Thread Name: folk on radio 4 now
Subject: RE: folk on radio 4 now
Just accessed through the listen again thingy.....her basic ideas are ok..the telling of the story and the Irish style, particularly sean nos which has as many grace notes as can be fitted in as I remember from listening to people like the late Sean McDonnagh and John Dillon. Shes still a young singer with a pleasant voice and pretty and accessible, dare I say non threatening.....(sorry if that sounds really rude its not meant to be)... but we are all aware that radio four listeners and the general public couldn't cope with real gutsy singing so if she leads them towards Rosin or Rosie then thats a plus.
