Thread Name: So what is *Traditional* Folk Music?
Subject: RE: So what is 'TRADITIONAL' Folk Music ?
If you were saying that there a few places where you can reasonably sing non chorus stuff, then I would be inclined to agree..........
Are you are saying that the lack of a city centre folk club means that singers get less of a chance to perform a set, perhaps in support of another act and miss out on development in that way ?
Hi Julie, Yes, precisely that. And that the chances for young singers to perform with established artists can be important IMHO.
I know there are established sing arounds and sessions in the town centre, and some of the instrumental music is great, I´ve rarely been to the singing sessions. But I´d like a folk club in the town centre too!!
