Irish folk music has long been part of Savannah’s cultural fabric, and few musicians have helped carry that tradition forward like Michael Corbett. In Episode 20 of the Savannah Jams Podcast, we sit down with the longtime Irish folk singer to talk about his 30+ year musical journey—from growing up near Boston and learning from legends connected to the Clancy Brothers to performing across Savannah for more than two decades. Corbett shares stories from his years with the beloved duo Seldom Sober, his new project the Galway Rogues, memorable performances at historic venues like Kevin Barry’s, and what’s ahead for Savannah’s biggest St. Patrick’s Day celebrations at Wexford Pub. It’s a deep dive into the history, community, and future of Irish folk music in Savannah.
