  • A Cappella Vocals As Exciting As Any Complex
    APRIL 21 – THE TEACUPS ■ “A cappella vocals as exciting as any complex instrumental fusion” An exhilarating evening of high-energy harmonies is guaranteed as this unaccompanied foursome blast their way through a set made up of traditional and contemporary songs. The Guardian says they are “a reminder that a cappella vocals can be as exciting as any complex instrumental fusion” and they have been wowing festival audiences. Alex Cumming, Kate Locksley, Rosie Calvert and Will Finn will be bringing with them their fun approach to singing, as well as their acclaimed debut album “One For The Pot”. £10 members/£11 non-members www.theteacups.co.uk APRIL 28 – OCOTILLO ■ Delightful fusion of Kirsty McGee and Robert Garson's special talents Ocotillo is the perfect transatlantic fusion of Kirsty McGee's dusty, soulful vocals and Robert Garson's bluesy, gravelly tones performing songs they describe as “from the city and the desert”. Leaning towards an American “smoke-filled room” atmosphere, their voices evoke the textures of 1930s jazz, treading a line between Americana and jazz swing balladry with a nod to Cole Porter and Tom Waits. £10 members/£11 non-members www.kirstymcgee.com MAY 5 – DAN WALSH ■ “The real deal”, “an inspiration”, “consistently brilliant”, “breathtaking” Virtuoso playing, a lovely singing voice and inspired songwriting make Dan one of the hottest acts around. He was nominated for the Best Musician prize at last year's BBC folk awards and is acknowledged as one of the country's – perhaps the world's – finest exponents of the banjo. He has been called “the real deal”, “an inspiration”, “ consistently brilliant” and “breathtaking”.

  • “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment Of
    “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Dana DeVlieger, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2016 Thesis Committee: Graeme M. Boone, Advisor Johanna Devaney Anna Gawboy Copyright by Dana Lauren DeVlieger 2016 Abstract “Whiskey in the Jar” is a traditional Irish song that is performed by musicians from many different musical genres. However, because there are influential recordings of the song performed in different styles, from folk to punk to metal, one begins to wonder what the role of the song’s Irish heritage is and whether or not it retains a sense of Irish identity in different iterations. The current project examines a corpus of 398 recordings of “Whiskey in the Jar” by artists from all over the world. By analyzing acoustic markers of Irishness, for example an Irish accent, as well as markers of other musical traditions, this study aims explores the different ways that the song has been performed and discusses the possible presence of an “Irish feel” on recordings that do not sound overtly Irish. ii Dedication Dedicated to my grandfather, Edward Blake, for instilling in our family a love of Irish music and a pride in our heritage iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor, Graeme Boone, for showing great and enthusiasm for this project and for offering advice and support throughout the process. I would also like to thank Johanna Devaney and Anna Gawboy for their valuable insight and ideas for future directions and ways to improve.

To decline under such circum- stances, he said, would have been “snotty.” Don’t More importantly, he conceives of his MBE as recognition he shares with the whole Call Me folk scene. “I’ve been put at the front of a very, very long queue of people who work hard to make a folk revival and a folk scene,” he said. Sir! “All those people who organized clubs for nothing and paid you out of their own pocket, and fed you and put you on the train the next morning, and put you to bed when you were drunk! What [the government is] doing, is taking notice of the fact that something’s going on for the last more than 40 years. It’s called the folk revival. They’ve ignored it for that long. And someone has suddenly taken notice, and that’s okay. A bit of profile isn’t gonna hurt us — and I say us, the plural, for the folk scene — isn’t gonna hurt us at all.” In the same year as Carthy’s moment of recognition, something happened that did hurt the folk scene. Lal Waterson, Carthy’s sister-in- law, bandmate, near neighbor and close friend, died of cancer.

