The definition has expanded.

>dylan and cohen grouped in with nu-male "indie"

top kek, nice b8

folk is an umbrella term and we all know that
traditional folk =/= contemporary folk

>calling Nick Drake nu-male indie
wew

are you high, Dylan is the essential us folk

*folk-rock

Dylan a shite

disrespecting the embodiment of the American culture
fuck off

That'd be native American Indians

americans a shite

Anyway. I would love to see you all list off some worthwhile folk groups ranging from pete seeger type folk to folk rock to folk punk.

The Pogues are all you need.

This was nice. I enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing. I am going to look more into this.

also wrote the greatest christmas song ever

Does anyone have any suggestions of folk songwriters who are lgbt?

Faggot

I can't find a folk band with that name

The only queer folkies I know are Simon and Garfunkel and a folk punk band called Onsind.

ethnic music and folk are not same things

my favourite

Pretty sure Sinead O'Connor is a dyke.

Your contemporary Scottish folk starter pack:

Roddy Woomble, Lau, Drever McCusker Woomble, King Creosote, Frightened Rabbit

Was huge here a few years ago. Or tall. Whatever.

>Leonard Cohen was alive when this image was made

I miss him

He led an honorable life.

Add Hannah Fisher, Sorren Maclean, RM Hubbert,

No you fuck, "folk" music is things like medieval chanson, madrigals, shit like that.

The rest of that is world music.

Why are they holding potatoes?

World Music is not a genre, Chansons and Madrigals are Art Music.
One is Traditional, the other is Contemporary; but both are Folk.

Could you call some of the music tapes music folk?
It's very inspired by old european music, even if it is made recently.
