The Hyde Park Folk Club is back on the 28th of May! We have got a fine selection of folk music for you all!
In the basement of the Hyde Park Book Club Jon Wilks will be joining us with support from Stiofán ? Treabhair & Katy Ryder
Jon Wilks is an acclaimed fingerpicking guitarist and singer of traditional folk songs and broadside ballads from the English repertoire. His background as a journalist (a former editor of Time Out magazine and contributor to Dazed & Confused, The Guardian and other publications) means that he has a great eye/ear for a story, and this shows in his live shows ? an amusing mix of folk song performance and storytelling.
He throws in weird and wonderful tidbits about the original singers and collectors that he has unearthed during his substantial writing and podcasting research on traditional folk music in the UK, and his performance is often described as both entertaining and informative.
He is also the founder and editor of Tradfolk.co, a website that focuses on the traditional music and ritualistic culture of England.
