Irish Internet Radio and TV from Dublin, Ireland.

What's everyone's favorite Irish or Celtic group? I like John Doan, Celtic Woman, and The Wolfe Tones. ("You'll Never Beat the Irish" by Wolfe Tones is absolutely great!) I'm looking for all kinds of new groups, so be sure to throw any names into the discussion when you feel like doing so. Thanks, people!

8 pages and nobody talks about THE FUREY BROTHERS.
They got me hooked on Irish music when i first saw them in Holland in the 70's.
This was in the time that Finbar was still in the band.
For the rest : there are to many to list in here.
They are a very good band,but I want to add The Corrs,they have videos on youtube and they are as talented as they are beautiful.There is one video of The Corrs with The Chieftans which is just fantastic.Check them out if you love Irish music.
Dervish!
I LOVE The Fureys. I've also been listening to some John Beag, and The Wolfe Tones. I've read many of the other posts and have a lot of music to check out. I love reading everyone's suggestions! Add me as a friend if you'd like. I love music and would love your opinion on what's good that I can listen to.
There's a gansey load of good bands out there. You might want to check out The Elders -- they're a celtic rock band out of Kansas City. There are a number of video clips on youtube, or you can check out their website:
eldersmusic.com
-The Chieftains
-Altan
(so far, those two are my favorites. Irish music is not very popular in Latin America, therefore it`s hard to get good ceol à Eire arround here:-( )
try itune music store if it availlable !!
I found youtube has all the irish music on it with videos
yes you tube is great for that... there an application on ipod touch/iphone that play celtic music... it 3 $. I did not check it until now cause i'm a bit busy...but it seem nice... you can also buy the music you hears to make it your owns...
By the way, the new limited edition of Loreena Mc Kennit is available since 19 of october... 2 cd one live. Just great with the story of her Mediterranean Odyssey.
