🍀 Celtic & Irish Happy New Year Traditions — told in 16 Songs 🍀

These 16 tracks follow the Irish New Year from the final moments of the old year to the first light of the new one. Each song reflects a traditional Irish New Year custom, turning rituals, beliefs, and shared moments into music.

The collection explores the opening of doors at midnight to let the old year leave and welcome the new, the striking of bread or cake against doors and walls to drive away hunger and misfortune, and the rich feast known as “Oíche na Coda Móire” — the Night of the Big Portion — symbolizing abundance and good fortune 🍞🍽️.

Several tracks focus on the “First Foot”, the first visitor after midnight, traditionally a dark-haired man believed to bring luck 👣. Others honor quieter customs: a place set for the dead, doors left unlocked in remembrance 🕯️, mistletoe under the pillow for hopeful dreams 🌿, and the New Year’s cleaning that clears the past away 🧹.

The journey ends in song, shared voices, and pub gatherings, as the New Year is sung in together — a tradition still alive in places like Dublin 🎶🍻.
Together, these 16 songs tell one night’s story: farewell, renewal, and new light rising ✨.
