I am trying to find some Irish musicians to help celebrate St. Patrick's Day on my radio show. So, aside from the well-known Irish bands/artists, do you know of any?
The ones already included are U2, The Corrs, The Cranberries, Van Morrison, and Sinead O'Connor. While I also plan to include some various Irish folk songs, I am more interested in some of the pop or rock artists.

Excellent! Yeah, I personally like Enya in the right setting, but not sure that she will fly on my show. The Chieftains, The Boomtown Rats, and The Pogues...not sure why I keep forgetting them! I even kept reminding myself that Geldof is Irish! Van Morrison is already on my list.
This definitely will help me fill out my list. Thanks so much!
