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
Mark started with a few pebbles of ideas, then kept adding whenever garnishes he put his hands on.
So we’ve got a radio set, a Dirk Powell set, a Gillian Welch debut album set, an unusual enthusiasm set (spinach, roller skates, trombone), an AJ Srubas and Rina Rossi set courtesy of Bob and Diana’s house concert to which Mark has added a recommendation from Linda Wilson (remember Linda Wilson from WomanSong?), an Edith Piaf set (because you need to hear her now and again), a skit from Beyond the Fringe, a Tracy Chapman debut album set, three from Kelly Hunt’s latest album, and a Gonora Sounds set from Zimbabwe. Tune in!
