Alonzo M. Zilch (inactive) Why Bluegrass musicians don't like folk (126* d) RE: Why Bluegrass musicians don't like folk 14 Dec 04


Cheryl Wheeler is surely a folk singer by anyone's definition, no?

Only if your definition of folk singer is someone who sings only songs they have written themselves and plays acoustic guitar.

Cheryl Wheeler is a singer-songwriter, and a very good one. She is also a great and funny entertainer. I've paid to see her many times and will again whenever she's in the area.

But she's not a folk singer.
