Two wonderful alt-folk and trad folk releases that I’ve mastered here recently. First up is ‘The Frog, The Mouse, The Ship, The Cabin Boy’ by @bitybooker.bsky.social which is something else. And second is the superb compilation ‘Sing Yonder 2’ curated by @karlsinfield.bsky.social. Big recommends.

As a researcher of cross-cultural anthropology, huge amounts of texts and books would be otherwise entirely inaccessible to me.
