  • Folk for Art's Sake: English Folk Music in the Mainstream Milieu
    Volume 4 (2009) ISSN 1751-7788 Folk for Art’s Sake: English Folk Music in the Mainstream Milieu Simon Keegan-Phipps University of Sheffield The English folk arts are currently undergoing a considerable resurgence; 1 practices of folk music, dance and drama that explicitly identify themselves as English are the subjects of increasing public interest throughout England. The past five years have seen a manifold increase in the number of professional musical acts that foreground their Englishness; for the first time since the last 'revival period' of the 1950s and 60s, it is easier for folk music agents to secure bookings for these English acts in England than Scottish and Irish (Celtic) bands. Folk festivals in England are experiencing greatly increased popularity, and the profile of the genre has also grown substantially beyond the boundaries of the conventional 'folk scene' contexts: Seth Lakeman received a Mercury Music Awards nomination in 2006 for his album Kitty Jay; Jim Moray supported Will Young’s 2003 UK tour, and his album Sweet England appeared in the Independent’s ‘Cult Classics’ series in 2007; in 2003, the morris side Dogrose Morris appeared on the popular television music show Later with Jools Holland, accompanied by the high-profile fiddler, Eliza Carthy;1 and all-star festival-headliners Bellowhead appeared on the same show in 2006.2 However, the expansion in the profile and presence of English folk music has 2 not been confined to the realms of vernacular, popular culture: On 20 July 2008, BBC Radio 3 hosted the BBC Proms

  • Exhibition Details
    2 3 A WARM WELCOME TO OUR ANNUAL PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBITION I would like to extend a very warm welcome to our photographic exhibition. It seems to come round quicker each year or is that I am getting older! A big thanks goes to the Exhibition Committee, and Jean in particular, for organising this event which involves a lot of work. Thanks also to the members who have helped in various ways, in- cluding putting the displays up, and who will be helping with teas and other duties over the dura- tion of the exhibition. Thank you also to the Judge Nat Coalson ARPS for giving his time to judge an increased number of both print and PDI entries, the whole process taking the best part of a day. We are back at Christchurch again this year because it is an excellent venue for our exhibition with plenty of space and lots of light. Don’t forget the teas and coffees that are available through- out Friday night and all day Saturday. There are also delicious cakes on sale, some homemade. So please try them. Our friendly volunteers will be waiting to serve you. We are displaying images from other clubs as well as our own. As well as the print display there are also projected digital images (PDI) to be enjoyed while you have a drink. I hope that you will agree with the judge on the high quality of all the images displayed. Finally, if you like what you see. perhaps you may consider attending one of our meetings when we meet again in September.

Have a wonderful summer! President’s Message By Ellen Dowling Dear IAS Members: Hope you’re all keeping cool this long, hot summer! I hear that Europe also has been experiencing an awful heat wave, and most folks there (like my brother in Germany) have no air conditioning. And yet one time I was in Northern Ireland (in Five Mile Town, to be specific) in July and went to a Family Fun Day event with vendors and a pipe band and it was FREEZING. As I sat there in the pouring rain listening to the pipes and drums, I could actually see the breath coming out of my mouth. Oh, to be there now. Although we are on hiatus for the summer, there are still some events to let you know about: The Duke City Ceili Band, for instance, will be performing at a house concert on August 4th.

  • October 2014 a Project Halloween Concert Party at the Minstrel
    October 2014 www.folkproject.org A Project Halloween Concert Party at the Minstrel featuring A Tribute to Jimmy Durante by Grover Kemble, plus The Cavalcade of Costumed Crooners On Friday, October 31st the Project goes all out with our first ever Halloween Concert Party, starring Grover Kemble in a Tribute to Jimmy Durante. We’ll close the night with a Cavalcade of Costumed Crooners: Dave Kleiner, Christine DeLeon, Diane Perry, Jim Gartner, Dave Sherman, Ken Galipeau, Liz Pagan, Mark Schaffer, and a whole host of member performers backed by Project bands. Opening the evening will be a brief appearance by Edith Pilaf, unrenowned worldwide as the Faux Famous French Chanteuse. Prizes will be awarded to the best costume by an audience member. Kemble’s portrayal of Durante, the beloved icon of American stage and screen, is the centerpiece of the show. He captures Durante’s unique delivery of comedy, character, and song in this delightful show, from the raucous novelty hits of Jimmy’s early vaudeville career through the senti- mental nostalgic ballads of his later popular revival. Grover Kemble is New Jersey’s own great jazz and swing showman, renowned and beloved for his work with ZaZuZaz, Sha Na Na, and as a fantastic vocalist and guitarist. We finish up with our first Halloween Concert Party, our Cavalcade of Costumed Crooners. Fabulous Folk Project vocalists, in costume, will enter- tain you, accompanied by our most excellent member musicians and bands. Expect cowboys, princesses, vampires, and more to capture your heart. Or bite your neck. Opening the evening will be Edith Pilaf, a virtually legendary performer.
