Invisible Folk Club radio No172

It's catch up time. This Invisible Folk Club radio show went out live to four community stations across England.  Twelfth Night has been and gone. A Wassail song is unlike other Christmas music, it does not celebrate the nativity, it celebrates the New Year. 'Wassail' is an olde English word for a toast similar to 'Good Health'           Here we come a-wassailing           Among the leaves so green,           Here we come a-wand'ring           So fair to be seen.           Love and joy come to you,           And to you your wassail, too,           And God bless you, and send you           A Happy New Year,           And God send you a Happy New Year. Nothing in the broad church of folk related music is off limits, there's many shades of folk, ours is an eclectic mix. https://invisiblefolkclub.com/ has a listening guide to our show Watersons - Here We Come A-wassailing Watersons - Apple Tree Wassail Waterson_Carthy - Jacobstowe Wassail Merry Hell - When We Meet Again Clarke Camilleri - More & More Diana Stone - Fallen Stranger The Chair - Margaret Davidson The Chair - Turn The Handle & The Work Wife Benjamin Lazar Davis - What If I Martin Green ft Becky Unthank - I Saw the Dead Kris Drever - Poor Man's Son Jason Doll-Steinberg - 1790 Jon Bickley/Invisible Folk Club Band - I Can Hear Voices The Left Outsides - Gower Wassail
