Customer Reviews
Great podcast
Fantastic mixture of music and natural conversation that really goes to the heart of what makes Irish trad music (and music from Clare in particular) so special. Such a great listen!
Tunes from Doolin
Top notch stuff. Long considered conversations about art and music are far too hard to find on conventional media these days. Three cheers for the Tunes from Doolin podcast!
