FOLK New England Preserving the ongoing cultural legacy of folk music HomeOur Mission SAVING OUR REGIONAL HERITAGE IN MUSIC When we call ourselves New Englanders we lay claim to traditions that stretch back across the generations and all along the landscapes we love. Constant among these is the unbroken thread of song that binds the elements of our cultures together over the ages. Stretching from Indian chants to lullabies sea shanties broadsides folk hymns fiddle dance tunes ballads blues and ragtime all the way to the modern folk revivals this is a living legacy that is still touching the hearts of young people in the 21st century at festivals on dance floors and wherever family and friends gather in song. Folk New England is our way of keeping faith with these traditions.
