also wrote the greatest christmas song ever

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

Faggot

>>69463445
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.

Pretty sure Sinead O'Connor is a dyke.

Your contemporary Scottish folk starter pack:

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

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.

>>69462597
Why are they holding potatoes?

>>69464483
World Music is not a genre, Chansons and Madrigals are Art Music.
>>69462597
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.
