Hello, Rose!
Yes, as Steve Gardham notes, there will be an enormous amount of material available.
To throw out a few names of recorded artists I enjoy, I would suggest you look up Peter Bellamy, John Roberts, and Matthew Byrne for more traditional ballads, and for some hauntingly beautiful contemporary ones, the late Stan Rogers (who wrote many stunning examples in his tragically short life).
I'm sure I'll think of a load more in the next twenty minutes, but that should give you a good start
Best,
~Kristoffer
