Here's a couple of good Spotify playlists: [Irish folk music](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/66MSw4KvlAfx3qe1Ojxt52?si=JALgITbGSy6vHMoF0BX4fw&utm_source=copy-link) [Scottish folk music](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7tIWAjHhwFHI0zF4zFIzPu?si=Gguq0gSLQUK4osjQDmXyaQ&utm_source=copy-link) Both are mainly music from the 70's onwards when guitar was starting to become prominent in trad Celtic styles. It's not all guitar music but there are some great players among those bands and artists. I would also suggest the British player Martin Simpson, who quite frankly is one of the best players in the world IMO and plays mainly folk and blues. His album The Bramble Briar is considered a folk classic and contains some beautiful playing. Also check out the likes of Bert Jansch, John Renbourn, Davy Graham etc. They really defined the British fingerpicking sound in the 60's and 70's.
