Thus begins a series of episodes highlighting some of the best Celtic music online. Today's show is about Celtic Folk Bands which I describe as acoustic Celtic music groups based in the folk tradition. These are the groups that stand out most for me. I'd love to hear your thoughts and band suggestions. Coming soon: Best Celtic Rock, Best Celtic Traditional, Best Celtic Soloists, and then Celtic Music Artists You Should Keep an Ear Open for in 2011.
