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.

Every year, Mark & Val put together a show honoring members of the folk community who have passed away the year before. Sadly, so many members of the folk community passed away in 2021 that it’s taking three full shows to honor them all. This Sunday’s show is Volume II, honoring those who passed away from July through October.
You’ll be hearing music and songs from Bryon Berline, Nancy Griffith, Tom T Hall, William Hundley Emerson of The Country Gentlemen, Don Everly of the Everly Brothers, Sir Victor UWaifo, Lee “Scratch” Perry, Nobesuthy Mbadu, Don Maddox, and Robin Morton, founder of Boys of the Lough.
