Folk Music Discovery

Folk music is the people's tradition — passed down, reworked, revived. From the British and Appalachian song carriers through the 1960s revival (Dylan, Joan Baez, Pentangle, Fairport Convention), the 1990s anti-folk scene, and today's wave of artists like Big Thief, Bonnie "Prince" Billy and Adrianne Lenker — folk remains music made close to the bone. PUNKSTAR.ai surfaces the singers and players carrying it now.
