This week’s Folk Show opens with a track from our new Artist of the Month, Peter Knight’s Gigspanner Big Band, whose new album Natural Invention, was recently reviewed here. Also from our Featured Albums of the Month, we have Salt House with a track from their new album Huam (reviewed here). Don’t forget that tomorrow (Sunday 5th April), we are partnering up with Hudson Records for their new Listening Club. Head to our Facebook Page for 10:30 am to join Salt House who will be listening to and chatting about their new album. Another Featured Album that makes the playlist is Time in the Trees (reviewed here), the new album from Serious Child as well as Amy LaVere‘s latest Painting Blue (reviewed here).
We also have new music from Eliza Carthy, taken from her new album Through That Sound (My Secret Was Made Known), John Doyle with a track from his new release The Path of Stones, Eliza Gilkyson‘s 2020 (don’t miss her recent Folk Radio session here) plus Watkins Family Hour – the acclaimed musical collective featuring Grammy Award¬ winning siblings Sara and Sean Watkins— whose highly anticipated new album Brother Sister is out today. And finally, a new track from Galway’s Ultan Conlon’s new album There’s a Waltz.
Alongside that great list above are many more offerings as you can see in the extended show playlist below including John Prine (who, as mentioned here, is currently critically ill with coronavirus symptoms), Laura Gibson, Luke Temple, Dave Rawlings Machine, Bob Dylan and lots more.
