St. Patrick’s Day is just around the corner. What is your plan for the day? If you love Ireland, as you should, there are several things you can do to celebrate the day. Dancing to some Classic Irish tunes should be one of them.
We understand that you may have thousands of songs on your playlist, but St. Patrick’s Day is not the day to embrace variety, unless your variety is restricted to Ireland. There are so many killer Irish jams that need a dedicated playlist all their own. Even if you aren’t a regular listener, it is worth giving them a listen.
If you already have your “Irish Pride” playlist created, consider adding these songs and bands to your list if they aren’t there already. If you don’t have a playlist for St. Patrick’s Day yet, then make sure to check out the below cool Irish dance music to get you in the mood for the holiday:
