Hi, Alex -

You'll find a dropdown QuickLinks menu on most Mudcat pages. One interesting feature there is the DT Keyword Search, which is a handy tool for searching the Digital Tradition Folk Song Database by keyword. Not all of the DT songs are indexed by keyword, but a good number are.

If there are any particular historic events that interest you, just start a new thread and ask - somebody here will be happy to help you find things.

You may also want to explore the Traditional Ballad Index and the Roud Folksong Index.
