I seem to remember hearing Sting being interviewed about his 'Folk' roots. He explained that he had attended a particular folk club in Newcastle (one thats been going since the 60's) but found it impossible to play contepmorary music in such a traditional setting.
Unlike Jez Lowe, he had to take his music elsewhere to achieve acclaim.
