Starting tomorrow, this three-part studio concert series at Cecil Sharp House presents a sample of the freshest, undiscovered and at times radical music being produced within the indefinable folk tradition.
With the burgeoning profile that folk music has achieved in recent years never has there been a showcase opportunity for the periphery music-makers approaching folk from the ’outside’ as well as those from ’within’. Under the banner of ’New Folk, Old Folk, No Folk’ this will be a roulette of a musical experience charting the daring and the dangerous, the wonderful and the weird but above all suggesting how the future of folk will sound.
