Martin talks with musician, historian and director of the Chicago School of Irish Music, Sean Cleland and champion Irish dancer, musician and founder of the O'Leary School of Irish Dance in New York, Niall O'Leary about the status of Irish music and Irish-American music today. Some notable deaths, Paddy Maloney, Mick Maloney (no relation) and on the Chicago scene Dennis Cahill and publican Tom Looney have left a void in the Irish music world. Will that void be filled and who will fill it? In addition, some fantastic Irish music is on hand to enjoy and prepare for that most glorious of days--Saint Patrick's Day.
