It's now looking likely that we'll be able to deliver a live video stream of the launch as well as the audio broadcast. Full details will be on the Celtic Music Radio website before the event.

I recently became interested in the Celts after having had a couple of excellent Celtic design tattoos. I also came across a website which is totally Celtic related. I thought I would post it while going through the Celtic groups.
