this. Give 'em a listen!

I hope you enjoy this podcast. Again, if you did, please buy the album. You can get it on CD Baby, Amazon Music, Google Play, iTunes, and everywhere music is sold online. But you can save 15% on the physical CD if you head on over to my Bandcamp store at magerecords.com

Finally, if you want even more Christmas music, I have a couple playlists on Spotify. One is Celtic Christmas music featuring many of the bands you heard here. Another is Fun Christmas Songs for Kids & Families. You'll find links to both in the shownotes.

Spread the Christmas Cheer with Celtic Christmas music from The Selkie Girls, Kilted Kings, Sarah Marie Mullen, North Texas Irish School of Music, The Gothard Sisters, A Shamrock in Kudzu, David Pedrick, Susan Toman, Matt & Shannon Heaton, Eira, Jil Chambless, Ed Miller and Scooter Muse, Carolina Ceili , Heather Dale, Cherish the Ladies, Marc Gunn, Jennifer Licko.

Welcome to the Celtic Christmas Podcast, helping you celebrate Christmas with Celtic musicians. I'm happy to share this bonus episode of the Celtic Christmas Podcast. I was only planning one episode this year, in December. But this show is brought to you through the generosity of the Patrons of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast. We hit milestone on Patreon. And now you will get TWO episodes of this podcast.

I also decided to turn this normally 30 minute show into an hour-long special focusing on the music. That means I'm gonna talk less, and share more music. So let's get started...

First, I want to let you know that you can buy our Celtic Christmas compilation album on iTunes for just $4.99 or buy it on CD Baby. This a great way for you to support this podcast if you're not already a Patron of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast.

And if that's not good enough, you will find Celtic Heartstrings in our store. These are necklaces and Christmas ornaments made from the broken strings of my heart... I mean autoharp. You'll find several designs in my store at MageRecords.com. Follow the link in the shownotes.

Finally, if you want even more Celtic Christmas music, I have a playlist. You can listen to Celtic Christmas music on Spotify. And I would love to hear your song recommendations.

Except for Fun Christmas Songs for Kids and Families which features bother popular Christmas songs mixed with a bunch of Celtic Christmas songs.
