Fifty years ago, debating the question “What is Folk Music” could lead to a “knock-down-drag-out” fight. Today not so much. That said, I waited for years before writing an article on the subject. Please let me know what you think.

About Paul
Paul Race has been writing and playing all kinds of music since the 1960s, especially favoring traditional songs and sounds. He still writes songs, gives concerts, and does clinics to promote traditional instruments. He also creates web resources like CreekDontRise.com, HarpersGuild.com. and ClassicTrainSongs.com, to help other musicians get a good start on their own journeys.
Camps, festivals, house concerts, Paul has played them all, and will be glad to play more if you want traditionally-inspired acoustic music at your event.
