At the English Folk Dance and Song Society we have admired Tradfolk from its very start. We love how Tradfolk is introducing so many diverse people to the wonderful folk arts of England, while simultaneously and equally successfully producing fascinating and entertaining content for those who have always placed folk at the centre of their cultural lives. We are delighted to support Tradfolk with its Old Songs podcast, and we hope that you look forward to listening to it as much as we are.
Tradfolk editor Jon Wilks said: “I’m so pleased that the English Folk Dance and Song Society are helping us out with the second series. Not only does it help hugely with the costs of running a good podcast – one that has so far attracted nearly 9,000 listeners across the globe (not bad for something that focuses on songs that last bothered the local hit parade 200 years ago) – it also has a bit of personal resonance. My grandparents fell in love at Cecil Sharp House, the home of the society, in the 1940s. I think they’d be delighted to know that this is happening, were they still with us.”
