  • Representations of Rural England in Contemporary Folk Song
    Representations of Rural England in Contemporary Folk Song Heather Skinner Institute of Place Management, UK [email protected] Purpose: This paper explores aural representations of the countryside and English rurality through the contemporary cultural product of folk song. Methodology: A textual analysis was undertaken of the sleeve notes and lyrics of Steve Knightley, songwriter and founder member of the folk/roots band Show of Hands. Findings: The concept of the rural idyll is thoroughly debunked in the majority of these lyrics. Many songs make specific reference to place, and these, in the main, focus on the historical and contemporary hardships of living in rural England, in many cases also making explicit reference to the historical or contemporary social issues deemed by the lyricist to be at the root of the problems faced by people living in English rural communities. Research limitations: This article analyses data obtained in lyrics of only one songwriter within only one music genre, but the artist is one of the most respected within the contemporary folk genre, and Show of Hands have won a number of prestigious nationally recognised folk awards. Originality/value: The extant literature contains little concerning aural representations of place identities through song. The contribution this paper makes is therefore in presenting a conceptual framework that shows how folk song, as a contemporary cultural product contributes to the construction and communication of rural place identities. Keywords: Country life; Show

  • The First Benefit Concert for the Alan Surtees Trust Took Place in the Fabulous Adam Ballroom at the Lion Hotel in Shrewsbury on 10Th January 2020
    The first benefit concert for the Alan Surtees Trust took place in the fabulous Adam Ballroom at the Lion Hotel in Shrewsbury on 10th January 2020. The room was full, tickets had sold out soon after the concert was announced shortly after the festival last August. Getting artists of the calibre of John Jones, Steve Knightley, Phil Beer, Hannah James and Grace Petrie onto the same bill for an evening concert is testimony not only to the purpose of the trust but also to the standing of Alan himself. All the artists gave their time for free. The concert was introduced and compared by Dave Cowing, the chairman of the trust and a friend of Alan for over 30 years. First to perform was Hannah James. She had known Alan since first performing at the festival aged 14 when a member of Kerfuffle. Alan had encouraged Hannah to develop her ideas around music and dance. She instigated the idea of the trust soon after Alan passed away and emailed her friends to help make it happen. For this gig, Hannah had flown over specially from a winter sojourn in Slovenia. Perched on a chair, Hannah played a piano accordion almost as large as herself. She began with a song from that first set with Kerfuffle and continued with some tunes, two yodelling songs she learnt from Austrian friends and finished with a very moving song she wrote last year about the shootings in a school in Florida: "... friends fly high and dreams run deep ...". The second part of the first half saw Phil Beer join Steve Knightley to re-form the original Show of Hands duo for one evening only.

  • 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.
