IOWA MUSIC SHOWCASE PODCAST - Episode 6: Iowa (and Nebraska) Celtic Music

Although Iowans may have more German than Irish ancestry, in music, the Irish and the rest of the Celts are way ahead!

So for your St Patrick's Day enjoyment, I am proud to present Celtic music as only Iowans (and a few Nebraskans) can do it!

And if you want to join the fun, you can take FREE bagpipe lessons from both The Omaha Scottish Pipes and Drums! - http://www.omahapipesanddrums.com/ And if you want to just watch and listen,

The Iowa Scottish Pipes and Drums keep a schedule of appearances! - http://www.iowascottish.com/appearances.html
