About the Show
Foolkiller Folk
The Foolkiller Folk collective explores the storytelling, cultural, and protest power of folk music from as far back as the Child Ballads through as current as released today.
"When one becomes enlightened one kills the fool within" -Jack Conroy
Today we bring music from releases that are new to us. You’ll hear music from England, Ireland, Appalachia, Minnesota, New Brunswick, Sweden, and the Sami area of Finland, plus songs from Rhiannon Giddens and the new release from Kansas City’s own (banjo) Kelly Hunt.
Can’t tune in at 11:00? Thanks to the generous support of KKFI’s listeners, music shows are now archived at KKFI.org for a full two weeks! Looking for a playlist? Go to Spinatron.com and search for 90.1, then by show and date. Playlists should appear the next day at the latest.
