'The Song Carriers' was a series of fourteen programmes about the traditional songs and singers of Great Britain and Ireland and the folk revival, written and narrated by Ewan MacColl and produced by Charles Parker. It was broadcast on the BBC Midland Home Service during the first half of 1965. The initial ten programmes were broadcast weekly from 28 January 1965, and compared British and Irish folk traditions with others of the world's peoples, featuring traditional folk singers.

A further four programmes were broadcast from 14 May 1965. These mainly featured young singers of the British folk revival who had learnt aspects of their style and repertoire from the older traditional folk singers.
