Subject: RE: New Folk Programme in Manchester 2
It's good to hear the old stuff but I like to hear the new as well.
Joe Topping, Roam , Ola,   Queensbury Rules. These people are young and bursting with a new energy. Most of them were not even born when songs like Ellin Vannin were written, they need the exposure more than the trusted old songs we all love. I've really enjoyed the programs so far, it would be the icing on the cake to hear the exciting new, young performers cropping up on the folk scene.
