Whelans Live - Queen Of The Banshee

Welcome to the first of our Lockdown Podcasts! As we all practice social isolation, we’re still connected through the stories we tell, and the stories we listen to.

The two stories were recorded live from Whelans at last month’s show 'For the Love of Gods". Aron and Sorcha recorded this podcast live on Instagram to test the dynamic duo’s capability to live stream! It’s all very likely that we’ll get ready for our first ever Live-Streamed show on the 18th of March at 8 pm!

Story one - Mis and Dubh Ris was told to Sorcha by Nuala Hayse and we dont know any other source… yet.

Story two - Clionadh’s Wave aka The Queen of the Banshee - Sources for this are various, but include bits from; https://lairbhan.blogspot.com/2017/07/cliodhna-goddess-and-fairy-queen.html

The music in this live show was performed by Audrey Trainor and Allan Homan, and the live story was retold by Aron Hegarty…. And Aron Hegarty… again. The Next episode we’ll have Ru O’Shea telling you Midir and Etain though! ;)
