Oireachtas season is almost here! Heading to the Western Connecticut State Feis this weekend? Or the Halloween Feis in Illinois? What about New Mexico’s Enchantment Feis or Feile Samhain in Washington? Or maybe the Hagen School of Irish Dance Feis in New York?

No matter your competitive destination this weekend, we want to share four tunes you should add to your own playlist before lacing up and taking the stage. And, since regionals are fast approaching, these songs are all about "winning" this week. Best of luck to all competitors and be sure to come back and share your results with us!