  • Shirley Collins and the Lodestar Band Live from the Barbican
    Shirley Collins and the Lodestar Band Live from the Barbican Start time: 8pm Approximate running time: 60 minutes, no interval Please note all timings are approximate and subject to change. This performance is subject to government guidelines Shirley Collins looks back over her distinguished career as an icon of English folk with Martin Aston , ahead of this special performance to celebrate Heart’s Ease. ‘Time is a bit of a nonsense at the moment,’ ventures Shirley Collins MBE, referring to the stop-start nature of life under COVID-19, before the UK’s third tranche of lockdown ensured that her streamed Live At The Barbican show in February had to be postponed. But as Collins points out, she has experienced worse. In her teens, the country faced the polio outbreak, ‘and you couldn’t go to school or visit anyone,’ she recalls. And there was the small matter of WWII. Collins’ family were evacuated, bombed out of their house, and Shirley and sister Dolly were machine- gunned by a German plane. ‘Mum said, if we saw one to dive under a hedge, so we did,’ she recalls. ‘But the dreadful thing about the pandemic is that you can’t see or feel it coming.’ One wonders if anyone will be writing songs about the pandemic in the same way that people did about the dramas of everyday life in centuries past – love, death, lust, betrayal, pressganging, witchcraft, worker’s rights, murder, and beyond. Even after WWII, Collins’ own life has seen more than its fair share of drama, as detailed in her two memoirs: America Over the Water, about her trip to the American South in 1959 with the song collector Alan Lomax; and the self-explanatory All in the Downs: Reflections on Life, Landscape, and Song, plus one documentary, The Ballad Of Shirley Collins, which told the story of how a young Sussex girl emerged to become the undisputed grand dame of traditional English folk, only to effectively disappear, abandoning recording and performing for 34 years - from 1980 to 2014.

Powerhire provide festival 60s folk band, Fairport Convention, played its first concert generator power for in a church hall in May 1967. The youngsters ‘convened’ for Fairport Convention’s rehearsals at a house named Fairport, the family home of Festival at rhythm guitarist Simon Nicol. Thus was born the name of a Cropredy, Oxford band. Unit B1 Colliery Business Park, t 01304 833900 Pike Road, Eythorne, Kent e [email protected] CT15 4FE www.powerhire.uk.com A DIVISION OF TGC INTERNATIONAL LTD CS-143-POW-P2774-R0 ©TGC International Ltd 2017 case study After many years of success, musician changes and tragedies, the band decided to call it a day in 1979 playing their final outdoor concert in the Oxfordshire Village of Cropredy. The following year, the band staged a reunion concert in the same village of Cropredy and the famous festival was born. Starting out with just a couple of thousand spectators, Fairport’s Cropredy Convention now attracts up to 20,000 people each year, including regulars BBC Radio Oxford and welcoming this year ITV, making it the largest annual festival of its kind in Britain. Powerhire are lucky to have an engineer who has been providing generator power consultancy for the music extravaganza for 25 years. Through his many years of experience, he is aware of the festival’s generator power requirements and makes sure the necessary equipment is allocated in advance for the event at this busy time of year.

  • Topic Records 80Th Anniversary Start Time: 8Pm Running Time: 2 Hours 40 Minutes with Interval
    Topic Records 80th Anniversary Start time: 8pm Running time: 2 hours 40 minutes with interval Please note all timings are approximate and subject to change Martin Aston discusses the history behind the world’s oldest independent label ahead of this collaborative performance. When Topic Records made its debut in 1939 with Paddy Ryan’s ‘The Man That Waters The Workers’ Beer’, an accordion-backed diatribe against capitalist businessmen who underpay their employees, it’s unlikely that anyone involved was thinking of the future – certainly not to 2019, when the label celebrates its 80th birthday. In any case, the future would have seemed very precarious in 1939, given the outbreak of World War II, during which Topic ceased most activity (shellac was particularly hard to source). But post-1945, the label made good on its original brief: ‘To use popular music to educate and inform and improve the lot of the working man,’ explains David Suff, the current spearhead of the world’s oldest independent label – and the undisputed home of British folk music. Tonight at the Barbican (where Topic held their 60th birthday concerts), musical director Eliza Carthy – part of the Topic recording family since 1997, though her parents Norma Waterson and Martin Carthy have been members since the sixties and seventies respectively - has marshalled a line-up to reflect the passing decades, which hasn’t been without its problems. ‘We have far too much material, given it’s meant to be a two-hour show!’ she says. ‘It’s impossible to represent 80 years – you’re talking about the left-wing leg, the archival leg, the many different facets of society - not just communists but farmers and factory workers - and the folk scene in the Fifties, the Sixties, the Seventies..
