All music is folk music; I ain't never heard no horse sing a song. Contemporary and traditional sounds in Nottingham, London and Brighton.

I'm sure they'll be in all the folk starter packs in no time at all, but with noting that @folkonfoot.bsky.social have joined the gang on here now!

A gorgeous gig tonight with Hattie Whitehead and March. If you're in Nottingham or the East Midlands and like live folk music, give us a wave!

Heading out for our monthly folk night in Nottingham - this is only our third gig, but we're more or less sold out! A huge relief - it's a tough time for live music, and there's a lot of fear in committing yourself (and very often your own money!) to events in a new city!

Brilliantly powerful writing from James Rebanks (@herdyshepherd.bsky.social) as ever. Given the media reporting you'd be forgiven for thinking farmers just want to keep their £millions from inheritance tax. The truth is far different. unherd.com/2024/11/a-fa...

The one thing Twitter has going for it now, that we desperately need over here, is Bob Dylan's recent decision to start tweeting from his official account that had, for the past 15 years, been solely used for third-person official marketing. BRING BOB TO BLUESKY.

There's a quote in this article from one of Molly No-Mates co-founders: "there's this idea that England didn't have any culture which is just not true. It's just that it's really neglected."

I've started up a starter pack loosely based around the UK folk and traditional music scene and will be adding to it all the time. If you can think of any artists, organisations or mandolin-whittling interest groups I've missed please let me know! go.bsky.app/D5A8kE4

Right. Time to commit here, I reckon. Hello! Folkroom is mostly @srotzschthomas.bsky.social, putting on traditional and contemporary folk gigs in London, Nottingham and Brighton. Occasionally Folkroom is also a label putting out music by the artists I love most.

Would have joined yesterday, but I was busy with the solstice*. *Swearing at sky for choosing to rain only at the precise moments I stepped outside the house.
