The Folk Brothers for July 28, 2021: The new faces of Irish folk

Wed, 07/28/2021 - 11:10am | Peter Schiffman

A quiet revolution of Irish folk music is stirring amongst young acoustic bands (like Lankum and Skipper's Alley) as well as from singer-songwriters (like Declan O'Rourke, Joshua Burnside and John Spillane) and singers of traditional ballads. On today's show, we highlight three such singers: Dublin's John Francis Flynn, County Armagh's Dani Larkin, and Santa Cruz transplant Amelia Baker. The latter (pictured here), trading under the name Cinder Well, has just released a stark and beautiful, pandemic-inspired album titled No Summer.

Also on today's show: new music from Sharon Shannon, JP Harris, Joe Danks, Logan Ledger, Jenny Reynolds, Bella White and Barbara Bergin. And classic tracks from The Incredible Band and Mike Beck.

We all know trees are vital, especially in Davis. Imagine this city without them, especially when it's 112 degrees* outside. Today we talk with Erin Donley Marineau, whose job as executive director of Tree Davis means she's one of the people responsible for keeping the city well-tree'd.
