Most of the songs on “Here & There” originate from County Clare, Ireland, including a tune called “St. Louis Waltz” that was first performed at a session in Doolin, Ireland, in the 1980s.

Tomáseen Foley’s “A Celtic Christmas,” now in its 26th year, is making its first-ever St. Louis stop Dec. 13 — and two locals have big roles. They joined “St. Louis on the Air” to talk about it.
