Irish Radio WFUV-FM 90.7

A blog post about the Bronx and the Irish would be remiss if it did not include the quintessential importance of the the most popular Irish radio program in New York, Ceol na nGael ("Music of the Irish").  

In 1974,  two Fordham students, Gerry Murphy and Mary Maguire, started the program. Over the years it has continued to be hosted by students, and they have kept the tradition going.  

On any Sunday in New York, you can hear the songs of the Irish and keep up with the news from Ireland by tuning in to 90.7 or WFUV.org.  The program is streamed online at WFUV.

The current hosts are Shannon Spillane and Megan Scully.  They do their best to show passion and enthusiasm for the programming.  Importantly, you don't have to be Irish to listen and enjoy the show.

If you are Irish and want to hear the news from home and traditional Irish music, this Music of the Irish radio show is sure to provide what you need.

Let me know what you think of the radio programming and post.
