Bringing folk music back to family rooms, front porches, and backyards is a great way to renew family culture. Watch these three brothers jam in their room at home. What a great use of time instead of sitting in front of a screen or watching sports all day on the tube.
What if families decided to host folk sessions at their homes, invited experienced musicians, and had the younglings play along with them? I know families that are already doing this and contributing to a a flourishing family culture.
The quote below is from Willie Nelson:
“So I grew up loving country music . It was everywhere then, and it’s everywhere now. It comes from the soul of America, but it has gone around the world…But the beautiful thing is, Texas is still full of of dancehalls, and some people still play music on their front porches and in their living rooms on a Saturday night.”
