A request followed by a hashtag bomb. Can anyone recommend live folk music radio shows (world, Celtic, old-timey, Canadian, etc.)? I know about some prerecorded ones and about Folk Alley. The live ones I know about are Come by The Hills on Mushroom FM and Back Porch Music on WUNC. Any others?

Oh, drat; Mastodon doesn’t like names with @ in them. It wants to open them as Mastodon users. Ok, I found them, though; thank you!

@Pipistrelle it's not exactly a radio show, but my friends @onionhoney do a livestream every Sunday at 11am eastern time, with a mix of old-timey string band music, folk classics, and their own songs. On YouTube and FB. A really lovely weekend ritual in our house!

@Pipistrelle @onionhoney You can find them at youtube.com/@onionhoneymusic -- I think tomorrow will be episode 145, which is almost 3 full years of weekly streams. They call it "banjo church" in a tongue-in-cheek, irreverent way.

@Pipistrelle And I should note that there's a link in the description to a google slides deck with all their lyrics and chords for those who want to sing or play along.

@Pipistrelle @onionhoney Oh yay! I'm at my parents' and up to my elbows making marmalade -- the first session I've missed in ages, so I'm glad you were there to experience it.

@Pipistrelle You're welcome! I feel joy just knowing you get to discover this wonderful program for the very first time. Brian O'Donovan is a treasure and really knows his Celtic music.

@Pipistrelle Let me know what you find! I'm a hard-core fan of music from the Maritimes. And Loreena McKennit, but I have all her CDs.

@Pipistrelle Wisconsin Public radio has had a show on for years and years and years, called Simply Folk. I have no idea if it’s syndicated, but you could go check the website, it’s I believe Sunday nights.

@Pipistrelle @splott not all folk but Mountain Stage is primarily Americana. It's live from West Virginia Public Radio but can listen from their website. mountainstage.org/mountain-sta
