The Charm of Folk Music
Folk music, often seen as the soulful echo of our culture’s heart and history, carries the stories and emotions of the people within its melodies and lyrics. Originating from the times when history was oral, folk music has evolved but always maintained its core identity as the music of the masses. Baby Boomers grew up with icons, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Peter, Paul and Mary, and Joni Mitchell who used their music to influence social change. Their songs became anthems for peace, equality, and justice, echoing beyond their musical notes into the hearts of a generation clamoring for change. Our experts will explore in this area of the site where folk music effected how many of our generation think and feel today.
Today, folk music’s influence extends into popular media, enhancing narratives in films and TV shows with its authentic and poignant soundtracks. Its rustic charm is also a popular choice for advertising, connecting brands with authenticity and tradition. Folk music remains a vital part of the world’s musical landscape, continuously evolving while staying true to its roots. It tells the story of humanity, one song at a time, bridging the past with the present, and inviting everyone to partake in its timeless narrative.

Hello to you listening where your feet touch the ground! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey Christmas Day and your host, Diane Wyzga. Years ago I learned to tell this story by heart because it became extra special to me when I was dating a fellow named Alan who took me on a cross-country skiing weekend at the Garnet Hill Lodge in upstate New York. Since then not a Christmas goes by that I don’t get to tell it in domestic abuse shelters, libraries, family gatherings, anywhere that story is welcome.…
