Podcasts of interest to concertina players

[Jim Albea]

What podcasts would you suggest that might be "of interest" to concertina players?

[Calurphy]

Clare FM (Ennis, Co. Clare, Ireland) broadcasts 2 hours of traditional Irish music every weeknight with different hosts for each show. Some shows focus more on 'em then others, but usually at least one concertina tune.

 

Here is the link to their archives:

The Manx radio folk program goes out every Tuesday and is available for download. Nearly always something of interest to concertina players, either played on concertina or easily adapted.

 

The program usually has a themed section, about a person or historical event, or else is concerned with recent releases.

 

Occasionaly there have been special presentations on the history of the concertina.

Simon Thoumire has a twice-monthly podcast of Scottish music that sometimes includes some concertina music (such as his own); it's called the Ayepodcast (get it? Ayepod? Heh heh heh) and is available here.
