New England Folk Music Archives
Thursday, December 3rd, 2009We just stumbled upon this site and thought we’d share a link – Check out the New England Folk Music Archives
The site describes itself as follows:
The New England Folk Music Archives preserves, promotes and documents the ongoing cultural legacy of folk music and its connections to New England through education, collaboration and entertainment.
Based on collections from the 1960′s era folk revival stretching to the present the establishing collections include photographs, recordings, and memorabilia from The Club 47, the Cambridge MA folk music community, The Newport Folk Festival, and The Old Vienna Kaffeehaus.
Over the coming months The New England Folk Music Archives will be establishing a dynamic web presence and presenting public events to engage audiences and scholars in the rich world that is folk music in New England.
We look forward to checking out this great concept as it comes together!
