GUEST,Peter Laban The current state of folk music in UK (2105* d) RE: The current state of folk music in UK 27 Nov 19


'In Spain and Ireland, the governments have used their folk music to promote their countries. The government have done it for them.'

I don't know about Spain but I'd suggest the Irish government hopped on the bandwagon long after things got going. There's a lot of commodification of music going on there, as well as genuine support for the culture.
