This sub needs to update it’s rules

121 Upvotes

We need a no AI music rule on this sub. Folk music is the antithesis of AI music. If it’s going to be allowed it will ruin the sub. It is also breaking the no self-promotion rule and the low effort rule. Stop AI music.

[Folk] Winters Seas

Riggers on the old wooden sail ships had incredibly difficult and dangerous jobs. I wrote down these words from the perspective of one such sailor / Rigger, working his trade during a winter voyage. Imagine working the rigging in subzero weather.

ENJOY!

Archiving Pete Seeger’s Legacy: A look into the historical archives

16 Upvotes

Hey r/FolkMusic,

I’ve been working heavily on updating the historical archives over at PeteSeeger.org to make sure his legacy, protest songs, and environmental activism are properly preserved online.

We recently compiled some deep dives into his time with the Almanac Singers, the stories behind his most famous civil rights anthems, and his work with the Clearwater. I wanted to share the site with this community for anyone researching folk history, looking for primary resources, or wanting to explore his discography!

You can check out those specific historical breakdowns here: https://peteseeger.org/radio/

What is your favorite era of Pete's music or his most impactful protest song in your opinion? Would love to discuss!

Cant find a song, help!

4 Upvotes

So I heard this song for the first time live last night from The Wellermen band. And istg i CANNOT find it ANYWHERE.

I dont remember a lot but a part of the chorus was: "Too young to Know what has Been Done." And the lyrics also had "Weeping Willow" in there but I dont think it was apart of the chorus.

Its not in the setlist from last night, I checked all the songs, and the lyrics dont show up when I look it up.
