Invisible Folk Club core podcasts create an ambience somewhere between a folk club and a workshop. We want to entertain and educate through music and conversation. Egos are parked outside, everybody is treated the same. We do not record in a 'proper' studio, we simply set up the Zoom recorder in a terraced cottage in the heart of England and off we go. It is literally a cottage industry! We create a convivial atmosphere in which the musicians soon forget about the microphones. Then the spirit, talent, skill and enjoyment can shine through.

    Invisible Folk and the Arts Council

    Invisible Folk and the Arts Council

    Since Spring 2019 Invisible Folk are proud to have been the recipients of four Arts Council Grants.
    In this podcast Jon Bickley talks about our relationship with the Arts Council and how that has enabled us to commission new compositions, new performances and to inject some money into the folk music community. You'll also hear some great music; without Arts Council funding it would never have existed.

    Sabine Baring-Gould @ the Invisible Folk Club

    Sabine Baring-Gould @ the Invisible Folk Club

    Singer/Songwriters Jim Causley and Miranda Sykes joined narrator John Palmer (director of the critically-acclaimed Vaughan Williams anniversary 'From Pub to Pulpit' Cathedral tour) to talk us through a new show entitled 'Ghosts, werewolves and countryfolk - the songs and stories of Sabine Baring-Gould' 
    Polymath and Victorian superstar Sabine Baring-Gould (1834-1924) was, amongst many other things, a best-selling novelist most notably for stories of ghosts, werewolves and Norse myths. Despite wide ranging interests he felt the most important part of his life was collecting songs from Devon and Cornwall, amassing more than 2000 songs. In the show Miranda, Jim and John interweave some of those songs with anecdotes from Baring-Gould's astonishing life and stories. Ticket info from https://www.mirandasykes.com/baring-gould-centenary/
    Songs (in order of appearance):
    Jim Causley & Miranda Sykes - My Lady's Coach
    Jim Causley & Miranda Sykes - Cottage Well Thatched
    Jim Causley & Miranda Sykes - Last of the Singers
    All songs Trad/Arr Causley & Sykes
