We need to put aside our prejudices. Any song/tune whether folk-orientated or not will live or die on its own merits. Yes it needs to be given the chance to be heard. I personally don't like a lot of the vocal acrobatics some of the new generation are using but I'm very glad it is all happening and the scene is vibrant enough to include a wide range of styles and experimentation. >>>>> I do not believe that (a) letting people hear 'new' music, will entice young people (or older people) to listen to traditional music<<<< I disagree.
