"Gan Poirt, Gan Ríleanna" February 10, 2026

Have you ever been in a pub listening to Irish Traditional music and thought, "didn't they just play that piece?"

Well, you're not alone. Jigs and reels seem to dominate most sessions and they can run together after a while. That's why this week's theme is "no jigs, no reels". Only all the other beautiful types of tunes and songs. Hornpipes, Slip JIgs, Polkas, Barndances, Mazurkas, Marches, Slides and of course songs make up the playlist.
