  • Nostalgia in the Media Representations of Female Folk Singers
    Rellstab, D. & N. Siponkoski (toim.) 2015. Rajojen dynamiikkaa, Gränsernas dynamik, Borders under Negotiation, Grenzen und ihre Dynamik. VAKKI-symposiumi XXXV 12.–13.2.2015. VAKKI Publications 4. Vaasa, (25–34). Nostalgia in the Media Representations of Female Folk Singers Noora Karjalainen English Studies University of Vaasa Tämä artikkeli tarkastelee naisfolklaulajien nostalgisia mediarepresentaatioita. Artikkelissa kiinnitetään erityistä huomiota siihen, kuinka laulajien esityskieli vaikuttaa heidän representaatioidensa muodostumi- seen. Artikkelin teoreettisena pohjana on käytetty Astrid Erllin kulttuurisen muistin tutkimusta ja mää- ritelmiä ja Svetlana Boymin nostalgia-analyysiä. Analysoimalla laulajien kuvauksia eri tekstilähteissä artikkelissa pyritään selvittämään mitä yhteyksiä folklaulajien representaatioilla on nostalgiaan ja kult- tuurisen muistin eri tasoihin. Keywords: cultural memory, folk music, folk singers, media representations, nostalgia 1 Introduction Nostalgia has a central part in the construction of a folk singer representation, as well as with the imagery connected to folk singers. The artist types for different genres of music are constructed through and preserved on the collective level of cultural memory; in folk music these types are particularly persistent, even though the artists may not ac- tively perform the stereotypical folk singer image. Thus, because of collective memory, if an artist is referred to as a folk singer it might bring to mind a long haired young woman, often alone on the stage playing the guitar and singing sad songs about lost love and heartbreak. This representation, constructed mostly during the 1960s folk revival by and for Joan Baez, Judy Collins and others, is still the prevalent public representation reserved for female folk singers. This article discusses nostalgic representations of female folk singers in different media sources such as digital publications of magazine articles, interviews, and concert and album reviews.

His songs are full of deep insights into relationships and events that should be way beyond his years. An excellent guitarist and singer, he has a charm of his own that appeals to audiences of every age. If you've seen Luke before you'll know how special he is – and he's developing fast as a writer and performer. £10 (£11 non-members) MAY 10 – THE FRANK BURKITT BAND ■ Performances full of energy and joy Inspired by the music of James Taylor, Van Morrison and Tim O'Brien, Frank's musical road began in the Scottish Highlands, took him to Edinburgh, then the UK's folk clubs and on to a new home in New Zealand, where he's lived for five years.

  • Women in British Folk Music 1880‐2011
    Student number: 7261488 MUSC 30400 In Search of a Voice: Women in British Folk Music 1880‐2011 Dissertation submitted in part fulfilment of the degree of Bachelor of Music. © Kerry Firth 2012 Abstract Of all the existing research that documents the twists and turns, ups and downs, and ducks and dives of British folk music’s history, there appears to be no cohesive exploration of the key involvements of women’s voices. Publications are instead devoted to the stories of successful male figures such as Cecil Sharp, A.L. (Bert) Lloyd, or Ewan MacColl who, although admittedly having a great influence on the genre’s development, were by no means the only protagonists in its history. This dissertation attempts to close a void in research by providing a sounding‐board for the achievements of women within the genre. Although largely unnoticed, these achievements have been pivotal moments in the genre’s history, and have contributed heavily to its development. The consultation of the small amount of literature that exists on Lucy Broadwood and Kate Lee of the first folk revival will kick‐start this study, since along with providing a needed introduction to their successes, its lack of content will also highlight a number of problems that will reverberate throughout the duration of this work and that threatened to bring the journey of finding the woman’s voice to a halt. The nature of the portrayal of women in traditional song will also be analysed, which adds further obstacles to the course. A reliable body of interviews with British female folk artists whose careers range from the 1970s to today will inform the second part of this dissertation, which deals exclusively with the second revival, showing how women wrestled with the misogyny left behind by the first.
