Frontline Folklore

Celebrated artist and folk tradition champion Ben Edge has spent the past few years visiting folk festivals and traditional events around the UK. He's now compiled a film from recordings he made during his visits called Frontline Folklore and it's warm, celebratory and just wonderful. 

If this sort of thing is your bag, do check it out. Here's the link for Vimeo. To get a taste of the sort of thing he's been witnessing, watch this short video:
   

I do mention his film in my latest miscellaneous meander video on Youtube as well as my thoughts on modern paganism, some video of a tree falling during Storm Henke and the fact that we've had waxwings appear in our part of the Chiltern Hills. A rare migrant and a very pretty bird.
