    “I am one of the last of a small tribe of troubadours who still believe that life is a beautiful and exciting journey with a purpose and grace well worth singing about.” E Y Harburg Purpose + Grace started as a list of songs and a list of possible guests. It is a wide mixture of material, from a traditional song I first heard 50 years ago, other songs that have been with me for decades, waiting to be arranged, to new original songs. You stand in a long line when you perform songs like this, you honour the ancestors, but hopefully the songs become, if only briefly your own, or a part of you. To call on my friends and peers to make this recording has been a great pleasure. Turning the two lists into a coherent whole was joyous. On previous recordings I’ve invited guest musicians to play their instruments, here, I asked singers for their unique contributions to these songs. Accompanying song has always been my favourite occupation, so it made perfect sense to have vocal and instrumental collaborations. In 1976 I had just released my first album and had been picked up by a heavy, old school music business manager whose avowed intent was to make me a star. I was not averse to the concept, and went straight from small folk clubs to opening shows for Steeleye Span at the biggest halls in the country. Early the next year June Tabor asked me if I would accompany her on tour. I was ecstatic and duly reported to my manager, who told me I was a star and didn’t play for other people.

  • June Tabor Ask June Tabor About the Cinematic Image and She'll Talk With
    June Tabor Ask June Tabor about the cinematic image and she'll talk with wonder of the relentless rain in Seven Samurai, Max Schreck's terrifying shadow on the castle wall in Nosferatu, or the first shimmering sight of Sherif Ali on the desert horizon in Lawrence of Arabia. She finds such powerful images in songs too - they are her inspiration, and she paints them vividly with her voice so that they take root in the subconcious. 2012 was a good year for June Tabor. She was named BBC Folk Awards Singer of the Year for the second time this century, and her recent partnership with Oysterband won three more of the year's most coveted prizes. It's the Ragged Kingdom album with the Oysters that has occupied June for the past two years, which means she's been touring in 'rock' mode, away from the more intimate intensity of her own solo concerts for some time. These March 2013 dates mark her return to the kind of performances that she feels most at home with: in 'listening' venues, where her singing can take hold of the imagination, and the warmth of her presentation lead listeners along the storyteller's path. June is joined by three of the musicians who combined on her most recent solo album, Ashore (2011): pianist Huw Warren, accordionist Andy Cutting and viola player Mark Emerson: all experienced Tabor-accompanists who know how to give June the space to sing and provide the depth which she exploits so beautifully. "One of Britain's most emotive voices...in a category of one" Mojo "Tabor has been a folk legend for four decades.

  • MADDY PRIOR– EFDSS Gold Badge Testimonial Maddy Prior Is Without Doubt One of the Best Known Voices from the English Folk Revi
    MADDY PRIOR– EFDSS Gold Badge Testimonial Maddy Prior is without doubt one of the best known voices from the English folk revival, with a career spanning over forty years which continues today, and several key recordings which will always be identified with her, including by generations born long after the original release of those songs. Her work, however, has extended way beyond her global hits Gaudete and All Around my Hat. Born in Blackpool to Z-Cars co-creator Alan Prior, Maddy grew up in St Albans where she came to prominence in the late 1960’s in a duo with singer/ guitarist Tim Hart, who built a reputation on the folk club circuit, releasing two albums. In the early 1970’s they joined forces with Ashley Hutchings (of Fairport Convention) and Gay & Terry Woods, with the idea of fusing folk song with rock instrumentation and technique. The new group took its name from a traditional Lincolnshire ballad 'Horkstow Grange' - the tale of a character called Steeleye Span. As is well known, Steeleye Span took folk music out of the clubs and into the charts with a string of consistently strong hit albums, gold discs and world tours. Tim Hart and Maddy Prior remained the core of the group whose changing line-ups read like a Who's Who of British folk until Tim left for health reasons in 1980. Maddy continued to work with the band in its changing line-ups until 1997, when after two massive tours around the release of the album Time, she left the band after 28 years, only to return to work with them again from 2002 onwards, and is still touring with them today.

    The Folk Club of Reston-Herndon Preserving the traditions of Folk Music, Folk Lore, and Gentle Folk Ways www.RestonHerndonFolkClub.com Volume 25, Issue 7 July 2009 July 14 Showcase – Greg Vickers Greg is a program director for a construction materials trade association. He lives in Reston, and has been a Folk Club regular since 2003. He hasn’t done a showcase since 2005, and says he’s really looking forward to the July 14th gig. Greg and his wife, Gillian, just flew off to Colombia for two weeks where they went to see their daughter get married. Busy with wedding, travel, and day job plans, Greg says he hasn’t decided what he’ll play at his showcase. Nor does he know who he’s going to invite to share the stage. He says he likes surprises, though, and he frequently decides what he’s going to play at regular Folk Club open mikes only after he’s arrived at the Tortilla Factory. Greg started playing guitar and writing songs as a teenager in McLean in the 70’s. He remembers his first band, The Back of the Bus, jamming for hours in his parents’ basement. “We mercilessly punished contemporary rock songs and a few originals,” Greg says. “My recollection of that band was that we really sucked. But we loved to play and sing so much that we still managed to create a fun, contagious sort of energy. Every time I take the stage, I try to recapture that same old spirit, without, y’know, all that suction.” Eventually, Greg took up harmonica and banjo, too.

All Around My Hat, bekend van Steeleye Span en zelfs van Status Quo, herkende je in deze Tri-Coloured Ribbon van Anne Byrne. Drie kleuren die hier ongetwijfeld staan voor het oranje-wit-groen van de Ierse vlag want vooral in Ierland werd deze nochtans Engelse folk-tune massaal gerecupereerd. Onze oudst bewaarde opname gaat trouwens over een martelaar van de Ierse Paasopstand in 1916: The Death Of (Cathal) Brugh op de tune van All Around My Hat door Johnny McDonagh in 1951. 1:39 2.
