Thanks to Mainly Norfolk. I'm not sure that folk music today has the audience to launch a major protest song. But one could come from a music scene more popular with younger people, Radio 1, perhaps, or the summer music festivals. There are certainly enough problems both locally and globally that demand attention. |
