Green beer and coddle may be the beginnings of a great St. Patrick’s Day party, but they’re certainly not all you need to celebrate the secular side of this shindig. You also need a soundtrack for festivities, and there’s no more fitting option than some foot-stomping Irish music. Traditional Irish music dates back 2000 years, and began as an oral tradition to relate the rich, vibrant history of the Irish people. So, as you quaff a pint of frosty Steam Whistle this March 17th, also partake in a verse or two of a rollicking Irish tune and pay homage to this fine, feisty culture.

U2 is not your only option, friends! Irish music for St. Paddy’s day abounds, and we’re here to give you the ultimate St. Patrick’s Day playlist, packed with the best Irish music. From more traditional Irish drinking songs to modern Irish music and tunes inspired by the Emerald Isle, this St. Paddy’s playlist is good craic.

Without further adieu, we raise a glass to you, great beer and the best Irish songs for your St. Patrick’s Day party.

    Saint Patrick was a gentleman,
    Who through strategy and stealth,
    Drove all the snakes from Ireland,
    Here’s a toasting to his health.

    But not too many toastings,
    Lest you lose yourself and then,
    Forget the good Saint Patrick,
    And see all those snakes again.

    Sláinte to all, from Steam Whistle!
