Northerner Political songs (42) Political songs 02 Apr 12


A new monthly venue has started in my area. It's not a folk club but a venue to promote political ideas using words and music. They prefer material with a political slant but will accept material that is non-political. I've asked for a short spot; this is to gain more experience. I'm considering doing The Jute Mill Song and The Dalesman's Litany. I believe these fit in well with the ideas in spite of not being contemporary. I also write poetry but don't have anything political.

If these go down well are there other songs that might fit? I have a copy of the Iron Muse CD.


This is a good audience, they are keen and attentive and appreciative. Above The Parapet, Thursday, 7.30 pm, Westgarth Social Club, Middlesbrough.
