Folk Music, Song & Dance Glossary

Click here for information about the waulking song tradition that inspired the story of Skylark Island and her coming-of-age tradition. The Broad Cloth is very much a folk project, and we welcome both live traditional music, and links to cool playlists, and anything in between. Write your own waulking song, dance your own dance or teach us a traditional one from your community.
