New Podcast Release – Am Mòd ann an Ameireaga a Tuath – The Mòd in North America

Join us as Liam Cassidy, Scott Morrison, and Rick Gwynallen discuss those events known as a Mòd, a celebration and competition of Scottish Gaelic verbals arts with over 130 years of history in North America.

 

This year has seen an explosion of interest in local or regional gatherings. In 2023, there has been a Mòd in New York City for the first time since the 19th cenury, the first ever Mòd in Kentucky, and a longer standing Mòd at the Grandfather Mountain Highland Games in North Carolina. On August 12th there will be a new Mòd in Maryland, and in November An Comunn Gàidhealach Ameireaganach – The American Scottish Gaelic Society, will hold the 36th US National Mòd / Mòd Naiseanta Aimeireagaidh.
