Basic Folk
Добавлен 11 июн 2006
Basic Folk is a podcast with honest conversations between musicians and Cindy Howes, a well-versed public radio host and music curator, and guest host Lizzie No, a talented singer/songwriter. Basic Folk approaches interviews with warmth, humor and insightful questions. This podcast fosters the folk community and showcases a genre that is often misunderstood. Basic Folk features complex conversations about the human experience witnessed from an artistic angle. Our definition of “folk” is extremely broad, so you’ll hear interviews from Amythyst Kiah, Tom Rush, The Lumineers and many more.
Basic Folk is dedicated to showcasing the best in folk and roots musicians including BIPOC musicians who have been excluded, or felt like they did not belong, in the folk world. Both Cindy and Lizzie bring unique perspectives to our honest conversations and are dedicated to changing the landscape and the gatekeepers of the folk music community.

Ana Egge on Dream-Writing, the Truth, and Sinead O'Connor, ep. 269
Folk music singer Ana Egge's 13th album Sharing in the Spirit came out of the musician one song at a time. She didn't even think about moving onto a new song before the writing and production of each song was complete. Working with her friend and collaborator Lorenzo Wolff, the songwriting process and music production plan was to just work on a handful of songs. Their creative collaboration manifested an entire record's worth of indie folk, acoustic music and new folk music. The record includes eight originals and two covers: one by the Biloxi songwriter Ted Hawkins and one by Irish musician Sinead O'Connor.

Thank you for a wonderful interview with Greg Brown, whose music has traveled with me through my life. And you should be proud of your interview questions! They were great and let me see into the real Greg. Loved it all!
Worst channel on youtube. Just stop. Do something else. Cant dislike enough.
Thank you, Meg! For these insights into the creative process, and for recommending Kay Jamison's work. I'm a poet and these ups and down really do go with the territory. It's only when they get out of control that they become debilitating. If you can manage them, work with them, they can lead to some genuine creative breakthroughs which would not otherwise have happened. Love your work, your songs! Combining poetry with the gift of music: not something that everyone can do. Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, Gordon Lightfoot. Where would we all be without them? All of them "touched by fire". But yours is a gentler voice, a gentler fire. More on the low side than the high, but that can be healing.
I have 0 clue what this is, but it’s got a good vibe so I gotta like 👍
Cult of White Guilt

Goofy ahh Bikini bottom ahh beat
White supremacy is lie. This is the definition of judging people by the color of their skin. Blacks resent your virtue signaling and assumption that they need you to achieve what so many Americans that are black achieve. Just so you can pat yourself on the back.
This was great! I play mandolin and fiddle. Andrew and Emily are my biggest influences. Thank you so much for this interview.
molly is not going to make it, no charisma
you're probably jealous....😂😛
What planet are you from
I’m embarrassed to say that I just discovered Molly. She’s a virtuoso flat picker and a great singer and song writer.
I love listening to Lizzie No while motorcycling. Just cruising some back road with nowhere to be.
Tyrone Cotton is a legend!
Phil Moore is a great singer, songwriter, so says his totally unbiased Uncle Mike
These are so awesome. Thanks so much for making and uploading them.
Sarah you are extremely talented and one of my favorite musicians. Loved hearing you speak about keeping the wolves at bay. I am very thankful to have been alive at the same time as you so that I can experience all the music you have made, and will make
Great interview! Sarah is a treasure. 😊
Boring 😴
i love phil moore and beth tacular, and mark paulson. sad they broke up but phil carrying on the bowerbirds just as grand ❤
What a genuinely warm and interesting interview - thank you for sharing this.

Hey you two made a smooth interview! It was nice to learn about John, I admit Lilly is how I found this.
great interview
Morby is 🔥
Growing up, my dad never said I love you. My brothers and I saw him as the punisher, as we disappointed him. I was 37, sitting with him after his open heart surgery, when I heard him say I love you. In Never you
I never heard it again.
Great
Well Done 👍 Enjoyed the Show, all the Best from Oz 🇦🇺 👍
I love this song so much! So much longing but filled with hope and love and. . . .I just LOVE this song.
That is one powerful instrument
Hahahaha! 6 hours and I'm only the 3rd view. When will you evil communists realize that no one supports your racism against white people and your desire to surgically mutilate children who like the wrong colored shoes.
Love to hear about different banjos. And love to hear that you are using richlite on your instruments. I have built 3 banjos with Patrick Sawyer from Pisgha banjos and that's all he uses. The material is great to work with and if you ever need to repair it, it's invisible. Just sand some scrap pieces to make a powder and add glue. The perfect filler. The material has no grain. However if you like the look of grain, I have seen a piece of material similar to richlite, but has a "grain". I bought it from wood supplier from Chilliwack, BC. I passed it on to Patrick so he could try it out. Not sure what he ended up doing with it. Your 6 string is very similar to Allison de Groots Seeder banjo. I love the history of the inlays you chose. Cheers.
In Blount County, AL, its pronounced Blau-nt. Never heard it pronounced how you do.
So adorable!
@lecoshayo I've been thinking the same thing, only voice I've ever heard that I can really compare to Joanna's,
One might need to "learn" to appreciate her voice, it has taken myself some time as well, but I am absolutely in love with he music.
@ClearMindDontKnow It's most definitely an original :)
thanks Tom, great song great job, thanks for the post
One of my favs from her. Is this a cover or an original?
Come to Austria please Anais!! It doesn't matter where. I'll come to you.
tom's an unbelievably sweet and modest man. a wise, gentle spirit. traveling through this world of pain and tumult.
Her voice reminds me of joanna newsom a little bit
When I first heard one of Anais' albums, I thought the songwriting was great, but her voice let it down. A year later, I think I was wrong, and that her voice, unusual as it is, is fantastic, expressive, and beguiling. Funny old world!
Anais Mitchell is absolutely amazing if you ever have the chance to see her live take it. I was lucky enough to see anais and antje duvekot perform the same night and their voices sound unbelievable together. other anais reccomendations: 1984, your fonder heart, out of pawn
I just saw them at bonnaroo yesterday and even though there was a lot of noise coming from other stages, they totally connected with their audience. Hard to hear them but still sooo good! Can't wait to see them in a quieter venue.
I'm a 72 year old fan of Uncle Earl and Aofie, too.. Nobody does (sings, claps, clogs) crayolas better than these delightful g'earls, sometymes-always-whys...goofy manny
Sounds good 5 star sir !
Tô louco pra achar o CD original dela, q é simplismente perfeita!
they're amazing!
she's my professor's daughter. He;s so proud of her.
