L in C#: I don't understand how the book 'The Imagined Village' relates to the 'band' of the same name. Is the 'band' a post-revival, ironic comment on what the Sharp/EFDSS think folk song might be?

The front page of the band's website at http://imaginedvillage.com carries a summary of the aims of the project and what they themselves see as the thread between the band and the book.

I'm just pleased that the renewed profile given to the Imagined Village name has perhaps in some way (a solid or tenuous connection, I know not) led to the reprinting of the book: my copy of which was duly received from No Masters in double-quick time and is currently getting an appreciative and fascinated re-reading.
