Traditional Folk

Traditional Folk music emerged in the 19th century across rural Europe, typically sung by the masses rather than the musically elite, because who needs a record deal when you've got a campfire and a pint? It features simple melodies and straightforward lyrics, often telling tales of love, loss, and the odd sheep-shearing competition, all backed by charmingly rustic instruments. This genre serves as the soundtrack to village fairs and local shindigs, making it the perfect excuse for a knees-up and a good old singalong, whether you're in tune or not.
