National Programs
The Thistle & Shamrock
Sunday afternoons at 1pm on WPSU
Spirited reels and jigs, haunting ballads, harmonious strains, and exuberant rhythms of new music born of deep roots - such are the pleasures of The Thistle & Shamrock. Now in its 20th year of national distribution, the one-hour weekly Celtic music series embraces the spirit and character of America's thriving cultural influences.
Thistle is hosted by Fiona Ritchie from Scotland, who beckons listeners to her radio soundstage in the rich warm accent of her homeland.
