SORM Playlist #15-06: Brass ‘n Woods in Folk Music
(airing the week starting 2-04-15)

Sing Out! Posted on by

Generally when you think of folk music brass and woodwinds don’t easily come to mind. However, there are some very talented players and bands that have used brass and woodwind instruments to great advantage. Sometimes it’s just for instrumental color but at times they drive the tune. We’ll hear selections from Karine Polwart, The Red Clay Ramblers, Bellowhead, Big Bandemonium and many others.
