BIG SKY BEATS BIG SKY BEATS: IRISH PUB

BY JULIA BARTON

Saint Patrick was born in the fifth century and is credited with bringing Christianity to Ireland. Although the Irish have celebrated the religious holiday for a millenia, the modern St. Patrick’s Day holiday—observed annually on March 17, the day of his death—didn’t begin until 1631. Due to the holiday’s religious significance, Irish pubs were seldom open on March 17, but in 1995, the Irish government began a new campaign to drive tourism by capitalizing on interest in the holiday, and drinking has since become a staple for many St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. Enjoy this playlist that intends to create the ambience of an Irish pub in any establishment, so long as you provide the Guinness and are sure to wear green.
