An Introduction to A Folk Song A Day | On 24th June 2010 – Midsummer’s Day – acclaimed singer, Jon Boden, will launch an ambitious new project – A Folk Song A Day. Every day for one year Jon will post a traditional song online to promote the art of ‘social’ (or communal) singing. Now largely confined to football grounds and places of worship, social singing was once the domain of public houses throughout the land. Ending with 12 digital albums, containing a total of 365 songs, Jon Boden will also be providing a unique, traditional folk song resource for those looking for inspiration ; social singing made possible by contemporary technology. | 9 6 10 | Free | View In iTunes |

I have known this song since my childhood
I have known this song since my childhood half a century ago. I can remember my dad singing it - he was a collector of folk sings and a fiddler player. Now I am going to research where it was collected and who collect it.
Jon, what a lovely, generous idea particularly in these difficult times.

Looking forward to hearing lots of great songs. Thanks Mr B
Beautiful and moving!
New to folk music, I thought I would give this a go to see what I was missing. Simply beautiful, such a moving and soulfull voice! Touching songs recorded in a way that you cannot fail to move you! Looking forward to tomorrow!
