  • Diversions Vol.4 Web Release
    The Unthanks DIVERSIONS VOL. 4 The Songs And Poems Of Molly Drake RRM016 and RRM016LP RabbleRouser Music 2017 Released on vinyl, CD and download. Distributed by Cadiz Music. The Unthanks release what has been their most difficult album to make so far, and yet they feel is also their possibly their best to date, thanks !to not one but two Drakes, neither of whom are Nick! ! plus Extras RM017 and RRM017EP RabbleRouser Music 2017. Exclusively direct from The Unthanks. An 8 track appendage to the album, released on 10” vinyl and CD, released on the same day but only available directly from the band’s website & shows. A wistful mother makes some simple home recordings in her family sitting room during the 1950s. Little could she have known that decades later, a daughter would become a successful actress, and her son one of the most poetic and influential songwriters ever. Less still, that more than sixty years later, the dust would be blown off her song collection, firstly in 2013 with the release of her own recordings, and now by The Unthanks, who believe her work is extraordinary enough to rank alongside and independently of her brilliant son, Nick Drake. From the album sleeve notes: Hearing a woman, a mother, from that time, expressing the struggle between darkness and light, so beautifully, with such artistry, confidently, and yet kind of from behind closed doors, is as compelling a listen as we’ve ever experienced. The Unthanks have teamed up with Molly Drake’s daughter, the actress Gabrielle Drake who along with being an invaluable and generous guide to Molly’s work, recorded her mother’s poems for The Unthanks to set to music.

  • 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.
