Smithsonian Folkways, the non-profit record label of the U.S. national museum, has upgraded www.folkways.si.edu and has launched Folkways Magazine, a quarterly, multimedia online magazine bringing you the people and stories behind the recordings of Smithsonian Folkways.

The new website includes:
• Improved navigation and search

The premiere edition of Folkways Magazine includes a feature article on Pete Seeger, still standing tall at age 90, an interview with Grammy-award winning Nati Cano from Los Camperos de Nati Cano, and much more.

We hope you are enjoying the continued improvements of www.folkways.si.edu - stay in touch by joining our monthly newsletter and find us on Facebook, MySpace, and YouTube.
