Thistle and Shamrock
Saturdays at 5 PM on WPSU 2
One of NPR's most popular music programs is created in the foothills of the Scottish Highlands. When you turn your radio on, you're there too.
On The Thistle & Shamrock, award-winning radio host Fiona Ritchie explores evolving music from Celtic roots in Europe and North America. You'll hear well-established and newly emerging recording artists along with in-studio guests, all surveying familiar territory and leading you to more distant landscapes and genres.
