Ken Tracey, Ceol agus Craic

Today,  I’ll be chatting with Ken Tracey. Ken arrived in Toronto in 1989 on the first ever direct flight from Shannon.

I got to know Ken through his work presenting ‘Ceol agus Craic’, a Saturday morning Irish radio show here in Canada, which he presents with his good friend, Mark O’Brien. ‘Ceol agus Craic’ is a great vehicle for the Irish to have their voice heard and spread the word on particular events that are happening in the community.  It airs every Saturday morning from 10AM – 12.30PM on www.mixlr.com/ceolaguscraic. All the shows are made available on the website and they have some great playlists on Spotify. 

This is a great chat with Ken who opens up about why he came to Canada, when he realised he would stay here long term and how he got so busy in Toronto that he even forgot his own birthday.
