It's Saint Patrick's Day, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Hello hello! Sara Hillis here to let you know that we are celebrating Saint Patrick's Day on this week's episode of Come by the Hills, the Folk an Celtic music show here on Mushroom FM. Unfortunately, though I had intended it to be a live show this week, I had a rather bad night for sleeping last night and I'm not feeling too well as a result, so this show will be pre-recorded.

We're Springing Forward, this Week on Come by the Hills!

Hello again! Sara Hillis here to tell you about this week's episode of Come by the Hills, Mushroom FM's Folk and Celtic music show! Since much of North America is springing forward this weekend into Daylight Saving Time, I thought we'd play some songs about time and some songs about spring this week.

So, even though it isn't officially spring yet, I've decided to celebrate it anyway.
