Folk Critique
Underground, αργή βραδιά folk
Please join us for a double launch, celebrating the publication of Folk Critique, a new pamphlet from Ross Cole and the Fair Organ collective; and the Cambridge Companion to Folk Music (edited by Ross Cole), a groundbreaking new collection of essays on traditional culture and its continuing power in today’s world. The evening will include a discussion of folk revivalism, nationalism, resistance and what it means to take an attitude of ‘folk critique’; performances from Angeline Morrison, the Black British Folk Collective, Mataio Austin-Dean and Jacken Elswyth; and readings from Aisha Farr and Grace Connolly Linden. We hope attendees will stay to have a drink and a chat afterwards. Generously supported by The Leverhulme Trust.
