It's catch-up time. The Invisible Folk Club radio show is currently syndicated to eight community or local stations, six based in the UK with the other two mainland Europe. Jon Bickley presents the show, Steve Yarwood is Producer.
Nothing in the broad church of trad folk, roots or Americana is off limits, there are so many shades. Our show features established artists, rising stars, quality new music, blasts from the past.
It's Part 2 of our festive trilogy, so this is Christmas, the most wonderful time of the year, so they say. The music we have chosen reflects the many faces of Christmas, mostly smiling faces but not all.
