I wondered how long it would be before someone came in with the suggestion of some actual pagan chants.

Nigel Bourne and Seldiy Bate have recorded some good music and songs - they are both witches and their songs all have a very Pagan theme - try looking for "Esbat Music" though I can't remember if that's the label, an album title or their name as a band/duo.

You'll find them.... ah Google came up with this - what could be more appropriate for this forum!

'... Esbat Music, who have put "the Paganism back into Folk music ... and Folk music back into Paganism". That's what they reckon, anyway, and if the site's anything to go by, I can't wait to hear their music.'

Unfortunately the Esbat Music link doesn't work, and I haven't seen them for ages. Maybe next Abbotts Bromley Horn Dance day, always a common ground for pagans and folkies.

In the UK try looking for musical events at PF meetings, or wander down the high street of Glastonbury and see what you can find buried among the New-age-celtic-synthesiser-didgeridoos-and-dolphins mush... There must be some more good stuff out there somewhere.

Of course, in another sense there are lots of folk songs about witches - e.g. women tricking men by enchantment, like The Broomfield Wager or The Maid on the shore - whether you think that's positive depend on which side you are on, but there's certainly no malicious intent. Well OK, the maid on the shore steals a ship full of gold, but the captain deserved that...

Oh yes - just remembered - try this pagan folk singer: Pete Jennings
