  • Investigating the Health of the UK Folk Club Dr Stephen Henderson Senior
    Investigating the health of the UK folk club Dr Stephen Henderson Senior Lecturer Leeds Metropolitan University UK Centre for Events Management Room 216 Bronte Hall Headingley Campus Leeds LS6 3QS United Kingdom Telephone: 0113 812 5514 Email: [email protected] Abstract This research addresses the conflicting views of the health of folk music by way of interviewing artists, agents, and folk club organisers/promoters. Exploring the more homogenous formats of performance observed as singarounds (including sessions), ‘open mic’ and concert clubs, it is concluded that the concert club is struggling to survive whilst the other formats are still offering opportunities to folk artists. However, the latter are finding both the formal venues such as arts centres and the emergence of young promoters provides compensatory opportunities for performance. 1. Aim of Research For many years, folk clubs have provided places of congregation for those of like musical mind to discuss, perform, enjoy and share their music. This paper explores the state of health found within the UK folk club scene where the phrase ‘folk revival’ seems to be mentioned as often as concerns are raised about the future of the folk club. In considering the state of the folk club, this work concentrates on the business models represented by different folk club formats and their relative health as opposed to the complex ethnomusicology behind the folk music format. 2. Methodology In order to address the health of the folk club, the author has interviewed twelve individuals including the artists who play these clubs, agents who book out the artists across the many venues and organisers/promoters who book the artists into these venues.

  • Performing Englishness in New English Folk Music and Dance: Research Project Closing Report
    Winter, Trish and Keegan-Phipps, Simon (2010) Performing Englishness in New English Folk Music and Dance: Research Project Closing Report. Project Report. University of Sunderland, Sunderland.

CENTRE FOR RESEARCH IN MEDIA AND CULTURAL STUDIES Performing Englishness in New English Folk Music and Dance Research Project Closing Report Dr. Trish Winter: Principal Investigator Dr Simon Keegan-Phipps: Project Researcher 19th January 2010 Funded by: [Grant number AH/E009867/1] Abstract Over the last ten years there has been a resurgence of interest in the English folk arts: new artists are exploring their English heritage of tunes, songs and dances, and established artists are finding new audiences; and folk festivals in England are experiencing great popularity. Whilst grass roots involvement in folk flourishes, a developing folk industry is also playing a central role. The research project has looked at the significance of this newly invigorated interest in English traditions as well as focussing on the kinds of English identities being forged and their politics. The project has had three main objectives. Firstly, it has examined the characteristics of this wave of English folk. Secondly it has looked in detail at the particular kinds of ‘Englishness’ that are being circulated when people ‘do’ English folk, whether as participants, performers, audiences or promoters. Thirdly it has examined why this wave of interest is happening now, and how it might relate to wider shifts in national identity.
