Hi there,

Thanks for the responses. I agree, the thread title is a bit vague.

What I meant was singers that are perhaps known in a certain region, but not to the folk community as a whole.

For example, I assume everyone knows about Martin Carthy & Family, Nic Jones, Bert Jansch, John Renbourn, Seth Lakeman & the rest that are often spoken about here and on the BBC messageboard (and folk awards!).

What I'm keen to find out about are singers/players that have yet to reach that level of success/recognition. It could be people that are playing 'the circuit' already, or people mainly who play in one area...

Looking at my list above, I've noticed it's all Brits, but good recommendations from elsewhere would be more than welcomed.

Hope that helps...
