Hello All,

I was having an indepth discussion with my brother the other day, this was very strange, as we usually talk about girls,beer and football like all good men and true.However, this time, we were talking about bands in the folk scene and what is the formula to success. We noticed a very obvious observation that the majority of folk artists who have 'made it' are singers, either unaccompanied or in bands. As my band is a non singing band, is it better to learn a few songs and just bite the bullet and learn some songs? Do singers have a better chance of working as Folk clubs tend to like it more? or shall me and my brother go back to talking about Arsenal?

I leave it to you lot to decide....
